I was a little concerned as these looked a bit different in the pictures than the original ones that came with the grill, and indeed they are. However, they are a direct drop in replacement and work perfectly.

The new grease splash guards seem lighter weight than the original but I can't confirm that. The build quality and coating seem first rate and I will continue to use these replacement parts. They are better than the parts I could get locally.

I happened upon the "Talking Wirless Grill Thermometor ("TWGT")in Lowes $29). Being a gadget guy I could not pass it up. Got it home, put in the batteries and it worked perfectly. It immediately measured room temp within 1 degree of my digital room thermometer. I Cooked "Beercan Chicken" on the patio grill that weekend. Put the probe into the thigh as directed and placed the base unit on my kitchen counter about 40 feet away. Opened a cold beer and watched the info on the base unit as I prepared other food in the kitchen. No need to periodically go out to the grill and check the chicken. Instead I watched football and the unit as it measured temp up and up. When it was time, it told me "It's almost done." Headed to the patio when the unit told me "It's done". The TWGT worked great. I was so impressed I went and bought a second one to give as a gift.

Then I tried to use it a second time. I had steak marinated and ready for the grill. Football on TV. Turned the TWGT on but the base was not getting a signal from the probe. I changed batteries, hit the reset button on the probe, shook it, cursed it, prayed. Nothing made it work. I even opened the one I had bought to give as a gift it did not work either. Both units and probes were on but not communicating with each other. I gave up and cooked the steak the old way by trying to time it, lifting the grill and testing it. Very dissappointing.

Fortunately for me, I love gadgets and did not give up. Later, I kept experimenting, trying to figure out what was wrong. I went to Amazon.com and read a review saying you have to hit the reset button, but I had already tried that too many times without success. Then I figured it out. When you turn on the units, if they do not talk to each other, you have to press the reset buttons on BOTH THE PROBE AND THE MAIN UNIT. I'd never noticed the main unit also has a reset button. I turned on both units, pressed both reset buttons one after the other and --SUCCESS! Both units and their probes started talking. Again they were within 1 degree of room temp. I cannot wait to grill out this weekend! Maybe on Sat. for the Gators and on Sun. for the Bucs.

Summing it up? Yea. It would be a good idea for OS to put a troubleshooting section in the manual to cover this problem. As it is you need to either figure it out or call OS. I suspect many of these amazingly fun grill gadgets are lying unused in some dissappointed owner's junk drawer. But, if you know the secret (you can probably get the secret if you call OS customer service)this thermometer is fun, and convenient. I won't grill without it. In fact, I will now use both units at the same time for different foods cooked simultaniously (so much for the gift idea). BTW. The unit's voice is female and she speaks multiple languages. My advice set her for French. I don't speak the language but she sure sounds good. :)

I've used this product for almost two years now and really enjoy it. However, I've had problems getting the two parts to sync up, especially after I hadn't used it in a while. There's a really good review in here that walks you through the process of hitting the reset buttons (under the batter cover) on BOTH units, but even this didn't always work. I was ready to go back to a hardwired unit when I found a solution -remove the batteries in both units, wait a few minutes and reinstall. This has worked for me every time. I now store the units with the batteries removed (good idea anyway) and it has worked with no trouble when I reinstall the batteries. Give this a try before you give up. This issue is why I didn't give it 5 stars.

One other thing to be careful about. Keep water away from where the cable enters the probe. Incorrect temp readings can come from water contamination. From other sites, this seems to be a common problem with these wireless thermometers. I clean the probe with a cloth and rinse under the sink, never letting water touch anything but the part of the probe below the loop that enters the meat.

Hope this helps.

We bought this from a local hardware store. Our previous thermometers were the analog instant read types and they've died. We use this 3 to 4 times a week for cooking fish, hamburgers, steaks, poultry and have been extroardinarily pleased with the results each and every time. Now, if I don't use it, I can tell the difference. The fish flakes apart perfectly, the poultry is absolutely not bloody, and the hamburgers and steaks are cooked to temperature. There is a setting to set your own temperature if you don't like the presets.

Make sure to put the probe into the meatiest part of the meat and not touching any bones. Also, don't put the probe directly over the flame (the manual says these things). I angle it towards the front of the grill so that it is almost under the cover. That way I can close the grill but it is not over direct flame. I've cooked from low BBQ temps to High grill and had no trouble with it. It's made making dinner much less of a hassle.

We've not used it in the oven, though it says you can. We had one issue where the base unit lost track of the remote unit. The temperature reading started flashing and it couldn't reconnect. I turned off the base unit and turned it back on and it reconnected with no further problems.

We like ours so much that we bought another one as a gift.

The disparity in opinion on this unit is interesting. I can understand it based on my own experience. I couldn't get the transmitter to sync with the base unit. I fooled with it for awhile and finally got it working. I saw a lot of information on the internet related to trouble syncing the unit, so I took the batteries out again and then could get it to sync again. I was at the point of throwing up my hands and sending it back with a nasty note, but finally realized the following:

The user's manual is terrible, but here is how I finally got the transmitter/base unit to talk:

1. With no batteries in the transmitter, install the batteries in the base unit.

2. Turn on the base unit.

3. Press LANG to select the language.

4. At this point, the base unit should be working fully. There will be ---displayed as the current temperature on the base unit.

5. Install the batteries in the transmitter.

6. Press the RESET inside the battery cover on the transmitter.

Consistently, the transmitter and base unit synchronized, but it had to be done in this order. The RESET on the base unit or when the temperature probe was plugged into the transmitter did not seem to affect the sync process. The above procedure is consistent with the user's manual, but the manual does not convey how sensitive the process is to the order of the steps.

This is my experience, hopefully it will help others because the manual certainly does not.

This grill cover is okay. At $25, it's worth every penny, but not any more. The material is quite thin and it didn't take long to get a couple of small tears. It looks good, though, and generally serves the purpose of keeping rain and other droppings from the sky off the grill.

The bowtie was in great shape the only problem was it would not fit into the grill so I had to make some modifications (bent the 4 "legs"/prongs to 90 degrees) and then the issue was resolved.

Honest reviews on Broilmaster DPP101 Stainless Steel Bowtie Burner Set for P3/D3

This is the second gas burner I've replaced on my grill. The first time (5 years ago) the replacement fit perfectly. This time, however, I wasn't so lucky. The venturi assembly tubes did not align to the grill ports correctly, causing the entire burner assembly to sit crooked in my grill. I compared the old venturi assembly to the new one, and you can see that they don't match. Rather than send the whole thing back (and waste time taking stuff apart and putting it together a second time), I was able to re-use the old venturi assembly with the new burners and it fit perfectly. I hope that the manufacturer will read this and step up the QA at the factory in Taiwan (the name on the venturi assembly).

Magma Radiant Plate Assembly, A10-105 / A10-205 Marine Kettle Gas Review

Magma Radiant Plate Assembly, A10-105 / A10-205 Marine Kettle Gas Grill, Replacement Part
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

The original Magma gas grill had a metal screen and ceramic 'briquets'. These were always a problem, as the screen would rust away after a few seasons, and the briquets would move about when we went sailing and required the cook to handle a greasy grill, move the sooty briquets back in place, and so forth.

The radiant plate ends all that, and seems to have improved the overall function of the grill.

Probably the best purchase you can make to keep your old Magma gas grill cooking!

The product cleaned up the wood stove to look brand new. I used very little polish and it's obvious that it will last for some time. Very happy with the product.

Best Deals for Rutland Products 72 Liquid Stove & Grill Polish, Black 8 Oz

Sorry for length, but wow, I was absolutely thrilled with this product and I really wish I had taken before and after pictures!!

First, the items needing polished/refinished:

1. Wood stove installed 2 years ago. Had a water leak above the stove which caused bad rusting on the top.

2. Cast iron skillet was on the stove and rusted bad inside and on the bottom.

3. Cast iron tea kettle badly rusted inside.

(All of these have been sitting like this and not been cared for, for about a year. So rust set in good)

Procedure:

1. I wore chemical resistant cleaning gloves. This process can get messy, so wearing the gloves is very helpful for all parts of this. Also have a shop vac, or other vacuum handy.

2. I used Steel Wool #000 to get off the rust on all of the items. This takes some patience but I was surprised after scrubbing off the rust that there was still a black finish underneath and not bare metal. All of it (except for the tea kettle) was surface rust.

NOTE: I was going to use a loose wire brush on my grinder, but after doing it with the steel wool I realized that would have been way overkill and would have probably damaged more than helped. I could see it being useful for somebody with a completely rusted item that goes to bare metal and needs some hardcore cleaning. Still recommend starting with steel wool, maybe coarser grain.

3. Vacuum up multiple times after using the steel wool to clear the surface so you can see what still needs to be done (brush tip works best). I used the steel wool, vacuum, steel wool, vacuum, probably 5-10 times before I was satisfied on each item.

4. Take a cotton cloth dampened with hot water and get any dust residue still on the surface. Wipe down with dry towel.

LET DRY COMPLETELY!!!!!

5. Take a soft cotton cloth, apply the polish directly to the top of the stove or to the cloth and spread it around. Work it in good. Let dry.

6. You can polish it up after it dries if you want with a soft cotton cloth. I started to, but I liked the finish without being polished, very deep black look.

7. After it was dry it didn't really smudge off unless I applied a lot of pressure. I didn't need to use the wood stove that day, but decided I wanted it to cure so I could put the kettles back on. Got it up between 350 degrees and 400 degrees for a good couple of hours. It had a mild odor, but no smoke.

KETTLE AND SKILLET: I did the same steps 1-6 for the kettle and skillet, but here are a few added steps after #6.

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees and put both in upside down to cure inside for 1 hour.

2. Turn off oven and let items cool down in oven. This took along time because they hold heat very well, just go do some other things for awhile.

3. Take them out and lather on some shortening on the cooking surface of the skillet and inside of kettle. I lathered on pretty thick, so they were pretty much a cream color where it was applied.

4. Let sit for 10-15 minutes, I let sit for 30 minutes for good measure :).

5. Take cloth or newspaper and wipe off the excess so your finish looks black again.

6. Put back in the oven at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Turn off oven and let cool again.

7. Take them out and they will look as good as new and ready to be used for cooking!I will probably refinish the pan and kettle every year with the shortening technique because it creates a nice layer between the cast iron finish and your food.

I honestly was so proud at how everything looked I kept telling my wife and she kept laughing, but had to agree that all of the finishes were fantastic.

Still have a little over half the bottle left.

Highly recommended if you couldn't tell. If your situation is similar, do not hesitate with this product!

I don't have a cast iron stove but I do have cast iron grates on a gas cooktop. Those grates were getting pretty discolored and "rusty" looking. Might have something to do with occasionally running them through the dishwasher. I wanted to try to darken them back to a nice deep black so I thought I'd give stove polish a try. It does actually work -sort of. I cleaned the grates thoroughly and then applied the liquid stove polish per the instructions. Then to "set" the polish I put the grates in my gas grill and fired up the heat. The process seemed to work. My cooktop grates are now nice and black once again. However, there is still some occasional rubbing off of the new blacking. Not enough to be a problem; just need to be aware that there could be some traces of black rub off if using a light colored cloth to clean them. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with the way the project turned out and I have lots of polish left over so I can go back and touch up any spots that need freshening up from time to time.
