9877FDA Compact Waterproof Digital Food Thermometer, 2.81 Inch Stem Length with FDA-Recommended 1.5mm Probe, NSF Certified, Blue

Pros: - compact & easy to use - very accurate out of the box - can be easily recalibrated (hold SET then push HOLD and MAX at the same time. Submerge in ice water for 30 seconds, press MAX again to set it to 32F/0C, then hold SET. Done!) - waterproof (haven't tested in dishwasher yet) - seems durable, at least for my use - probe cover can be used as handle extension - simple, industrial look - no bright orange flames or meat grilling tables cluttering the surface. The blue looks nice, the buttons are functional with a sturdy feel Cons: - takes about 3-5 seconds for a reading, but this seems to be the norm with these types of thermometers. It updates fast once it gets to temperature. - display lacks backlight. Not an issue for me since this will extend battery life, but the thermometer will be hard to read in dark places. - buttons might feel a bit stiff to some people. Personally I think they just feel sturdy rather than stiff. Keep in mind they're supposed to be waterproof, so there's no way to make them soft and tactile. I use this thermometer for brewing tea and coffee. It's pretty much perfect for this purpose. The probe is short enough to fit most mugs and gongfu style teaware, without creating an imbalance and tipping things over. I'm sure it works great for poking meat too.

Perfect size digital thermometer. Fits in my knife roll and apron pocket. Easy to have at hand.

Works great in the kitchen, very accurate

This thermometer works very well for my work in a production kitchen. It has served me well for the time that I've had it and appears to be reliable and accurate. I only have trouble with the power button. It is a bit stiff and takes some effort turning it on and off.

I love this accurate and easy to use thermometer! I work in a small commercial kitchen and this is the thermometer we use most often. I love it so much I had to order one for myself to use at home.❤️

I bought this to use to check water temps while fly fishing and have ended up using it for cooking and other home projects as well. It's very easy to read and use, the battery is still going, and it's quite durable. I carry it in my fishing vest and it's exceeded all my expectations.

Easy to use for a school kitchen for recording temperatures of hot and cold items including frozen receiving temperatures. I bought this for my personal use since all we had at the school was old non-digital thermometers. My only complaint is that it's hard to turn off, I just it auto turn off after 5 minutes.

Worked until it was washed. Submerged briefly in water, set to dry and then didn't work. Water was in display window. Removed battery backing and battery to dry out. Put battery back in and could no longer turn off. Used, kept from submerging when washing, now the display shows "8" all across reading and no longer works.

HVAC tech here. I kept losing my digital thermometer and got tired of spending $50+ for the bigger name brands. This works great; display is a little small, and is not magnetic, but hey, it works.
