Don't buy...
I used it one time and then it stopped reading temps at all. I tried to "recalibrate" using ice water - nothing... 10/10 would not recommend...

Waste of money
Should have read reviews before purchasing. This was pretty much a waste of money and disappointing. The temperature gauge goes up so slowly, and doesn’t go much past 100 ever.

when it boils over.....
it boiled over at 160 but my turkey needed to be 165 min. i guess I should not have tried the discounted item. at least i could tell when it should be at 165 fin the time it took to 160 buy it could've been a hazard. luckily other sources say poultry is good at 145. it would have been bad to survey the night vomited and having diarrhea bc of a thermometer or a little better over cooking the turkey to be safe!

Bait and switch pricing
Website advertises $5.59 in stock at a store near me, rings up at almost $9.00 and they won't match their own pricing. Bait and switch

Doesn't Work
It’s a thermometer that doesn’t actually work, so there’s nothing else to judge about it. One star.

No good
Was not accurate when check temp of burgers. Though I was only using about the bottom 1/2” it was reading 120 degrees and my old thermometer ready at 160. Do not recommend

It works if its used properly
I mean it works if you use it properly. It has to be 3/4 into the piece of meat for it to get a good read.

Great meat thermometer
I was pleasantly surprised to find how easy this thermometer was to read. The lens is a magnifier. It's also fast to register the temp of meat.

Don't waste your money
Inaccurate. Works very slow and won't reach above 100°. Ruined my steaks.

NOT an instant read, NOT accurate
This thermometer takes FOREVER to read the temperature of the food item you're using it for. It slowly ticks up while your food is out of the oven getting cold. It is NOT accurate. I used my old thermometer side by side with this one and the old one showed the temperature at 160 degrees and this one stayed at 140 degrees. If I had relied on the Taylor brand thermometer, my food would have been dry and overcooked. It was a waste of money and headed for the landfill.

Waste of time. Low quality
Provided hole in the red plastic holder is too small. Can’t use it. Zero stars!
