Living Well Kitchens March 24, 2008
I have had dozens of thermometers, this one out performs them all. Durable, easy to store, clean and use. One button push and it is ready to read accurately within a few seconds. No calibration like the dial analog ones!

simple and accurate March 3, 2008
This does exactly what it is supposed to do and I found nothing I did not like..The battery life also seems to be very long lived.

Excellent Product March 2, 2008
I could not be happier with this product. It is waterproof, easy to wash, accurate, and convenient. No more guessing if your steak is ready. The accuracy guarantees a perfect piece of meat.

Works for me!!! February 27, 2008
I purchased this item out of necessity -- my prior digital thermometer had 'lost its mind' (indicated 175 degrees when at room temperature, even with a fresh battery!).
The new one is great. I especially appreciate the auto-shutoff feature as I repeatedly forgot to shut the prior one off, thus shortening its battery life. I agree with other reviewers in that it seems a bit slower than others I've used to 'finalize' on the temperature, but then maybe it's just being anal about accuracy - not a bad thing :). Despite the fact that it is claimed waterproof by the manufacturer, I won't submerge it in dishwater or put it in the dishwasher - but that's just me. The construction of the item does look to be more commercial-grade/rugged than others I've seen or used. And it's nice to know that I can ensure accuracy by calibrating/recalibrating now and then (or if the reading looks a bit suspicious). Overall I am very satisfied with the item and would recommend it..

Not Accurate & Cannot Calibrate February 23, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

First of all, it arrived with a dead battery. I replaced the battery and it seems to work. I tested the temperature in crushed ice water and it says the temperature is 40.9 degrees F, about 9 degrees F too high (or 5 degrees C too high). I tried to use the calibration screw on the front and it does absolutely nothing to offset the temperature reading. I haven't tried in boiling water yet, but I have already lost confidence in the readings. My microwave oven has a temperature monitoring capability and when I tested the water set at 70 degrees C from the microwave oven, the Taylor unit says 90 degrees C - which I know is incorrect. The Taylor model is cheap, and mine could be a defect - or they could all be hit or miss. Should I risk buying another one? I just don't know.
