Reviews
RFX Wireless Probe is great
"Recently purchased the RFX Wireless Probe Starter Kit. I have cooked fish twice using the probes. The RFX is easy to set up and allows me to set temps in the app to alert me when I have different sizes of fish, yet allowing each to cook to the perfect temp. The RFX range and signal strength is excellent. I can monitor the cooking temps with my fish on the grill while I am in the kitchen getting the rest of the meal ready."
Learning curve for sure, but
"Learning curve for sure, but once you get it you get it. You either need to buy the battery bank or get a Thermacell pack on Amazon with a straight dc to usb-c adapter and a dumb male to female dc cable. The fan will not spin unless it gets 12v. Your portable battery pack you already own won’t get the job done. Great product, great ecosystem. I won’t consider any other brand."
The system I have looks
"The system I have looks and feels top notch! I haven’t used it yet but I have a friend that has (he recommended it). The setup was pretty simple (for me) which was awesome. Very good customer service and they ARE interested in helping you if you have ANY issues. I will definitely look into purchasing more from this company."
Second one I've bought
"I used a single RFX meat for a year or so, but finally broke down and bought a second one (I should've purchased the set of 4 in the first place). The RFX probes are the only ones that work flawlessly. I've tried every other major brand and a couple of obscure ones. None of them stay connected the way they should. When I use them correctly (I've goofed a couple times) the RFX work perfectly. Don't buy any other meat probe than the RFX."
I ruined a probe. . . they replaced it!
"I love RFX! No doubt about it. Works great, BUT the probes have one issue - don't expose them to too high of a temperature! I ruined a probe by (thoughtlessly) trying to use it in hot oil. The wired probe is fine, but the overheat kills the electronics. So only use the probe inserted into meat TO THE LINE. Now a plug for Thermoworks. Once we figured out what happened, they offered to replace the probe at a generous discount. Go Thermoworks!"
"Only used once so far, but the internet went down mid cook. The blue tooth options kept disconnecting. And probs went inactive. I hope the next cook goes better. But they worked great when the internet worked"
Perfect Tri Top
"Completed my first cook with the RFX, everything turned out great. I was very impressed by the accuracy and reliability of the system. I've only used it twice so far but everything worked perfectly. Wired probes are always a bit of a hassle, especially if you have multiple pieces of meat grilling at the same time. The wireless probes make it to look easier to maneuver things around on the grill without the worry over crossing lines. The app is a bit dated if I'm being honest. This is definitely the weakest point of the whole system. That said, it worked give, though it could be quite a bit more user friendly."
Wireless probe on RFX
"Hi, i have a wireless probe my wife got me at Christmas and i did a low and slow cook with a maximum temperature of 300F in my pellet grill. There were two probes in the meat and now one of the probes will only display one temperature reading. I do like the unit, i just hope they will last. i just bought another two probe set which is why i am getting this review as i do like them if they will work for me. Thanks"
Only used it a couple
"Only used it a couple times so far but works great! Not a single drop out issue. Had 3 meaters that failed and this is so much more reliable. Could use improvement on the user interface to make it look better but everything is perfectly functional"
Almost Perfect
"Works flawlessly except Looses connectivity. when the protein your cooking requires being wrapped in aluminum foil. Work around Blindly Push probe through the foil into your protein …But if your protein requires precise probe placement to get an accurate reading of doneness (i. e. Brisket) you are at a disadvantage"
