I bought and tested five oven thermometers, including:• Taylor Classic Series Large Dial Oven Thermometer ($6.12)• CDN DOT2 ProAccurate Oven Thermometer ($9.00)• Rubbermaid Commercial Products Oven Monitoring Thermometer ($5.95)• Admetior Kitchen Oven Thermometer ($15.99)• Winco TMT-OV3 ($7.32)The Taylor was quite good. It was both accurate and responsive. On readability, I ranked it 3rd out of the 5, because the numbers are not bold, and the hash marks are too close, due to its range from 100° to 600°. The large face (2-5/8″) did help with visibility. It is not NSF certified, and in the end I rated it a close second overall to the Rubbermaid, which is NSF certified and, even though 1/2″ smaller in diameter, seemed more readable though the oven door, due to the bold print.

I was wondering why my baked goods would come out with different results.So, I decided to purchase this Oven Thermometer, primarily to find out how good the thermal sensor, built into the oven, actually was.Come to find out, If I believe this one, the “oven sensor” is off by more than 100 degrees Fahrenheit.Now I don’t wonder anymore, why my goods didn’t come out right!I primarily bake all kinds of bread and it is essential to keep baking time and temperature at the value that is called for.In particular with bread, if it is too hot, the crust will become hard and not crunchy. Basically drying out the interior.The guessing is pretty much over, my recent breads came out just fine and delicious.

I was having the strangest problems when cooking. I was trying new recipes, for cakes, dinners, appetizers, and they would always come out undercooked, raw, despite me following directions to a T.I went to good ol’ Dr Google and began to research why this could be happening, and the common consensus was that perhaps the oven was, in fact, not cooking at the right temperature.I purchased this, because it was cheap, I wanted to just see if maybe the temperature was an issue. When I first got it, it told me it was cooking 20degrees LOWER than what I set the oven at, I thought this was absolute crap, no way, so I purchased another, thinking it was broken – Same thing.So the next time I baked, I upped my temperature by 20, and cooked, bam, food was perfect, I haven’t had a problem since, I keep both of my thermometers in the oven now, and I use them to gauge the temperature of my oven, I have no raw/undercooked foods anymore

Living in a house with older appliances, I was a bit concerned that our older oven may not be accurate – which is a big deal for me as I enjoy cooking, especially baking, frequently, and have moved on to more complex recipes where temperature is more important. Took a few times to figure out the best placement in the oven, but we also compared it with a 2nd thermometer and it is absolutely accurate – turns out our oven is, in fact, about 10 degrees off from the digital display. Best placement is hanging from the top rack in the center of the oven, and we did crimp the hook a bit with pliers after figuring this out, as pulling the oven rack out too fast would make it fall. Very happy with this purchase, and recommend to anyone!

Oven temperatures vary and if it’s too far off from the temperature you think you set it at your baking creation might not turn out the way you hope. I think oven thermometers are a must have for serious bakers. This one works great. We recently moved and I could not find my original Taylor Classic oven thermometer after the move. I strongly suspected the temperature of the oven at the new house was quite a bit off. I ordered a new thermometer, and I am so happy I did. The oven I was using was running 50+ degrees higher than expected. With the thermometer I could adjust the temperature appropriately and my family didn’t have to eat overcooked/burnt food.
