Rubbermaid Commercial FGTHP220DS Stainless Steel Dishwasher Safe Pocket Thermometer 5 Stem Length 0 to 220 Degrees F Temperature

It can be adjusted which I did. All metal so no glass to break. The top is quite small and could be difficult to read.

I had bought this thermometer, my last order indicated in April of 2012. I am now buying this again because it finally "broke" when it started reading the wrong temperature. Probably my fault the poor thing has been dropped so many times, I really honestly don't know how it lasted this long. So basically it's a nokia brick. It's been dropped, dishwashed so many times, stepped on, lost, found, buried. And it kept going. I hadn't the heart to throw it away but when it read my hot water as being only 120F when I knew it was at least 200F I knew it was time to say goodbye. Pros: Could probably survive a nuclear explosion Accurate and super quick temp Saw me through many a meals All around good thermometer, no frills, no batteries--just a regular ol' thermometer--that may outlive you Cons: The one that I had originally had an easy cheat sheet on its cap, this one doesn't. That's just a gripe, hopefully this one will live up to it's predecessor. Overall: Will buy again when needed.

Tengo menos de un año que lo compre y ya no me funciona , es de buena marca y fácil de usar pero ya no me funciono .

Bought this to take temperature of the ground, for mushroom hunting, and garden planting works great.

I like this thermometer so much better than the digital thermometers on the market these days. I find it much easier to use. We've had this thermometer at home for years, and we use it all the time. Because I rely on it so much, I had to order a second thermometer to use at our lake cabin. ACCURACY The thermometer is very accurate. I've tested it against two digital thermometers we have (and no longer use), and it reads the same as the digital thermometers. FUNCTION The digital thermometers we have always seem to need a new battery - and of course, I don't always have the right kind of battery on hand. It's frustrating when this happens and you need to know the temperature of something you're cooking. I finally gave up on the digital thermometers and will just stick to this one - no batteries required. I also like the size of this thermometer, compared to the digital ones we have (had). It's easier to store in a drawer. I am very happy with the quality, accuracy, and durability of this thermometer. I definitely recommend it!
