GoveeLife WiFi Refrigerator Thermometer with Alarm, Wireless Digital Freezer Temperature Gauge with App Control, LCD Display, 2 Years Free Data Export, for Home Kitchen Fridge Hot Tub 2 Pack

Purchased this a few months ago, and have now had a chance to use it and see how well it works. In short - it works very well. Setup is easy (both installing and connecting the sensors to your home network, and configuring the app). The app in particular was reasonably intuitive, which is helpful. There are lots of app settings you can adjust, but the most useful for me is the alarms to alert you if the temperature goes outside a specific range (as in "oops, you left the freezer door open again"). This feature has saved me several times. I got a notification that my deep freezer was at 20 degrees - too warm, but still well in advance of when I would start to lose food.My only suggestion is that the instructions for the placement of the temperature probes could be better. I initially installed them near the top of the freezer cabinet, but that location led to lots of false alarms when the freezer went through its normal defrost cycle. I'd suggest installing the probes a bit down from the top instead. I have mine just above the second shelf down, which seems to be an ideal location. You can't get replacements for the brackets that hold the temperature probes (per Govee), but I was able to pry them off the cabinet wall and reposition them. The adhesive squares that come with the kit stick amazingly well - just make sure the spot you are attaching them to is dry, and you should be good to go.Overall I'm very happy with the units, and would definitely recommend them.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Excellent product...straight forward installation (just like their water detection devices), excellent design and construction. These are monitoring our 4 home freezers with a very impressive range between the sensors and base station. The magnets on the sensor backs are convenient as attached to the freezers. The app has useful details like a historical record of temperatures and the set point warnings to the phone work well. Recommended....Functionality:Just what I needed to ensure freezers are functioning.Build quality:Very well made and designed with many excellent features.Accuracy:Holding steady and appear accurate per our old 'manual' gauges.Connectivity:Spot on from the remote location (garage to 2nd floor study)

Too many negative reviews for such a really good thermometer. I bought this set that came with the hub and 2 thermometers. You can connect up to 30 sensors on one hub. I am now using 4 sensors. Install the app. If u get a message about an update then download it. Follow the directions and connect to your home wifi , 2.4 ghz only is supported. Once that is done move on to connecting the sensor. Open the app and click the plus sign in top right corner. Use search bar for this sensor. It will show a tiny picture of it on the app if you selected the right one. You will get a message to keep phone close to sensor while connecting. Once it is found u will need to depress the side button on the sensor one quick time for it to finish its connection and make sure your bluetooth is on your phone. In settings on the app you will see Remote View, click it. Next screen will show device and the word Bound. Click on Bound this will allow it to connect to your wifi through the hub. Setup is really simple. If I can get these to work in less than 5 minutes u can to. You can rename the sensor and adjust min and max Temps for alerts. Along with how long it has to be at or above the alert level u set before it sends u an alert. I am using these to monitor 3 deep freezers and in one refrigerator with no issues at all. All refrigerators and freezers have different seals and with all of mine I was able to pull the seal loose from the door and ran the cord under the seal and into the unit for a cleaner look. I am not a fan of a cord showing but it beats having batteries exposed to constant sub zero Temps and failing frequently. I have played around with the alert settings and they have not once failed for an alert to my phone. My hub is mounted up high in my garage. It fit perfectly in the outlet for the garage door opener in the ceiling. If u mount it behind the fridge or freezer it will more than likely get a weak signal. I am pleased with these and I do recommend them. The hub does not have a built in battery backup and needs to stay plugged in to constant power. The app is free and has no monthly fees. Lots of features in the app and easy to navigate through. Wish I had these on my freezers before I lost all the food in one of them while I was out of town. Lost about $700 in food, not to mention a nasty smelly cleanup job and all of it could of been avoided with this monitor system.Update. I recommended this to a friend that uses an I phone, they downloaded the app from the play store, don't do that, it wouldn't connect to the hub. Had to delete it and start over using the QR code on the instructions. Everything works now with no issues. Customer support is a real person and they were awesome in their service. These do work like a charm.

This has very accurate temperature reading. If you want to check your freezer's temp remotely, this is challenging to set up. We're still struggling to get it on wifi. Works fine with bluetooth but you need to be nearby to read that on your phone. But overall I like this. Remember that you need to put the display box on the SIDE of your freezer if you want the cord to be on the freezer shelves. If you are happy with the sensor on the door shelves, then you can put the display box on the front of the door.Accuracy:excellentConnectivity:challengingReliability:so far, so goodWhy did you pick this product vs others?:because it ostensibly works with wifi. Still trying.Range:if we can get it to work on wifi, should be indefinite.Functionality:Ideal IF working on wifi.

I love this product. I am always worried that my children are not closing the freezer properly or that the freezer might stop working. This sensor lets me check the freezer temperature on my phone whenever I would like. It has worked reliably for the eight months that I have had it. The app is easy to use and send alert to my phones if the freezer is over a set temperature. This was such a great purchase. I highly recommend this product.
