Great thermometer
This thermometer was recommended as a way to stop the transmission of bacterial diseases via undercooked meats. It is easy to use and the temperatures listed on it are accurate for the finishing of meats. It performs quite well and does "instant-read". The back-light comes in handy when grilling in near-dark. I really question the antimicrobial activity of the probe cover but that can be cared for but proper washing and hygiene.
With the high incidence of food-borne diseases, this is a must and a quick way to insure the degree of cooking that is wanted.
I bought 2- one for home and one for the cottage. This might be a great gift!!!!

Great Product
This digital therometer is easy to see, to use and big enough to not get lost on the counter. I highly recommend it.

Taylor 806E4L - Red Digital Thermometer
Just wanted something to watch the temp of milk to try our hand at making some cheese. So we didn't want to spend a lot. Well, You do get what you pay for. This thermometer was something I would expect to get at a cheap superstore. The gasket was to big for the cap over the battery, when closed the contacts wouldn't meet the battery. So, we then tried it without the gasket and it did make contact and stayed on but the digital read kept changing. It would read for example 100 deg. then 94, then 108, it would not settle, I could not trust it even after calibrating it. This product doesn't deserve any stars.

This product is easy to use
This product is easy to use. The handle extension is particularly nice to help prevent burns. The large digital read-out is easy to read, although a reversible feature would be even better to facilitate use by left-handed cooks.

this product works great
this product works great when you need to use it, the read out comes right away and when you are not using it it shuts off after a while to save on the battery

I'm not happy with this
Not happy with this. At times the screen blinks 4 different colors like a stobe light, constantaly having to turn if off and back on to reset. Instructions didn't really tell you anything about the different screens and modes...
