I have a Thermapen and am very pleased with it's performance. I also have a .Maverick ET-732 which is adequate, but seems to be lacking in the probe durability area. I am considering a TW 8060 to replace the Mav. Has Thermoworks ever put these on sale as they do the pens? My Mav is working for the time being so it is not imperative to replace it immediately If they don't ever go on sale, I will buy now and be ready for the next time the Mav goes down..

Never seen them on sale. The 8060 is very expensive compared to the Mav, but then, if the Mav doesn't work it is not much use. To get the high temp probes and wireless I think the Thermoworks is close to $200. Let us know what config you go with and what the costs are...ThanksDelta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

@Budgeezer, thanks. I think this is a great unit, with quality probes. Only know one person who has Thermoworks probes, they are very happy. Did you look at anything that provides the wireless interface like the Mav?Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

I don't think there is a remote option yet, but after burning through a couple cheaper probes I was willing to do without in exchange for durability. I did read somewhere that they were working on a blue tooth option. Hopefully that is the case.

Had ordered this. Went with the BBQ kit and the thing works great. Termoworks has a great customer service. They missed a probe when packing and when we called them they shipped next day with a Saturday delivery. They can't be beat!Lets keep the beer cold and the eggs burning!
