Review on Thermometer Cooking PABOBIT Folding Function Kitchen & Dining by Stephanie Powells

I actually got this thermometer for the instant reading feature and it works great in that regard. Used it to bake Easter ham this weekend. The readings seemed accurate, although I didn't run the recommended calibration test or tested it on another thermometer. It registers the temperature quickly and is easy to read. I like that the device turns on automatically when you open the dipstick and turns off when you close it. You probably don't want to close it when it's dirty, which is why the device turns itself off after three minutes of inactivity. You can measure in Fahrenheit or Celsius. The thermometer has an internal magnet for hanging on the fridge or oven, as well as hanging on a hook. Doesn't take up much space in the drawer! I love red. The only negative is that the instructions are clearly and poorly translated into English from another language. I'm not sure if the translation itself is to blame or if the instructions are just not clear. I've had time to understand the alarm function, specifically how to set the desired temperature. The instructions weren't helpful and it's not particularly intuitive. You press the button labeled "M" and then the Hold button until you reach your desired temperature. The numbers only go one way, so if you miss your number, you'll have to backtrack. I give 5 stars for the instant read feature and 3 stars for the preset temperature feature. Thank you Revain Vine for the opportunity to review this product.
