LABORATORY THERMOMETER (-10°C - 110°C)

I got this because another laboratory analogue thermometer I purchased was difficult to read. I can easily read the temperature with this.Further I calibrated it and found it to be accurate. In a bucket of melting ice and water it =0.0 and in a kettle of distilled water at a rolling boil it =100.0

Seems to be ok. Easy to read, I am using it to get temperatures balanced in fish tanks which is not critical but seems to be OK. So would recommend it for my limited usage.

After buying two digital thermos that gave seemingly insane readings 4 or 5 degrees higher than what I imagined the temperature to be, I had to get a glass one I could calibrate. This one did the job, although the first had shattered in the tube as the packing doesn't surround it with any protection and it just rattles inside its plastic sleeve.In boiling water it read 99 degrees. In melting ice, -1. That shows the thermo is reading one degree too low, so I can read accurately just bumping up its reading one degree. And as a result of having a scientific reference point, I can calibrate other thermos against this one. Turns out those two digital thermometers were bang on and my ideas of what the temperature were based on how it felt to me were completely whack!A glass thermo is too fragile and specialist for everyday use. This one provides an affordable means to calibrate more practical thermos without having to shell out big bucks on scientific calibrated digital thermometers. I consider it a good investment.

Highly inaccurate, won’t read below 10C

This is a good thermometer and is very durable. Packaging was very strong and it is very accurate in readings. Perfect for every day home use and for scientific research.

After dropping my original glass thermometer, I checked out the reviews on several replacement items. This one came out on top for accuracy and response time. I use it for bread making where the water temperature is critical, so accuracy is paramount. I can confirm that it is very accurate when tested against a calibrated device. It came with a protective case which is a bonus, as it wasn't mentioned in the advert. Very please after using it for my bread making. Would definitely recommend.

I bought it to keep an eye on the temperature of my fridge. Overall accuracy was not essential, but consistency is and it performs admirably. It comes in a handy container, which helps keep it safe.

I like a physical properties thermometer in the mix. A solid reference for possibly wayward electronic devices. This fits the bill, I actually use it far less than the electronic thermometer but this allows me more confidence those devices are working properly and not wandering off.By cross referencing it appears to be accurate to fractions of a degree
