Wireless 2-sensor fridge thermometer?

Does anybody have recommendations? Amazon mostly have one design that everybody is cloning shamelessly. Prices start from $17 and I am not sure whether $25 one would be any better. Huge 4x4 inch monitor box with 3 displays, 2 for fridge and freezer and 1 for ambient (don't need the latter, already have a perfectly functional indoor thermometer). Takes 7 (!) batteries: 2*2AA for sensors and 3AAA for main unit.

Not being picky, but - from my experience with wired kitchen thermometer these things do malfunction. When I put wired probe in the fridge, it would sometimes turn off or reset when fridge started (or stopped) the cycle, - electric noise/interference maybe. Or it would change readings to gibberish upon reset, and I had to turn it off and on - then it worked for a while until malfunctioned again.

Go to Ambient Weather site. Great selection of remote units. We have a unit with 5 remote sensors, freezer, fridge, outside, storage compartment and interior. Uses AAA batteries, ours is 7 years old, no issues.

I have tried a number of different wireless 2 channel (fridge body & freezer) thermometers, and after having most of them fail, often still giving the last reading on the display when the sensor died, I switched to a pair of Sensor Push devices. No display - reads on your phone. Provides instant / hour / day / week / month graphs of temperature & humidity. Expensive, but they work. I now have 4 sensors, 2 for the refrigerator, one for outside temperature & one I keep in my medicine storage box.
