 probably not for convection roasting March 3, 2010

The whole apparatus melted within 10 minutes. It perhaps was the way I used it, as I put it into 450 degree convection oven on 'roast'. But my understanding was that it was rated for up to 450 degrees, no exceptions. Went to the Publix and got an old timey clock hands type thermometer, which works fine for our needs.
 Works great, good value February 26, 2010

This is my first thermometer. Works great! My steaks and lamb chops taste so much better. Now I can cook my steaks with peace of mind knowing that they are sufficiently well cooked. While thermometer seems water resistant, I take care not to get the LCD part of it wet. Take care of it and it will last a long time. Do not leave it in the oven!
Fantastic product, but don't trust the chart on the probe cover February 17, 2010
Christopher A. Craig (Marietta, GA United States)
Reads in about 5 seconds
very shallow read (good for reading small things) maybe 1/2"
nice 5" probe
auto-off after 10 minutes (I can't tell you how many times I've pulled my old Taylor out of the drawer and found it turned on)
easy to change batteries
can be recalibrated
waterproof
can hold temp or review max
seems extremely accurate (I've tested the boiling point on some known things and it seems withing .5 degrees or so.)
All in all I'd say it's a perfect thermometer. You could get a Taylor 9840 at Walmart for half this price, but you would be sitting for 20-30 seconds waiting on it to read (and it's not waterproof, doesn't turn off, and you have to take it apart to change the battery). A Thermapen would be better (I trust, I haven't ever actually used one), but you're going to pay $90 for it.
My only complaint is that it has a chart on the probe cover of cooking temperatures of various things, which would be fantastic except that it's taken from USDA guidelines, which disagree with reality. I've never met anyone who considers a 160 degree F steak to be "medium"...
a must have February 15, 2010

A very needed tool in every kitchen. Great for making sure the chicken is done.
Works great! February 15, 2010
Justin Lussier (PA USA)
This thermometer works fast (instant read), seems very accurate, and stores easily. The small case (plastic sleeve) lists the appropriate final cooking temperatures for various meats, which comes in very handy. Nice large digital display makes it very easy to see the digits. Auto-turn off feature after 10 minutes saves on batteries because I always forget to turn it off. Just buy it, you won't be disappointed!
