Taylor Candy and Deep Fry Analog Paddle Stainless Steel Thermometer with Adjustable Pot Clip

I've had two glass candy thermometers crack and break (kitchen help, careless). I swore I'd never purchase another one. Then I found this one. Easier to use MUCH sturdier. Easy to clean and also store. I have it hanging from a kitchen rack. Pretty sure this one will last forever.

This thermometer is great for making candy and deep frying. It's very easy to read. It just sits on the side of the pot so it can stay in it while the pot is getting hot. It also markers on it to show you where temp should be depending on what you are cooking.

this the first time ever bought this item and it works really great but the only problem is the piece that holds up it likes to slide down constantly but besides from that it's amazing

This thermometer is a must. I use it for Candy making, chicken frying, Rosette cookies, and so much more. Sometimes you just need to know how hard the oil and this one is perfect!

I tried to place a yes for I would recommend this item to others. As far as I feel about the product I am very happy with it. I have purchased many of these in different sizes shape and styles but I always come back to these. Don't waste your time buying one of those totally glass thermometers. I did and I was making hard candies. I was waiting for the hard ball stage and right after I passed the soft ball stage when the thermometer cracked then shattered all in the candy. And no it was not touching the bottom. I know better than that. I changed nothing I was standing there with my hand on the handle of the pot ready to start pouring the candy quickly.

Was in a pinch and needed a candy thermometer quick. I usually buy the cheap ones as I bloe them out quickly making candy. Bought this one as it was the only one available at the time. It's great! Made over 50 pounds of candy and it's still accurate. Hooks on the side of the pan better than any I have used in the past. Metal frame keeps the glass ball from accidentally hitting hot surface of pan. It's great!

Temperature aspect was good. But the clip on the back used for attaching it to the pan didn't stay on well. We were able to make it work, but I would probably pick a different one next time.

I purchased this product on yesterday and when I received it, the package had been taped back together, but you could tell by the size it had been opened. I understand the shoppers are busy and have a lot of people that they are shopping for at one time, but they need to really pay attention to things like this. I did not purchase a used item. I purchased a brand new item and would have liked to have received it.

This thermometer broke for no obvious reason the first time it was used, ruining our entire batch of candy. Unfortunately, we did not realize it had broken until my boyfriend and child had already sampled the candy.

This thermometer is very hard to read. I bought it to replace an old thermometer for making yogurt. The mercury material is blue and is impossible to read - even with the stove light on. Also, the clip to hold it on the pan is not tight, so it just slides down.
