Taylor Programmable with Timer Instant Read Wired Probe Digital, Meat, Food, Grill BBQ Cooking Kitchen Thermometer with Timer, Gray

I have been very happy with this thermometer. It has a nice long cord with a coating of silicone. The temperature readings have been very accurate. Boiling water reads 212 F, ice water near 32 F. Readings for cooked foods seem accurate, too. It can read up to about 400 F, so it works great for checking the oil temperature when deep frying. I use it mainly for deep frying and for using in the oven. There is a switch on the back to change between Celsius and Fahrenheit. It also comes with a timer, which I don't use very often, but it works fine. I do use the temperature alert quite a bit. This allows you to set an alarm that goes off when a specified temperature is reached. The alarm is very loud, so you can hear it all through the house. I am now on my third one of these, and I have some words of warning: - Even though there is a magnet on the back, the only thing you should use it for is to stick it to your refrigerator. I was using it with my Weber grill, put the lid on the grill, and stuck the thermometer on the lid. Yes, that was foolish. The casing is plastic and plastic melts under high heat. Imagine that! That is how I ruined the first one. - The second one lasted me 7+ years. I use it a lot for deep frying, both for checking the temperature of the oil and for testing the heat of the food. It works perfectly for this, However, I tend to leave the unit too close to the oil and it gets spattered with oil quite a bit. It finally got to the point where the buttons were too gummed up with oil and didn't work very well. Because it comes with a long cord, just make sure you stretch it out to keep the unit away from the hot oil. I use mine several times a week, so as long as you take care of it, it should last you many years.

Update - Impending Probe death! I've probably used this thermometer about fifty times in the last couple of years and the inevitable is about to occur - Probe Death. I've started getting strange readings when the probe is plugged in. It returns to normal in a few seconds, but gives me false readings that tell me the meal is done when it can't possibly be. The probe with this thermometer is pretty sturdy - a long rubberized cord which is seemingly impervious to heat. But the connection near the metal portion that is inserted into food is a delicate little flower and, from reading many BBQ forum postings, is the primary cause of failure. If you yank that probe out of a roast, or tweak the connection in any rough and tumble way, start counting the days until you have to replace the probe. Thankfully, Taylor makes a replacement probe available through Amazon - it's about $10, but well worth it. If you want an even better deal, Taylor sells them directly out of their Las Cruces NM location. Search online or drop me a comment here and you'll find the information quite easily. Now, back to the original review I wrote: I purchased this to replace a cheap remote monitor thermometer that lasted far longer than I expected. I read a lot of Amazon reviews and noted that none of these probe thermometers seem to survive very long.... the probes seem to be the primary fault line. But I needed a probe unit so that I could smoke briskets and chicken. I bought this unit based on its decent ratings and price. After three years of use, I have not been disappointed. First suggestion: treat it gently. I have used it in some high heat applications, but don't leave the probe with its delicate wire sitting in 500 degree temperatures very long - just enough to get a good reading. In lower heat settings, like my smoker, I leave it connected and have never had a problem. Second suggestion: When done cooking, wash the probe gently, then put it and the unit in a tough plastic bag that protects it from other kitchen gadgets in the kitchen. This is a nice kitchen appliance - treat it nice and it will last you a while! The unit has consistently provided reliable temperature readings and has a convenient beeper when a pre-set temperature is reached. My only complaint - minor - is that when you first turn the unit on, it starts beeping until you hit a stop button. If this one dies, I may be tempted to try one of the Oregon Scientific units, but will probably end up purchasing another Taylor. It has served me well.

THis is the 3rd time I have purchased this thermometer, the last time was over 4 years ago. It works great ad is easy to use. My usual use for this is for foods in the oven to know when it reaches the proper temperature for doneness level. I especially like the alar, loud enough to hear from another room. The reason I'm purchasing again is that I think I messed up the spear tip when I plunged it into >400° F oil suddenly from room temp, I don't think it liked that. Recommended.

I have owned several types of oven thermometers and prefer the Taylor Digital Cooking Thermometer. They work well for me, giving me accurate readings and easy to use. My chicken breasts turn out perfect every time because I don't have to overcook them. One warning, they don't last forever and sometimes are hard to find in the store (hence this review on Amazon). I bought two this time because the last couple gave out when I was in the middle of cooking a meal.

現在、無数に売られている料理用の温度計は、今回購入した商品が1台あればすべて無用になると思います。 私は、アメリカで生活していた時に使っていたものを日本に持ち帰りましたが、故障したので、今回ネットで 購入しました。とにかく、便利で最高です。何一つ欠点はありません。

Mi spiace, ma quello che è arrivato a me non funzionava e quindi l'ho restituito. Peccato, perché l'oggetto mi interessava per le sue caratteristiche e, soprattutto, il suo prezzo decisamente concorrenziale. Inoltre, la spedizione è stata rapidissima (2 giorni dopo l'ordine), considerando che arrivava dall'Inghilterra

Muy buen termómetro, lo uso para hacer macarrones

Bom produto.
