The plus side, and the minus

Strengths

  • A published accuracy and range: ±1 °C, −58 to 572 °F
  • A hold button, so the reading survives withdrawing the probe
  • A probe cover and hanging holes, so it stores safely

Compromises

  • Not sold on Amazon.com
  • ±1 °C is about ±1.8 °F, looser than the ±1 °F the US thermometers here publish
  • No water rating published

What the listing publishes

“delivers measurement results in just 2-3 seconds. The measuring range is between -50°C and 300°C (-58°F to 572°F) with a resolution of 0.1°C/°F and an accuracy of ±1°C/°F.”

More than this page used to say. A read in 2 to 3 seconds, a range of −58 to 572 °F, a resolution of 0.1 degree, and an accuracy of ±1 °C — on a food-grade stainless probe with a fine tip, a protective cover, a hold button and hanging holes in the handle. One AAA battery is included.

Read ±1 °C/°F as ±1.8 °F

“±1°C/°F” is two figures in one. One degree Celsius is 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit, so the same probe cannot be within 1 °C and within 1 °F at once. Take the looser reading: about ±1.8 °F.

Against the thermometers sold on Amazon.com in this hub:

ThermoMonster HT09, $16.99 — ±0.5 °F, stated NIST certified, the tightest here TempPro TP-02S, $9.99 — ±0.9 °F, one second ONFIKY, $9.97 and Lonicera, $12.99 — ±1 °F, one to two seconds this — ±1 °C (about ±1.8 °F), two to three seconds

For a roast or a steak, ±1.8 °F does not change the result. For sugar work or a sous-vide check, where a degree or two matters, the tighter figures are worth the few dollars.

The probe length, as printed

“The ultra thin 14.5mm probe is made of high quality food grade stainless steel.”

14.5 millimeters would be under an inch, which is not a probe that “provides a safe distance between fingers and measuring object”. The same listing gives the thermometer 28 cm (about 11 in) overall, so the figure is almost certainly 14.5 cm — about 5.7 inches of probe. We report it as printed and flag it, rather than correct the maker.

Not sold on Amazon.com

This reference is listed on the German, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon stores, and returns no page on Amazon.com. The button on this page therefore runs a search.

In the United States, the thermometers in this hub sold on Amazon.com cost about the same and publish tighter figures — the ONFIKY at $9.97, the TempPro TP-02S at $9.99 and the ANDAXIN at $9.99 all sit within a few cents of ten dollars. Start from the cooking thermometers hub.

Why a cheap thermometer is still worth having

Because the alternative to a ten-dollar thermometer is usually no thermometer. Every contact grill, mini oven and roast on this site is improved more by measuring the inside of the food than by any other single purchase.

On temperatures

This page describes an instrument. What temperature a given food should reach is published by appliance and food manufacturers and by the USDA’s safe minimum internal temperature chart — not here.

What readers want to know

Can I buy it in the United States?

Not on Amazon.com. The reference B0G3PBWQLB is listed on the German, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon stores and returns no page on Amazon.com, so the button on this page runs a search instead. The thermometers in this hub that are sold on Amazon.com do the same job for about $10: the ONFIKY at $9.97 and the Lonicera at $12.99 publish ±1 °F and a 1-to-2-second read, and the TempPro TP-02S at $9.99 publishes ±0.9 °F and one second.

How accurate is it?

The listing prints "an accuracy of ±1°C/°F", which is two different figures: ±1 °C is about ±1.8 °F. Read it as the looser one until the maker says otherwise. For meat, ±1.8 °F is enough — the window between a medium and a medium-well steak is wider than that. For candy, tempering chocolate or sous-vide checks, a tighter instrument is worth it: the ThermoMonster HT09 at $16.99 publishes ±0.5 °F, the tightest figure in this hub.

What does the hold button do?

It freezes the display when the probe leaves the food, so the reading can be taken out of a hot oven and read at eye level, away from the heat. Skythrive also names it as the way to run a calibration check — in iced water the display should settle at 32 °F.
