Very accurate & reads quickly. Loses one star because the probe is supposed to clip into the base when not in use but mine pops out. Not a big enough deal for me to return it, since it serves its primary function just fine. The audible readout is a little superfluous, but my eyesight isn't bad, so I may not be the target market.
EDIT: I have since amended my review, since I was able to get the receiving clip bent back into place without much effort. It appears to have been caused during packaging.
As far as the probe is concerned the performance is 100% acceptable.
I would like to make a special note on this review of Kizen's customer service. Within just a couple days after my initial review I was contacted and offered a free replacement of the probe for experiencing the defect. As I did not need this because of the fix I implemented, I decided to come edit this review. The customer service pushed it from 4 stars to 5. Although I did not need the replacement I appreciated the concern of Kizen for my poor initial experience. I would recommend them to anyone and will do business with them again in the future since they truly pay attention to the needs of their customers.

Rusts quickly & not actually a "lifetime warranty"
We've had this for just over two years and used it fewer than a dozen times. We always washed it carefully by hand, taking care not to submerge it in water or let water run over the whole thing (even though it's supposedly waterproof). However, it just stopped working, even with brand new batteries, and it seems likely that the cause is rust. The battery compartment as well as the screws holding the body together have all started rusting (see photos). When we contacted Kizen customer support, they said this was an older version that had been discontinued and was no longer under warranty. So I guess a "lifetime" warranty refers to the lifetime of the version of a product, which may change every few years. So much for their "smooth & frustration free experience with our 100% LIFETIME WARRANTY and 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE" - what a joke! Avoid this company!
