Not sure why I can't post where I originally posted this, but here goes anyway.
I received a new Maverick 733 and found one probe bad, sent an email and no response, sent another one and I just got an email from them, said they didn't get first email and will send a probe out asap. Nice to see good customer service. Al

It should be considering the price of the Mav 733 and that fact that the probes break all the time, especially if you wash them with soapy water. I have Mavs but have been throughly disappointed in they're quality and durability. However, they seem to be accurate when working properly. Its good to hear the service is up to par.
I've had Mavericks for years without issue. However, they do specifically say not to wash them with soapy water. I wipe them down with a paper towel dampened with bleach-based sanitizing solution.

You shouldn't get the probe wires wet or you will have problems. Only wash the actual part of the probe that goes into the food and keep moisture away from the top of that part when washing it.
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

Their customer service is really good. They can be slow at emails, and they can be fast. I suppose it depends on email volume and when you catch them. I corresponded with Nikki when I needed to reach them and she was very helpful. I had them not respond to my initial email, then they responded very quickly to my second email.
