Perfect
Battery
The battery life is very inconsistent. Have changed pros of times CHEF iQ supports their product.
But still not happy and have to use multiple probes. The accuracy is good, but it does make it difficult to complete a long cook.

Not so IQ
Constant connection problems, probes with inaccurate temps. This company bills itself as tech forward but so many issues with the actual tech. I wanted these to work so much but overall disappointed
As a Chef I rely on temp so much but these devices lack reliability

Ok device
Probes are not accurate. I have had these 2 probes for about a year. If I follow them my food is overcooked. I now take it off when it’s 10 degrees before the device tells me it is ready to remove from the heat. Customer support was unhelpful.
Will not close
I’ve finished my Cook, but I cannot close the app and every time I do, by swiping up in iOS it’s simply reopens. I’m at the point where I probably will have to uninstall it and reinstall it because I cannot shut it down. I’ve tried turning everything off within the app to no avail
Do you want to be a good cook?
Wow! What a tool! Easy to use, accurate and easy to clean. We’ve purchased 4 - one for our home in Arizona, one for our home in North Dakota, one for our son in law and one for our granddaughter. It’s raised our recipes to new levels as temperature makes all the difference!Thanks
Way too complicated and wants your info
Why do I need to set up an account in order to see the temperature of my food? And why should I have to have WiFi and be close? What about camping for example? I’ll stick to a simple insta-thermometer because this simplifies nothing.
Very accurate temps
I’ve tried a lot of wireless brands and this one is extremely accurate on temp readings. I’m glad we got 3 of them and honestly we probably could use another 3. I like the fact that you can set temperatures and alerts three different probes. Each one individual individually operates on its own. Downside is Tin foil interferes with the Bluetooth and wireless signals so keep that in mind when wrapping your shoulders or briskets.

Horrible all the way around
The batteries won’t stay charged. The connectivity is horrible when they do work it’s good but that’s about 50% of the time I would not recommend it.
Set up
Very difficult to set up my account! Keep saying wrong password. Then click send password link. Never set link.
Useless
Battery life sucks
Temp readings
Just did a brisket used both Chef Iq, MEATER Pro and a digital thermometer and Chef Iq was 10 degree lower than the other 2. No wonder I overcooked the brisket flat I made for the guys at work. Very disappointed in this thermometer.🤬
Marginal
The app works well and probes are well built. However, there are glitches with the connection.

Only goes to 212F, WAAYY too chatty
Useless for more advanced cooking like candying, canning, or decarbing. Super annoying for these cooks.
Need higher temp, & option to deliver info QUIETLY without constant interaction.
It’s cooking, not a dang video game. 😑

Connect
Probs don’t stay connected and the battery life on one is longer than the other in the same case.
Perfect meat every time!
This thermometer has been great for all kinds of meats. No more overdone pork or fears of underdone chicken!
Troubles with charge
Spending to much time try to keep it connected. Spend 12 hours charging and it still say low charge
Best BBQ accessories
This is great when BBQing multiple types of meats and fish. Tell when to turn over, when temp is reached, just awesome!
Little under cooked
It’s not as accurate as it should be. 4x’s it under cooked my chicken breast saying it was done but it needed about 3-5 more minutes. The Meater is more accurate but doesn’t hold up to continuous use.
