Product Description: The Connoisseur Oven Thermometer measures oven temperatures from 150-600 degrees F. The large thermometer has a 2 1/2" viewing dial for easy reading, with stainless steel construction and silicone grips for safe and easy handling. Versatile three-position alignment allows the thermometer to hang, stand, or clip to an oven rack. Since most oven temperatures vary from top to bottom and side to side, place an oven thermometer next to food while cooking to ensure the most actuate reading of cooking temperature. Our premium line of Connoisseur thermometers represent the epitome of the Taylor reputation. With its distinctive look, this series clings to all things culinary. This line features full stainless steel cases designed with uniquely shaped, oversized dials, which avoid counter roll-off. Plus, the silicone accents around the dials aid in gripability and add a splash of color. All are calibrated with pinpoint accuracy to provide quality results day after day. Heritage, precision accuracy, innovation, style -- no other thermometer line combines all four.

Average Rating:
Rating: - Too hard to read
This product appears to have solid construction. There are little rubbery (probably silicone) things on the sides which are probably to allow you to take it out of the oven when it is hot, but I don't feel comfortable attempting to do that. The little stand/hangar thing that you can use to attach it to your oven rack would be fine for racks with bars spaced about 1/2" to 1" apart, but unfortunately mine are about 1 1/4" apart which means that it only partly works, and partly wants to fall through. If the bars on the rack were farther apart it wouldn't work at all.
Rating: - Hard to read, dubious about accuracy
I bought this to replace an older Taylor. It's premium priced, but in fact badly designed; small numbers on the scale, soon obscured by baked on, can't get off stains, and illegible through the oven door. All others available have similar problems, except Sunbeam, but it's inaccurate, and the 5 Taylor's models seem often inaccurate. So much for the old standard! Are any of the digitals any better? Especially the remote ones? I am going to buy a few and find out.

Rating: - Accurate; Easy to Read
I purchased this product for my wife because cooking times in our oven suddenly started to vary from expectations, and I began to believe the thermostat was the problem. First of all, the dial is very large and easy to read (for young eyes), but we find it's a good idea to eyeball the needle position for the desired temperature on the dial, then clip the thermometer onto a rack (it attaches and detaches easily), and preheat the oven. The angle of the dial vis-a-vis the clip swivels easily, and the thermometer is easily visible through the oven window, but you can't read the temperature (because of ... Read More
Rating: - OK, but not perfect
I am somewhat dissapointed in this device; but I've not found an oven thermometer anywhere that is 1) easy to read IN the oven, 2) able to remain clean for a long time, and 3) easy to attach or balance on the oven racks. This one has very good accuracy and a large dial, but it will NOT remain where I put it in the oven. The darn thing makes me get down on hands and knees to read it, all the while letting the heat escape from the oven. Save yourself a lot of grief and spring for the exterior thermometer type with the internal probe.
