Works better than thermometers with glass. The glass always fogs up on those, this thermometer has no glass. However, the temperature on a charcoal grill changes faster than this thermometer can track. I seem to have better luck holding my hand over the grill and counting the Mississippi's. Probably super duper for those with gas grills.

Inaccurate - John Alabaster -
I bought two of these for dutch oven cooking. One of them reads 200 degrees sitting on the table in 50 degree weather. The other one reads 150 degrees. The flat wire under the outside button is not well calibrated and reads consistently low when in place on the oven. Also the magnet is too weak to hold the unit on a vertical surface. This thermometer has one main purpose, to read temperature and it doesn't.
Good for one use!!! - M. J OBRIEN - Oak Point, TX United States
I bought a Taylor just like this but is was a square oval shape but same design. It worked fine the first time but quickly the face would darken and then get smoked...cleaning only removed the letter...light cleaning just so I could read. One time it got to hot and never came down on to the scale again. This was in an oven so it had to be less than 550 or so.

Numbers came off face of thermometer during 1st use - K. Cathey - Oklahoma
The theory of this thermometer was wonderful, and I thought it would be great to use in my Weber Smoky Mountain smoker to determine the temp right at the grill level. Two hours into the cook, running at about 225 degrees, I lifted the lid to baste and picked up the thermometer to wipe the smoky residue off the face to make it easier to see whilst looking through the top vent of the smoker. I was shocked to see that the numbers on the dial come right off onto the damp towel that I was using! Not on one, but on both thermometers. I have no idea if this is normal, and I know that Taylor usually has an excellent reputation, but if this low heat causes the ink to release, how does it work on really hot grills???
I may have gotten a few from a bad batch, and I have already contacted Taylor about this problem.
As usual, your mileage may vary, but this was my experience.
