Fridge/Freezer Thermometer with Large Dial.
By Robert C. Walker
This thermometer is exactly what I Needed. My fridge seemed to be all over the place and we had a few gallons of milk go bad before the use by date. With the help of the Taylor thermometer we have been able to, not only get better control of the overall temperature, but find some spots in the fridge storage with very different temperatures.I would not like to be without it.

Works like it should
By Michael E. Kelley
I bought a pair of these thermometers for a refrigerator and freezer as backup to a digital wireless thermometer. The analog and digital thermometers track indicated temperature quite closely. I like the large size which makes them easy to read. Considering the price, I'm very pleased with these Taylor thermometers.

Not Accurate
By Fly Fish - Wisconsin
I purchased this thermometer to replace an inaccurate one. I now have two inaccuated ones.

I purchased the Taylor commercial digital "food" thermometer at the same time. I calibrated the "food" thermometer (as per the instructions) in a ice bath. The Taylor "food" thermometer was accurate.

I then compared the calibrated food thermometer to this freezer-refrigerator thermometer, at refrigeration temperatures (38 degrees). This freezer-refrigerator thermometer reads 8 degrees low. This is a potential safety hazard since a refrigerator at 50 degrees would read at a safe level of 42 degrees.

I expected better accuracy, especially since this product bears the NSF logo. There is no calibration adjustment knob/screw on this model.

I plan to contact the manufacturer for a replacement.
