THERMOPRO, NOT GOOD

[jbfromtennessee]

I had a probe go wacky three weeks after i purchased a tp20. i have had three contacts via email over the past month without being resolved. the first they said they never received, the second they ask for when i bought, date i bought and who i bought it from which i supplied all details. today i get a email after another week asking me what model number which i had already given all the info i had...i made my last response to them stating it would be my last. they can send me one or not. i will buy one more probe on line and then that will end my thermopro experience. not worth it...

I have a tp08 I got for Christmas and the BBQ probe went bad after the third time I used it. I called customer service there and explained all the tests and trouble shooting I did. They were great sent me out a new probe free no problems. The guy from therm pro is on here all the time. I'm sure he will take care of you

One more thing try calling and have your order number. They are excellent customer service. I do not trust email

My tp08 probes ice bath tested normal but one goes wacky when heated. Pulled up TP sight and started a chat with them. No waiting and super CS and they’re mailing me new probes straight away. They honor the lifetime probe warranty in my experience.

I don't trust Email either.
Several times I've requested samples of Q via Email.
I haven't gotten a lick, nor a sniff of any yet.
So I don't think Email works well. :confused:

I've posted this in another thread. But ThermoPro customer service stepped up for me. They sent me a new TP-17 thermometer as they had no probes in stock. The TP-17 has newer, beefier probes. They told me the TP-17 probes were compatible, and just take them from the TP-17 and use them in TP-20. I've used them several times with the TP-20, and have not had a single instance of the wild temp fluctuations, or the jump to HHH. In fact, these probes seem to run more accurately as I am getting cooks finished to true medium rare where the original probes seemed to be 5-10 degrees higher than actual. The TP-20 is working as it should, and I trust it again.

Thank You for the update.

I refuse to use email when trying to resolve a cs problem. I want to talk to a warm body that has the ability and authority to make things right. My refusal includes hanging up on any farmed out Southeast Asian operators named "Bob",with an accent so heavy I have no clue what he is saying...JJ

I have a TP-20 purchased in 2017 . Both the probes are bad . One jumps up and down 30 degrees around 170 ,,, took it out of service , now the other one is off by 15 degrees , checked with my TP-03 . Need to get them replaced .
Also was wondering ,, I'm in the market for a training collar . Does the forum discount apply ?

 

[thermopro]

For the probe issue, please contact our customer service.

As for the training collars, yes I believe the forum discount should apply to some models but I urge you to move quickly on that as we're separating the companies.

"Thermopro, not good"....Not true.

I've always considered emailing someone's customer service as being passive aggressive. If a phone number is given and you have a chance to actually talk with someone, take advantage of that and do so.

I had issues with my probes weeks after receiving my TP-20. I made one <5 minute phone call and only days later, brand new probes arrived in the mail and they're still working like a champ to this day.
