Review on ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Accurate 12 Pack Large Dial Thermometer for Refrigerator Freezer by Daniel Smith

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Basically good enough!

I bought twelve packs of these thermometers thinking some of them were useless. To my surprise, only one of them turned out to be useless, and the remaining eleven showed temperatures within 4ยฐF of the correct room temperature (compared to a NIST traceable thermometer). It turned out that about a third was almost right, about a third was two degrees below zero, and the last third was four degrees below zero, and you didn't register any temperature changes at all, and I threw it in the trash. I also threw them all in a 0ยฐF fridge and all eleven working thermometers were also within four degrees of each other. I now have eleven fridge thermometers that are close enough to fix to be useful for monitoring food storage temperatures unless you're trying to operate at the high end of a safe operating range. Based on my experience, I'd recommend buying twice what you really need and throwing away anything that gives weird results.

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Very expensive
