Awesome System

This system works flawlessly. It connects fast and stays connected. Notifications keep you updated on the cooking process of when to flip and then remove to rest and more.
This system has been well worth the extra cost over another system that I returned that had connection issues.
I’m glad that I bought this.

I actually cook well now

Before the probes, cooking on the grill was a struggle. I have to be honest, these probes are one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. Chicken and burgers come out perfect. Absolutely love this purchase.

Use to work great

It is a great product. However something in the phone app continually crashes to the point it doesn’t even open now. I own several products and I love them. The app opens on my computers just not my phone. I don’t get it. Tried to unload it and reloading. No luck. Hope it gets fixed soon.

Trash

Stop connect in two months

Loving it!

I should’ve been using this a long time ago my Lord this product is incredible. It will never leave my kitchen.

Stopped Connecting to Blue Tooth

Had Chef IQ wireless thermometers for two years now and they have a full charge, I am using the same phone, but they have stopped connecting to blue tooth. They have instantly turned into unreliable paperweights.

Waste of money

Probe will not register… what a waste.

Loses connection

This thing loses connection ten or more times during a cook I spend more time reconnecting this pos then I do cooking

No landscape mode

For the love of god, please make your app work in landscape mode on the iPad; it’s 2026. Portrait Orientation Lock is turned off - all my other apps rotate fine.

Great for 6 months, the dead! No supporting

I loved it for the first few months then the battery wouldn’t last through a recipe. Now the base is having the same issue. When I asked for help i was told it was out of warranty.

Decent, but not great

I had to reconnect it to the Wi-Fi many times, I was hoping for a more seamless operation.

Useable, but not intuative

The app needs to be more intuitive.

Used to be good

I bought this wireless thermometer and have gotten good results with it.
However, the mandatory app has gone from a useful tool to an obnoxious ad.

Very temperamental

I have had the CHEF iQ for a little over a year. The charging function is horrible. It seems like I can rarely get the unit and the three probes charged properly. In fact probe number one when it is fully charged only lasts about five minutes while cooking. I don’t use that one anymore. I am down to probe two and three and now when I charge the unit, the chime goes off incessantly. I would not recommend this product.

Very impressed

All I wanted was meat thermometers that worked. These probes go above and beyond. Super impressed with the app and all of the awesome features.

Grilling ESSENTIAL for perfection!

I’ve been grilling for almost 70 years (now 80) and I thought I had everything under control until I started to use Chef IQ. I just finished grilling two whole tenderloins R-MR and these probes and app are amazing. I’ve used them a lot before but don’t usually make such large meals. To say “perfection” would be a gross understatement. I used two probes because front and rear positions vary on the grill and BOTH came out perfectly. ANYONE who wants predictable and EASY results absolutely needs ChefIQ. I’ve tried otters but this is far superior! Bon appetite!

I love this pot

I’ve been using this pot the last 5 years and I absolutely love it, I won’t trade it for the entire world because cooking never was easier than now with the chef IQ

Time inaccurate

Cooking with both probes is frustrating. With both probes in the same roast probe 1 says 4 hours until done, probe2 says 14 minutes. Total time was 2.5 hours. The temperature is fine. But don’t rely on the estimated time. This was a gift so I can’t return it.

You product sucks

Your product sucks. I have asked repeatedly for a refund of this junk and all I get is we’re on it. If you won’t refund at least send me a new set! You asked for pictures I’ve got a ton of them!
Haha! It won’t let me post! Even you review section sucks!

The Best chef’s tool on the market

This is a game changer with the recent BBQ massive Stakes & Chops ( Tomahawks, Cowboys & The Tuscan 4” Porterhouses.
