Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - excellent
My old analog thermeter wouldn't read high enough temperatures. This one goes plenty high for anything I need. Easy to calibrate, operate, and clean. Reaches actual temperature in seconds and has a sharp point. I like it and it's way cheaper than than that real expensive one.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - digital cooking gauge
hello, i watch the americas test kitchen on public television. i always wanted a digital thermometor and the one they always recomended was a therma pen, which goes for about $90.00. sorry i couldnt afford one. so recently they tested a bunch of more affordable ones. this is the model that won the test for accuracy and readability. so i was happy to purchase this one,which is very affordable. thanks



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Competent small digital thermometer
This item forms part of a wide ranging collection of cooking thermometers. Certainly not 'instant read', but the small probe seems to work more quickly than other's I've used. Display is easy to read. Re-calibration feature is a neat 'plus'. This is not the right tool for monitoring cooking oil or any application where it will be in close contiunous proximity to heat (there are other cool tools for that).



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Easy and Accurate
This is a good little thermometer. I tested its accuracy in ice-water and boiling water. It registers a temperature in 5 - 10 seconds and is easy to read. The price is right, too.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Messed up after one year
The calibriation on mine went haywire. I tried recalibrating in an ice bath per the instructions with no luck. I then replaced the battery and tried again and it is still messed up. Its sitting in an ice bath right now but says the temp is 52 deg F.

BTW, the calibration function doesn't seem to do anything unless you do it with ambient temps between 23-41 deg F, meaning you need to stick the whole thing in the freezer to try to recalibrate it.

When it worked it worked ... Read More
