 How much is accuracy worth? Jan 13, 2007
By Marc Albert
Let me preface this by saying that at $4.40 there isn't much risk in buying this thermometer. Given Amazon's great customer service I'm sure I can return it but it's not really worth sending it back. I've read the previous comments and 5-star ratings and I'm left wondering if anyone else checked the accuracy before commenting. I checked it out at with accurate digital and analog thermometers at room temperature of 68 degrees, at refrigerator temperature of 36 degrees, and at a freezer temperature of -2 degrees. In all cases I found the Taylor Professional Freezer-Refrigerator Thermometer to read 3 degrees lower than actual temperature. There does not seem to be any way to adjust the dial with the exception of taking it apart and moving the faceplate (not sure if that is possible without breaking it). I gave it only one star for just this reason; that you cannot calibrate the unit for error, not for the inaccuracy itself.
It does have a big dial and is easy to read but I think at the critical temperature of a refrigerator it is important to be accurate. I realize there may be many people who do not have the equipment to check out the accuracy as I do, but there is a significant difference in storing food at 37 degrees F rather than at 40.
So if you're agreeable to mentally normalizing the temp (as I will do) when you read it, I suppose you'd be satisfied with it given it's low cost. That last statement presupposes that the one you buy has the same inaccuracy as mine. Who knows, the one you get might be "right on" but how would you know that without calibrating it?

 multi-use thermometer Aug 04, 2006
By K. Ward
Taylor is known for its thermometers. I have used many of them through the years. This professional freezer-refrigerator thermometer is great. We had problems with our refrigerator/freezer and after my husband fixed it, we needed to have an accurate reading on both compartments. We like this one because it is large. You don't even need your glasses to check it to see if your fridge or freezer is in the correct temp. zone because the areas are clearly marked in color. It also responded rapidly when moved between the two compartments. The angle of the dial makes reading very easy.

Works Fine Jul 26, 2008
By monkuboy
I purchased this and a few days later purchased the MIU 90062 thermometer, one for each fridge. They gave the same temp readings when placed next to one another so I assume they are pretty accurate. The advantage to the Taylor is the giant dial which makes it easier to read. The advantage to the MIU is it costs less and the dial is easy enough to read, but with smaller numbers. For the price it is good to have something like this for the peace of mind it gives you to know that the fridge is operating at safe temperatures (or not at safe temps so you can do something about it). I would buy this again.

Thermometer Feb 16, 2007
By lifesgr8
After buying a new Amana refrigerator, I decided to purchase this thermometer to check the normal setting (4) for both refrigerator and freezer. I have found that I was able to reduce both of the settings by one to save more energy as the settings were colder than needed. The refrigerator setting is still a little on the cold side when the door is opened infrequently. Definitely a good buy and large numbers that are easy to read.
