I'm still waiting for my 6 year old Thermopop to fail, so I can justify upgrading to a god tier therm that I don't actually need.
I love Thermoworks and will gladly upgrade to the newest greatest model...when I need to. In the meantime, 1.5 seconds is fast enough for me.
The durability of even the Thermopen's little brother is legend. I put my Thermopop through the washer and dryer on accident and it didn't seem to care one bit. (Still reads in 1.5 seconds and I checked it in an ice bath and boiling water ...it's dead on after all these years).
Their products are well worth the money, so if any of y'all don't already have a Thermoworks product, they come highly recommended. I firmly believe everyone should have one. Even if it's the "little brother" to the Almighty Thermopen.
