Review on 🌡️ Optimized Fridge and Freezer Thermometer by Erin Brown

Update: 01/25/2021 I have had 4-5 fridge thermometers for almost 3 years now; this polder, Taylor, DayMark and two ads for Rubbermaid. i learned something The left and right sides of the refrigerator affect the temperature, as well as the vertical measurement from top to bottom, as well as the packing density - the density of items in the refrigerator, the degree of free space. I thought the temperature in the fridge was the same, but it's not, and it makes sense. All refrigerators work in the same way - cold air is generated in the freezer compartment and directed into the refrigerator compartment by opening the door in a controlled manner. Incoming cold air from the freezer (side by side in my fridge, with the freezer on the left, comes from the top wall of the shelf) flows through the entire fridge cabin, bypassing empty spaces. Accordingly, the top shelf of my refrigerator is always colder, especially the left side, closer to the inlet. Thus, depending on the density of items and proximity to the cold air intake, different levels of shelves in the refrigerated cabin differ in temperature. The temperature is uneven. Now I use a thermometer on each tier and move things around so the airflow creates a more even temperature. This method works well. I have a thermometer in the freezer. The Polder, Taylor and DayMark of the different brands of thermometers I have bought match - as verified by the measurements given. Rubbermaid's reading is higher than the other three - both Rubbermaids and Rubbermaids have different readings. Hope that helps. >>> A good thermometer for the fridge. I like the dial, but the safe zones aren't highlighted. And it's a lot less than I expected. A large temperature range is not needed, which makes it difficult to distinguish dividing lines, unlike DayMark. . But the two didn't quite agree. So I got this polder as the third arbitrage, but then it doesn't match the other two. Just ordered another one, Plus Size Taylor; Let's see if it matches any of these three. Each has its own advantages related to the dial - the color and size of the indicator hand. The key for me is being able to tell at a glance if the temperature is in the safe range before the dial fogs up - it should be easy to read. And therein lies the problem. Others have mentioned acquiring two or three of the same brands and they disagree. Well I buy them from different brands and they don't match - a few degrees off - DayMark shows the lowest reading, then Polder and then RubberMaid - I had readings of 42, 44 and 46. Read all the reviews (both positive and negative ) for most brands to determine which brand/item is most accurate and which to buy - there is no clear or absolute winner. I'll update when I get Taylor to see if it matches any of the 3 or if I get 4 thermometers next to each other disagree. I can move their positions sequentially from left to right to be more scientific, but it shouldn't matter much since they're in the same plane on the same post, so the vertical position is kept constant. Then I'll play with the vertical positions, but since the readings vary, it's hard to tell which is the true reading. Eh! Please talk to a really accurate fridge thermometer.
