Escali DH7 Infrared Surface and Folding Probe Thermometer

This may be my new go to thermometer for cooking. Starting with the probe, this is a standard probe thermometer. I found it to be accurate when testing on boiling and frozen water and against another thermometer. The longer length of the probe is great when used at my grill, keeping my hands further from the food and heat. The probe automatically turns on the thermometer when turned into the open position and has almost a full 180º The Infrared thermometer is easy to use and I found it great for testing the searing pan. It would also be useful for monitoring food temps in a staging areas. The readings are quick, taken by pointing and holding the IR button, and lock into the display when you let go. The display on the thermometer is large and easy to read. The overall size is also large, so it may be cumbersome for some who have limited dexterity. It uses two CR2032 batteries that were included in the package but were not installed. Overall I would recommend this product

This is the best thermometer! It has a rapid read option with the probe and takes much less time than my old one. The option for the infrared is so great. The digital display is easy to read even when it isn’t bright out when I am grilling. I couldn’t ask for a better one!
