Title: Improved my cooking tremendously
Review: I couldn’t be happier with the CHEF iQ 2 Probes! These are a fantastic addition to my kitchen tools, making cooking more precise and stress-free. The probes are incredibly accurate, giving real-time temperature readings that ensure my dishes come out perfect every time. Whether I’m grilling steaks or slow-cooking a roast, the dual-probe setup allows me to monitor multiple items or track the ambient temperature of my oven or grill simultaneously.The smart connectivity is a standout feature. Pairing the probes with the CHEF iQ app was seamless, and the app itself is user-friendly with plenty of helpful features like cooking guides and alerts. I love that I can monitor my cooking remotely—no more hovering over the stove or grill! The build quality is also impressive; the probes feel sturdy and durable, and the cables are long enough for convenience.Overall, these probes have elevated my cooking game, making it easier to achieve consistent, professional-quality results. If you’re serious about cooking or just want a reliable tool to take the guesswork out of meal prep, I highly recommend the CHEF iQ 2 Probes!

Title: These are my new favorite toy!
Review: Works like you'd hope and expect them too. Wifi works well with good signal and is back and forth with weak signal, that's to be expected. Keep hub close to probes and phone will connect to wifi cloud if away.Used may 6 times now. Great results, loud speaker.I use these at work and home. I love them

Title: Super awesome
Review: This thing comes with recipes, automatic cooking schedules, manual cooking schedule, alerts to flip or when your almost done it even estimates a complete time. Totally changed my smoking game. Definitely suggested for wood smokers. Pellet oven users probably have this built into their outdoor oven so I'm not sure if it's needed. The Bluetooth connection isnt great through the thick steel but it automatically switches to WiFi and that works perfectly for me. I also have strong WiFi.

Title: BEST ON THE MARKET!!
Review: I researched all these type wireless thermometers on YouTube. I found that this particular brand CHEF IQ is more of what is needed with the cook or chef in mind. It is the thinnest diameter probe I could find ,which is a must for thin cuts and fish. Most probes out there are bulky and more like a small broom stick which is not what you want. It is simple to set up and the app is well designed. There are so many features that it would take a week to list them all. It stores you history setting, loads of pre-programmed recipes and you can also program your own custom settings which is the feature I love best. The smart hub talks to you and lets you know all the info/data need for your perfect meal and I'm mean PERFECT! I'm a fanatic when it comes to perfectly cooked meals and this CHEF IQ nails it every time. Its such a relief to know your meals will become worry free with no panic if the desired temperatures are not met. I bought more of these CHEF IQs for family members because I was sooo impressed. Turn your meals into professional chef quality meals. I'm not impressed very easy but this is an amazing device. You'll thank yourself after you buy one. 👍👍👍👍

Title: Impossibly bad product with bad service. Update 11/2/24
Review: I wish there were negative stars. I wish there was a way to express how absolutely awful this product is. And how awful yet somehow smugly self righteous the company behind the product is. Both of my probes were broken (as described below)The geniuses after weeks sent me 1 (one) probe. So. I’ve been down to 1. I simply don’t use it anymore. Stopped thinking about it because of how bad it is. I made the mistake of trying to use it today after months of ignoring it. Fully charged “replacement probe” base station and probe are connected so long as I don’t do something silly like stick the probe in a piece of meat. Then the connection is lost, base station within 1 foot of the probe. No connection. Super helpful. Into the garbage it goes. Avoid it at all costs.This was somehow highly recommended. I opted for it over the Meater because candidly it was cheaper, well reviewed etc. it was a mistake. When it first arrived it was great. Did a quick cook on my grill with it seemed to work well. The interface was clear if a bit too busy (I don’t need recipes from my thermometer thank you). A week later. I used it to reverse sear a 2.5” thick rib steak. It ruined the steak. Temp reading is easily 10-15% off. So I tried again. This time a brisket. Same result. So I sent a note to their customer service. Explaining the issue. Close to a month later I got a reply. To wit. “can you send a pic of it in boiling water along with what the app shows?” Those pics are attached to this review. Same issue with both probes. You’ll note if you look at the pics that the probe has water boiling at 184F, you’ll also note that the “ambient” sensor (a PId on the non meat side of the probe) sitting in the same boiling pot reads 189F… this is of course why my steaks were ruined. I sent the pics to customer service. A few weeks later a new probe arrived, not a replacement unit. One single solitary #1 probe arrived… it is similarly inaccurate. It also throws a huge amount of faults and warnings. Both probes tell me they’re either out of range or over temperature. I was attempting to use them this evening to roast chicken at 375. The probe struggled to connect to the base station 4 feet away and when it connected threw “over temp” warnings the entire time. I eventually just gave up. Complete trash. Backed by slow unhelpful customer service.

Title: Works until it doesn’t
Review: Bought this based on others reviews. Easy to setup and get cooking. I bought the WiFi hub with two probes. Used about 6 times in three months. Probe 1 stopped working and wouldn’t connect to hub. Hub doesn’t even show it being available. Looked online for solution, no luck. Reset hub several times, no luck.Contacted customer service, be aware their number is automated and couldn’t get in touch with actual person. Have emailed multiple times, after two weeks they said send pics of hub and probe for replacement. Two months later and nothing is getting resolved.Two stars is for the fact that one probe works and the app is nice. I would give four stars had customer service been more responsive and followed through*UPDATE * finally had customer service contact me and they are mailing me a new probe. Updating to 4 stars.
