Instant Read Meat Thermometer Just $9.99 on Amazon | Waterproof & Magnetic

I am not a chef, but want to know when my food is cooked to the right temperature. I had a couple of the digital “stick” meat thermometers, that both died, possibly from someone submerging them when washing them. They were slow to get to the actual temperature of the meat, and not all that accurate. This one is great, it reads instantly, it was so fast I didn’t believe it until I tested it against things of known temperature. It is accurate within spec. The thing is calibrated, and NIST is traceable for that calibration. I was very surprised, I worked in a regulated industry in the past and know what that NIST traceability means. It is not something that you will find for a cheap foreign-made thermometer. The thermometer turns on when you open the probe and turns off the instant you close it. This saves battery life, and with the probe stowed, there is no chance of “stabbing” someone with it or the kids getting hurt. And oh, it’s magnetic so you can stick it on the oven, or the fridge out of little one’s reach.

This is a well-designed and built device. It is obvious that the company takes pride in this product. It may cost a slight bit more than others, but it is worth every penny. This will probably last me a lifetime, no planned obsolescence here! Bravo to a company that actually produces a quality product in today’s market!
