Works great. The oven was not cooking correctly so with this we confirmed it was getting 50 degrees hotter than the setting and had a bigger temperature swing while cooking. Confirms we need a new oven! Read more
The item appears to function as designed, it definitely helped me notice a discrepancy in my oven temperature. My only issue is that the base is approximately 1 3/4 inches wide. And so is the space between my rack grates. Even the slightest rattle causes to the thermometer to fall over. Read more
Great little thermometer for the oven love you can hook it on the rack to get an accurate reading Read more
Been in the oven for years! Still working years later! Glass still clearly visible and markings still easy to read. Very happy with this purchase! Read more

Simple as it gets, easy to read, affordable, seems accurate. It shows my freezers coldness status as basic "working as designed" level of cold. I have 2 old Frigidaire chest freezers that are each 3.5 feet high and 2 X 3 foot lid size. With this thermometer in the middle back of the freezer (half way vertically from the top) "Freezer One" is at 0 degrees Fahrenheit and "Freezer Two" is at 2 degrees above zero. My understanding is that Zero degrees is the norm. You can get some home consumer freezers (usually chest type) down to -4 F and sometimes even -20 F in some brands. Consumer home units are not always clear on if they will go the extra mile colder. I have read that "Frost free" freezers "heat up" and refreeze something like 4 or 5 times a day. I learned this from reading up on refrigeration online - I am not a professional, just a concerned consumer who has been trying to educate himself. YMMV. OPTIONAL DIGRESSION / THIS CAN BE BORING - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! A freezer that gets to -4 or lower is desirable in reducing the survivability of hookworms / roundworms / tapeworms in various fish (examples: cod, Salmon, halibut). I have read safety suggestions to leave the fish at -4 or below for a full week. That and heating the fish meat to 140 degrees F (for a piece less than 6 inches in thickness) kills parasites or... makes them so disabled / dopey that they wont survive your stomach acid. I've never had an infection but after reading about it, I want to make sure any parasite critters in my foods are dead. If you can be * sure * your fish was flash deep frozen then most likely you don't need to worry about this aside from cooking the fish sufficiently. I have retained my current freezers due to interia (i.e. dreading the upheaval of replacing them, the whole swap out), it will probably be a spring cleaning "project". I am considering getting a "True" brand freezer which, from what I can tell, is a semi-pro grade (i.e. not laboratory grade but more solidily engineered than consumer) freezer that can get down to at least -4 F and possibly further. Back to the Rubbermaid thermometer: For what I paid, I am pleased with it. it is LOW hassle and durable. I also recently purchased a digital Freezer thermometer from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HO4VZRQ/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_8. I'm sure the digital will be more hassle / loseable / breakable. It may be more accurate. I will report back on how closely the two thermometer types compare down the road. Read more
Went from 5 stars to 3 stars I ordered this 2 June and received it 4 June and it went straight into the freezer. 14 July 2022, I had to defrost the freezer and took everything out including the Rubbermaid and Copper thermometers. The Cooper is fine. The Rubbermaid has 3 water bubbles inside it and it has condensation inside which fogs up the ability to read it. I looked it over and it looks sealed all the way around but obviously it is not. You can still read the Rubbermaid thermometer but it should not be allowing water/condensation inside of it. It still works well because it records the same temp as the Cooper. In the morning, I will take my Rubbermaid thermometer out to the deck and let the sun hopefully dry the inside of this Rubbermaid thermometer out if by morning there is still 3 water bubbles in it and condensation. It is too late to send this back or I would. I hope the water inside issue does not warp the numbers or anything else inside the thermometer over time. BUY THE COOPER thermometer. OLD REVIEW BELOW I purchased a new small manual frost freezer "Danby" because frost free freezers don't last as long today. Wanting to keep it simple with less things to break - manual the way to go. However, most appliances (refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, etc) last only 7 years on average now because all owned by China, built in China or use Chinese parts and smaller appliances like microwaves and little things like thermometers last even less long. I read hundreds of reviews by people who lost thousands of dollars in frozen meat/food when their "new" freezer died or did not freeze food properly. I wanted a thermometer that worked but I didn't want to mess around buying batteries for it every few months. I looked for a restaurant thermometer and these had to be NSF certified which eliminated most of the Amazon thermometers except the 2 below. I purchased both of them. They arrived at same time and they went into the freezer at same time. They both registered the same reading and have been working for well over 2 months now. I have much older manual frost free freezer I am going to buy 2 more and put in there. Fingers crossed, the freezers will continue working properly for years to come but knowing a proper thermometer reading is just as important to give me heads up.
