Hello, how is the temerature on this unit? I bought a Delonghi which I am returning because the max temperature only got to 355 degrees. Very greasy f

I have had no trouble with this product and like it very much. I have not actually checked the temperature, per se, but the food gets done (chicken wings nice an crispy on outside and done on inside) in the time stated. I would highly recommend it. It was also recommended by Americas Test Kitchen which I follow pretty closely. Jan

The markings on the unit itself says 375°F. I just put a candy thermometer in mine with canola oil in it. It was between 365 - 380.

Don't buy temp goes a little higher but not a good buy. Wish I could return.

Art - Save your money. Harley stopped selling these because it hasn't been proven that they work. If you're bike tends to overheat, get an oil cooler. An oil cooler is proven to reduce hot temps by 30 degrees or more. I just put one on my bike. Easy install even for a novice with decent mecahnical ability. Check out Ebay's deals too. I've gotten most of my Harley parts on Ebay. Hope this helps. Jim - 2006 Road King

I had a hard time in colder temps getting hthe unit to an acceptable cooking temperture. I added charcol brickets in the bottom underneath the element. When it gets colder than say 40, I also have found it beneficial to utilize an insulating blanket around the unit. These two proceedures enable me to control the temp to my satisfaction.

Just got one, and works like a charm!! Says in the manual, not to be used below 65F or above 110F.

Well, a lot of them. i had mine go out (as ecotemp said) and i don't think it got below 38f. if you do have a problem with yours im sure they will say it's because you let it freeze. thats what all their complaints are about it seems. and their customer service is non existent, they just said it was all my fault then (get this) he hung up on me. i never raised my voice (but he did) i tried to call back and they would not pick up my call. i will never even think about using them again. good luck!

at room temp 20-22C runs warm to touch but not hot... avoid boxing it in and hot conditions, running nonstop may reduce lifespan...i try not to run it nonstop but if i do it just runs warm and i keep it suspended

Thanks, Joseph! You review and follow-up were really helpful and I'm glad to hear you're still liking the FlipSide after almost a year. While I generally agree that a temperature control doesn't matter much as long as it's hot enough, I find that when it's too hot, the waffle cooks too fast it's not as moist on the inside as I'd like it to be. Can you comment on that?Thanks again!

IF let's off a fair amount of smoke. I was not very happy, and would net rocommend. For me, the problem I had was it got too hot, even on the lowest of settings for my gas burner. Also, it's impossible to clean, without scraping of the coating. the last time I used it was to sear tuna. I let it sit for a day and scrubbed very hard to remove the residue. I used a sponge,then a soappad, becasue the sponge did nothing for the black residue ledt behind. I scrubbed so hard some of the costing rubbed off, and there is still residue left? Hope you have better luck and this was helpful

The temp situation has been frustrating b/c it says it can be set at a certain temp but when trying to program it to stay put, it simply rises as your liquid inside is mixed, I use it for liposomal Vit c. I have found that the temp simply reflects the temp of the outside container, not your mixture so I have adapted and keep my thermometer handy and take temp of the liquid then add ice as it mixes to keep it below 104F. Its truly a great machine and for my purposes has worked fantastic other than the minor temp issue. Now that I realize what i need to do, its no problem. The lowest temp I have seen is in the 70's F and if I run it at 5 min intervals and let it cool, I can keep it well below 90F. Good luck. MS

The temp control is automatic and perfect in my opinion. My thermometer said it was 375-385, which is what I manually set my old fryer to. It wore out. I like the frydaddy better. It barely makes the olive oil smoke which is normal, but it does not burn the olive oil. Just unplug when done frying and the oil will last a long time. It heats up very quickly! Great fryer.

it was my first attempt too...unfortunately, it is my last with them... According to every website I have looked at for temperatures reguarding the boiling point of mash, it is around 173 to 178 degrees..this unit pulls a temp of 191 to 198 before the mash comes to a boil...it runs way hotter than what it should. I even replace the analog thermometer that came with it, with a digital thermometer...it made no difference... I wanted a still I could learn on..unfortunately, I chose the wrong still & company...may the buyer beware...as a side note...my wife has already told me we are getting a different setup from a different company...good luck...but beware!! it was my first attempt too...unfortunately, it is my last with them...

The description says the temp starts at 240F (120C) but the dial starts at 140. What the heck? And there are no indicators of what the temps are until you get to the hottest. I will be writing a review after some use, just received it in the mail.

Mine doesn't get very hot either. I started on M and didn't think it was very hot so I turned it to H and didn't notice any difference. Just checked the temperature on H is 150 degrees F.

Patrick I am not shure . I have it on my bench at work I know the high setting is about 900 degrees i dont think that is correct i havent checked it . But I can tell you one thing that is a heck of a good station for the money . Ive had a repair shop since 89 and thats the best for the money . I was using edsyn stations but they were too expensive to maintain. Tips and heating elements for this station are cheap. and they have a good life . I run my station at about 675 degrees 10 hours a day 6 days a week . a tip will easily last 2 or 3 months and Ive never replaced the heating element. One thing I would suggest is to throw away the sponge that comes with it . I use a piece of stainless steel wool glued in the tray with silicone . This cleans the tip nicely and you dont experince temprature change from wetting the tips. Which keeps your station temp steady and prolongs the tip life. Tips are small enough to do smd removal.

Sorry to hear that they screwed up your order. Lets hope everything will be ok. They are good A/C's. I had purchased 2 12,000 units for rest of the house since they are 110/120 and not 240. The units were originally Air Temp made by Chrysler. I was trying to locate Air Temp but it kept coming up SPT. I guess they merged companies.

I now like the machine but the settings/temps process is mysterious. In brief, be sure it is in the mode you want; like standard and not eco or fan. I turn it on and up to where it starts, then back it down. I set its reading to four or five degrees higher than I actually intend. This way it cycles on and off at night and keeps the (bed)room at the desired temperature. This advice may not help. In which case persist; just fool with the thing until you win. Or call LeLonghi and good luck with that.

I bought a remanufactured unit, which was less then the new unit. 349.00 new and 279.00 remfg. I don't know where you found the new unit for 249.00? I have to tell you that I am very pleased with the one I bought. Have not used my regular stove oven since. The convection feature is great. Pizza is the best. Pies are wonderful Cookies are even better. VERY PLEASED.
