Easy to see

easy to use

It's a keeper.

This has a large dial that is easy to read, even when fogging up from the heat of the food. It has a scale on the bottom that shows what temp is needed for different meats. I like the flat bottom, which allows you to put it in the side of the food and rest it on the edge of the dish. The round ones have a tendency to turn; this one stays put. Says you can adjust the reading. Since I do not have an NSIT certified thermometer to check it against, I don’t think that’s very useful. Had to buy a new one after my old one got full of water. That one was several years old. My old one looked like the picture, but this new one has a row of dots instead of the black and red bars. Chart doesn't include fish.Also bought the analog quick read. Standard thermometer that works well. The dial has one flattened side which keeps it from rolling. It came with a gadget that you can slip it into and then have a handle so you don’t have your hand over a hot pot. This worked OK. The label says the gadget is also a sheath, but the thermometer will not fit in the holes on either end. Description says it is 2 inches across, but it is only 1 inch across.

I use it for cooking medium rare. Personally I enjoy the part where it states the tem for chicken, medium rare, etc. However I dont know how accurate because the heat from your hand set it off. It works and worth the money.
