Shoddy construction
Up until just recently I had been using a Sharper Image All-in-One Grill Fork which I liked very much. Unfortunately it was damaged beyond repair when it was accidentally immersed in water so I purchased a CDN DBBQ212 Digital Thermometer BBQ Fork as a replacement. Right out of the package the construction appeared to be a bit dodgy, but I was willing to give it a shot based on the reasonable price. As soon as the “on” button was depressed, my suspicions were confirmed. It didn’t work, or at least, not the way it was supposed to. Several lines that make up the 3 digit characters were not working, making it almost impossible to tell the difference between the numbers 8, 3 and 0, 5, and 6, or 7 and 9. The only reason these forks exists is to give accurate cooking temperatures, and if you can’t tell the difference between 185° and 135°, what’s the point? Also, even though the only button is labeled “on/off” it only appears to turn the digital display on; the off function doesn’t work. After several days of looking at the crippled digital display I pulled the batteries to put it out of its misery.
