I just saw one of my Christmas presents - a Maverick ET-72 digital remote thermometer.
I have been wanting a remote thermometer for awhile, but have been turned off by the short life and high replacement costs of the probes (Poulder in particular ) in various reviews. The only review I have been able to find on the Maverick is for the ET-7 Dual Probe unit (excellent review for this model).
Anyone have any first hand experience with this model, especially with probe life and replacement availability ?

Probe life is a direct reflection of how it is handled and used. For example, if you attempt to use the probe outside of its temperature threshold, you will cause it to fail; or if you abrade the probe wires, it will fail. I use polders with no problems; the same with the Maverick, Nu-Temp, and the various Chinese iterations. -- Dave www.davebbq.com
