YMMIND Meat Food Candy Thermometer, Probe Instant Read Thermometer, Digital Cooking Kitchen BBQ Grill Thermometer With Long Probe for Liquids Pork Milk Yogurt Deep Fry Roast Baking Temperature

Full disclosure this item was received free from the Walmart recognized reviewer program. These are awesome and so essential for your kitchen. I really needed one for a long time and I am amazed that I got three of them so I'm looking forward to using them this Labor Day and testing my meat temperature. Great item much needed thanks

Nothing but good things to say about this item. Its super easy to use and it is very well made. Cleaning it is a breeze and so far what i have tested it seems to be pretty accurate. Happy with purchase and with the price i feel its a good value and will recommend.

I ordered this for candy making, since it has a wide temp range. After testing in a cup of tea, I found that unfortunately it is very slow to come to full temperature read. (Maybe 10 seconds?) Not ideal for candy making, as 10 seconds too long on heat could raise the candy stage. This thermometer might serve other purposes better, but I think I'll go back to an old-fashioned dial-style.

This arrived with a dead battery so had to replace that first. Probably due to the delay in shipping. A lot of items come with a really cheap battery to power them. I usually upgrade once I get the item because the cheap battery lasts a very short time. Anyhow, once replaced, it worked great. The low rating is because of the dead battery and the super cheap plastic used for the housing for the thermometer. It has a very wide range, making it suitable for a number of uses. I may get a second one for my darkroom because the accuracy is good enough for keeping color developer at the right temperature. Yes, I still do shoot some film! We're a dying breed though ... The range goes from -58F to 572 (-50C to 300C). Accuracy is .1 C/F. Color developer requires an accuracy of .25F by the way. This can be used to measure meat, cooking liquids, candy, etc. in the kitchen but I'd also say it would do a good job of measuring soil temperature or the water temperature in an aquarium. With the aquarium, be SURE not to immerse the part with the display in it. Definitely does not look waterpoof, but the bottom metal part can go in the water. I'd say this is a pretty good thermometer. My only complaint is the cheap plastic housing and getting it with a dead battery.

This is a wonderful thermometer! it is quick and I LOVE the hold feature so you get an accurate read when you remove it to see the temp. This is going to make it so much more accurate when making the honey lemon lozenges. I have been dropping a drip into some cold water and then seeing if it balls and if so, does the ball get hard and snap (Hard crack -300-310 F) so the lozenges melt in your mouth and don't get all gummy and sticky like the old Sugar Daddy candy on a stick. it's also going to be great to make sure the oil is hot enough to make good fried green tomatoes (this the season they're gonna be freezin') I've wanted one of these for a while but never found one like this...it is long enough to keep hands away from REALLY hot stuff but the tip is small enough you don't need 5 inches of hot liquid (syrup or grease) for it to give a good read and, as I mentioned before, that hold button lets you know for sure...Oh and good to check the internals on meats and even baking stuff! It looks like it will also be easy to replace the battery when needed so it should last a good long time. It has a nice plastic/rubber tip to keep the sensor end safe.It is nice and pointy for piercing meats and checking meatloaf. The card and clear plastic packaging it came in slides away, and back on, nicely for an even better and safer storage. VERY glad I got this. I didn't expect something this nice for such a small price!

I'm very surprised on the performance of this digital thermometer. I've used it only on meat's so far. I used it on a pot roast which was very large and thick. Spare ribs (short) which were meaty and a brisket. I doubled checked the accuracy of the temperature against my husband's outdoor one he uses to check brisket's, pork butt's, steak's ECT. It measured up very well. Only off by one degree. That may not mean much to some folks, but considering hubby spent close to $75.00 on sale for his thermometer and his food is always juicy and good. I wanted a digital thermometer for candy making this holiday season. Last year was a bust. Promise's were made and I need to delivery. My hubby said I might think about getting my own, his was on vacation 😂 I'm expecting it to perform well, but we'll see. Four stars instead of five for that reason. Good value, performance good and easy to use. Received delivery as promised and packaged well.

We have manual thermometers and so I thought we should upgrade. This one fit the bill and the pocketbook. Used it on chicken the first night it came in and happy to say it seems to work great. If I need to buy another one in the future I would buy this again.

YMMIND Digital Water proof Thermometer with a long probe is good for measuring the temperature of Liquid, Candle, Food, Meat and Milk. The °C/°F button allows either Celsius/Fahrenheit option. ON/OFF button provides automatic power-off function after 10 minutes of idling time. The instant reading thermometer with a high precision sensor can measure accurate temperature within 4-6 seconds. As you can see in the picture, two probes are well synchronized with the temperature 83.8 F under the same temperature environment.

I started with my chicken, and was okay if it took a few seconds longer- but a full minute? If you want a cheap or backup thermometer, this might be your thing. my chicken was cooked before I could try to get a decent reading. I wasn't sure if that was user error that I never got a reading for the chicken that was close to 165. So I went on a quest to see if it was even accurate. I put it in straight ice water. 40-60 second every time. Same with boiling water. Those were able to be accurate, but definitely not instant.

I love this easy to use multi purpose thermometer. It is a simple easy to use, easy to handle gadget. I do not have to buy a separate candy thermometer. The readout is plain simple numbers, easy to understand.
