I have a Maverick ET-73 ... It's ok.
There's been some debate about the range, some people complained of it not having the advertised range, some found that some units were missing a internal antenna, sent them back to Maverick, they put one in, then the people tried them again, and said it didn't make any difference. Plus there were people (even on the Maverick side) that said the internal was redundant... based on the design.
So what's that say....Uhhhh... I dunno.
I say.... The Maverick is a decent wireless thermo for the price, with desirable features ( pit, meat, set points, alarms), 50~75 range in good conditions, nice battery life.
I like it, and never sent mine back.... even though it was missing the "said" ...."necessary" ....internal antennae. :dunno: :dunno:
