Taylor Stainless Steel Digital Foldable Probe Meat Thermometer with Blue Backlight Display

i probably give more 5 stars reviews than most but that is is because I now study what I am going to buy and read other people's reviews before I buy to make sure In am buying the right thing. I did not always do things that way. This is my 3rd meat thermometer and is the one I should have bought in the first place. One of the others malfunctioned and I broke the other one. This one one is sturdy and much easier to read than the others, It has a newer design, works quickly and is compact for easy storage. One tip I can pass on is to to store your meat thermometer in a convenient visible place near your stove instead of losing it in a drawer packed with other utensils

I ordered a stainless thermometer because I'm old school, but they didn't have one so this was the alternative. At first I was doubtful that I'd like it, but it actually works really well. I only wish the back light stayed on longer. It's great with checking meat temps while cooking, the digits on the screen are easy to read, it's much more compact that the old stainless ones so it fits right into my utensil drawer with no snagging or issues, and I am sure it will be a great asset in the summer when we grill

Easy to use %26 convenient. I want to try making a brisket and this is a necessity. Well made. As soon as you pull the plastic strip that covers the battery, it starts reading the room temp. Off button on back. Plus button to turn on light to view temp in dark areas or night time. I like it!

i like it and it's much easier to use and better than a round clock type thermometer, but the back light doesn't stay lit up long enough, and when i hit it again to light it back up, it shuts off, so i'm constantly turning it on and off, but other than that, it's nice and much better and accurate than what i had.

I thought that I would like it because of it's folding mechanism. Unfortunately though in my experience, the probe ended up snapping off after using the thermometer for a month or two. And so I would think that it's probably more vulnerable with repeated use, compared to a static probe.

This is a nice looking instrument, but functionally it is a bust. I expected much more from Taylor. 1) It is incredibly slow to measure temps. It takes 15 to 30 seconds to stabilize and read the temperature. This is far too slow for a digital thermometer by standards set by today's market. There are many options that read in a couple of seconds and faster. 2) The low temperature reading against ice in a glass of iced water was 34 degrees F. It should have much close to 32 degrees. I expected 32 and maybe a fraction. 3) The high temperature reading in rapidly boiling water was low: 209.7 to 210.0 (it never stabilized). This should have been 212 degrees F. The inaccuracies could be tolerated if the speed were better. But as it is, it is pretty worthless and will be relegated to the junk drawer.

absolute trash. I had it for exactly 3 months and it broke. I was just finishing measuring the temperature of some chicken breast and went to close the gauge and the black plastic housing around the thermometer just fell apart. it's completely useless now. returning it.

I ordered two of these thermometers. One broke within just a few uses, which I returned. Two months later (beyond the return time allotment), the other one has broken. They literally fell apart when using. I had one prior to purchasing these ( I bought these as a gift and as a backup), which is still working fine, but the two recent purchases are cheaply made a not at all durable. I'm very disappointed and will look for another brand.

This item gets used about once per week and I've now had it for about one year. Today I went to pick it up, and the probe literally just fell off! Didn't try to open it, didn't do anything. Just picked it up and the plastic fell apart! Won't ever purchase another Taylor product. I still am in disbelief!!!

This whole order from the arroyo grande store was unprofessional and the driver was the only nice part the driver was great but your store staff and other disrespectful and have no customer service mabey they need a program for the employee to learn how to treat a customer right and with respect instead of rolling there eyes when they made a mistake first t then with refund made a mistake to so finally had to call the number I.
