Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Taylor Classic Candy and Deep-Fry Analog Thermometer
Customer Review: Product Description Needs Updating
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this to make fudge for the first time ever this year and you can't really do that properly without a thermometer. I gave this item 4 stars because of the clip. It does not "clip" to the pan as stated in the product description. Before I took it out of the package, I thought the clip was stationery and it just clipped onto the pan. Nope. The thermometer I got has an adjustable clip, which slides up and down and rests, not clips, onto the side of the pan. The bottom of the thermometer actually rests on the bottom of the pan and when the clip is in place, the thermometer sits at a slight angle. I was worried that the mercury part was actually touching the bottom of the pan, but because of the way the thermometer sits at an angle, the mercury portion of the thermometer is about 1/2 inch away from the bottom of the pan, which insures no false readings. Unlike other reviewers, mine actually measured above 220 degrees and they probably didn't let their syrup boil long enough. Some of the other reviewers also stated that the thermometer was hard to clean or that the markings wore off or the glass cracked. Whenever you take a hot thermometer out of a pan, you shouldn't run it under cold water because that can shock the glass, causing it to crack. When I used it, I had a tall glass of warm, soapy water waiting for me and I simply soaked the thermometer in there, wiped it gently with a sponge, and it was clean in 5 minutes. If you're only going to make fudge, brittle, or other types of candy once or twice a year, pick one of these up.
