  • Perfect for hot cooking!
Style: Tube
I make gourmet lollipops as a side business and I could never go to a digital, they are always wrong. I love the old school way! It’s easy to read and the accuracy of your baking is always right!

  • Very nice once you bend the holding clamp!
Style: Short Probe
This is a very nice cooking thermometer, but the holding clamp is not angled correctly for a Lodge® cast iron skillet with high sides. As it comes from the factory, the clamp works, but it doesn't hold the thermometer tightly, and the angle is wrong for my preferences. I studied the clamp and thermometer for a while and after quite a bit of metal bending and experimenting, I found the correct way to bend the holding clamp so the thermometer is vertical and, perhaps most importantly, is very steady so it doesn't go sideways or shift when I am frying chicken or fish. Overall, including experimenting time to get the angles correct, it took about 30 minutes to get the holding clamp the way I like it. I think this is the best that can be done with this holding clamp, and I suppose there is a way to design and build a holding clamp or metal piece that will be all the more rigid, but that might be too much work. The practical aspect is that the holding clamp is working nicely now to keep the thermometer vertical and stable so using it with hot peanut oil at 350-degrees Fahrenheit is safe and does not require constant fidgeting with the thermometer. I like this thermometer, and it probably will last longer than the "candy thermometers" with glass tubes and mercury or red alcohol, which soon stop working due to bubbles so that instead of being a steady column that stops at the current temperature, it's a bunch of bubbles and there is no way to read it or to return it to factory condition. For reference, I am a Vine Voice but I paid for this thermometer myself and nothing was free. ... show more

  • Kudo’s for quick customer support …
Style: Tube
First time I used it, clipped it to side of pan & turned on burner - saw temp start to rise and then heard a 'crack!' - temp dropped and stayed at lowest reading. No longer registers any change in temp. Had to guess when temp was right. I have contacted Escali through their website (since that's the only option for a refund or replacement), and I'll update this review when I hear from them. Update1- Escali promptly promised to send a replacement. Will update when I’ve received/used it. Update2 - replacement arrived quickly and this one appears to work well. Much appreciated. ... show more

  • EXCELLENT THERMO PROBE! YOU CAN EVEN CALIBRATE IT--AND DO IT ASAP!
Style: Short Probe
I tested this temperature probe as soon as I got it. It said the water I was testing was boiling at 250°F, so I twisted the nut under the dial with a pair of pliers until the dial read 212°, since I'm not much above sea level. Simple, although if you live far above sea level, you should adjust your probe accordingly. One reason I chose this particular temperature probe was for the specific reason that it's adjustable. Every electronic temperature probe I've ever had--and I've bought several--eventually turns grossly inaccurate. There's no way to correct them, and I'm tired of buying one after another. I can test this probe whenever I want and adjust it so that's it's as good as new, so I recommend this manual probe over any electronic one. Also, there's no battery to worry about. Another reason I chose this thermometer is that it's "tuned" for the specific temperatures for the stages of candy. The temperature indications on the dial are spaced farther apart for candy stages than on the other parts of the scale so the thermometer is more accurate and easier to read in that area, plus the candy stages are printed on the dial itself to avoid any confusion. Overall, this is an excellent candy and/or multi-purpose thermometer. ... show more

  • Broken, does not work -even replacement doesn't work. Cheaply made and crappy.
Style: Digital
Worthless. Wish I could give 0 stars. First one didn't work so they sent me a second that also did not work with the same issue. Wont turn on and just clicks and a red light flashes over and over and over. Tried removing battery and replacing but no luck. Stay away from the digital thermometers cause they just don't work. ... show more

  • Works great if you bother to read directions and calibrate
Style: Short Probe
I ordered this item a while back and LOVED it. Have just re-ordered today because I messed mine up by slamming my overcrowded kitchen gadget drawer closed and bending it! MY error. I bent the probe into a curved shape and bent it at the point where the probe connects to the thermometer. I just have to shake my head and roll my eyes at some of the reviews. Most of the negative reviews appear to be about the accuracy. Well, all you have to do is calibrate it. Simple process of boiling some water and taking a little bit of time and a set of pliers, a hemostat or a small wrench and turning the nut on the back until the needle points to 212 degrees. DUH. You most likely would need to do this with any kitchen thermometer. And it should be done periodically anyway. Don't be misled by stupid people!! This is an inexpensive and accurate thermometer IF you calibrate. The reason for my 4 stars on the easy to read and easy to use categories: The stem of the thermometer will turn within the clip, but sometimes it's a bit difficult to get the face of the dial turned in a direction that it's super easy to see. Very hard to describe, sorry. And the clip is set at a width which is difficult to make any SMALLER. It will expand to clip nicely to a thicker sided pot, but if you happen to try to use a thinner sided pot, there's no way to decrease the width of the clip. Again, kind of difficult to describe. I use cast iron cookware for my infrequent frying. The width of the clip tends to fit fairly snugly to most of my cast iron cookware, so no real big deal there for me, but it may present an issue to some who may be using a thinner sided vessel for frying. Overall, this is a great, inexpensive thermometer if you take the necessary step of calibrating. ... show more
