Oven Thermometer ProAccurate®, Easy-to-Read 2" Dial, Stainless Steel Housing, Temperature Zones, Stand or Hang, Monitor Oven Temperatures, NSF Certified - DOT2

Cooks Country or Americas Test Kitchen as it is also known by recommended this thermometer and it works just as indicated...seems to be very accurate and sits easily or hangs in the oven. Purchased this for my outside grill and it has been a great help when trying to get a sustained heat setting.

This thermometer works very well. It seems to give accurate temperature readings. It is reasonably easy to read.

I purchased this thermometer with another brand and they both matched each other exactly. I find all the thermometers difficult to read if placed in the middle of the oven. I would not have a problem with a larger face. The biggest drawback is that the darn thing, like most thermometers, falls down easily. If left on the metal/wire rack on it's platform it is easily knocked over as the face seems to weigh as much or more than the base. OK, use the notch at the top to hook on to the metal/wire rack and it dangles because the notch is too shallow to firmly anchor on one of the metal bars. The slightest movement and it pops from the notch and slides down the rest of the hanger, often falling off. Also, once it starts to turn after popping off the rack, it is difficult to read. Anyway, I use them to test the oven. Learned my oven's thermometer is consistently inaccurate. So, I place the two thermometers in the oven to confirm when the temperature is accurate for more than 10 minutes and remove them, place the item in the oven. Not going to ask for a service call. Too $$.

My over needs recalibrated this work well till that is done

Saw the thermometer reviewed on America's Test Kitchen. Bought it after the review. The unit is off over 50 degrees. After buying a new oven, tested it again...still not reflecting correct temperature. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: I called the CDN company (1-800-338-5594). Spoke to a very nice representative (Judy), who apologized and told me they had had a problem with these units and were in the process of fixing the problem, She is sending me a new unit ASAP. Will change the rating when the new one arrives. Not only did Judy send one thermometer, she sent two! The DOT2 and a high temperature model that works well in the BBQ. The new one is accurate and easy to read. Thank you CDN for excellent customer service!

It is accurate, but unsteady. I found that whether I hung it from, or sat it on the oven rack, it still fell even if slightly jostled. If you have a very roomy oven and can tuck it well out of the way, it’ll be great.

We purchased this based on a review on America's Test Kitchen. I'm not a huge fan of the show but occasionally something will catch my eye, especially when they review gadgets. Thousands of tests in various conditions and a history of years in evaluating kitchen products should mean something, right? I'll never be able to do that nor will most people so that's a lot of knowledge available in only a few minutes of viewing time on a show. We were anxious to use this for holiday dinners as we had never really checked our oven's temperature that closely and wanted to evaluate the accuracy of its sensor. Once we received it, we tried it with a pork roast cooking. Once the heat and the cooking were well under way, the DOT2 indicated the oven was reporting its temperature at least 50°F too high! Wow, this thing was really helpful. However we pulled out two other thermometers we've used in the past to test the DOT2 itself. Once we gave everything time to get stable, it turned out these two matched the oven within a couple of degrees and it was the DOT2 that was wrong. Consistently wrong. We tried it a couple of other times and each time it simply was off way too far from the other two thermometers and the oven where all of those matched up extremely well. The short of it is, although the DOT2 looks nice and does have a very stable base, the accuracy was terrible. A warning to anyone who, like other reviews I've seen here, is experiencing questionable readings with this thing and especially those who are contemplating purchasing it. Don't.

This thermometer works perfectly and it does not fall thru the oven grates and is easy to use. The dial is large and can be clearly read. Reasonable price. Seems sturdy and well made.

EXCELLENT PRODUCT!! MUST USE IF YOU WANT TO OBSERVE CORRECT OVEN TEMPERATURE. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED SINCE IT IS VERY PRECISE AND HELP YOU TO GET YOUR RECIPE RIGHT!

Nunca se puede confiar en el los termostatos incluidos en los hornos “económicos”, ya sea eléctricos o de gas, y siempre es bueno tener una forma de medir la temperatura por que hay recetas que requieren de una mayor precisión. Este es el termómetro ideal. Compacto simple de usar y con una precisión bastante grande y viene bien recomendado por la revista America’s Test Kitchen y las reseñas de Amazon y el precio es razonable. No es el más profesional ni el más sofisticado, pero su trabajo lo hace muy bien.

This is the one recommended by America's Test Kitchen (excellent resource - I would post link if Amazon allowed it) and it works very well.

Es una autentica porqueria. no marca .

This product is really good, it is well made and easy to arrange in the oven. This helped me realize how bad the accuracy of my oven really is! Surprisingly, when my oven indicated 470F, this product showed the real temperature, a measly 405F. I really did not think there could be that big a margin or error in my oven's thermometer. I would highly recommend using this product when cooking in an oven. This one is a reasonable price, works very well and is durable. No complaints, except for the deceit from my oven! ------********Please click the helpful button if you found my review helpful :) Thank you**********-------
