Others say...
"WAY too slow registering temp" Although I love the way it clips onto the oven rack, and it's VERY easy to read, it took about 15-20 minutes to "register" the temperature of the oven. "Finally, I can see the temperature!" I purchased a very high rated oven thermometer (Taylor, mentioned on America's Test Kitchen) and was immediately dissatisfied. It never seemed to get the accurate temperature, nor could I see the dial with out opening my oven (causing my oven to lose, what, 50 degrees?). I was steadfast with this Taylor thermometer because of its high rating, but finally purchased the Oxo Good Grips 1051106 Oven Thermometer. I could NOT be more pleased! It is accurate (on the money!) and the best feature of all is that I can see it (SEE THE TEMPERATURE) with the oven door CLOSED!! I'm so pleased. "100 degrees off what it should have been" The OXO thermometer I purchased was to replace a cheap grocery store version I'd been using. Nice concept, but mine was grossly inaccurate. My oven runs between 17 and 25 degrees below what it should be, not the 100+ degrees indicated by the OXO unit. "Poor design" I have many Oxo kitchen items, and they are well-designed tools. I was therefore excited to see that Oxo has an oven thermometer, since I do a lot of baking and needed to check the accuracy of the oven temperature. I am sad to say that this item does not live up to the Oxo name. The thermometer appears to measure the temperature properly. However, the clip-on apparatus is poorly designed. If the rack to which the thermometer is attached is bumped even gently, the thermometer pops off and falls onto the oven floor. Having retrieved and reattached the thermometer numerous times, I give up. I will be returning this item.

What our customer's say! "Useless ... Needle sticks", It worked the first time we tried it. Then the second time it was registering 100 degrees when the oven was set to 450. I set the oven to broil to see if that'd make a difference. It didn't. So I tried tapping the glass face and the needle popped up to over 500 degrees. Which the oven might have been, but I couldn't be sure. The time after that it appeared to be stuck again. I tapped it and it jumped up some degrees. I tapped it again and it jumped again. It just isn't reliable and is therefore useless. "Oxo Good Grips Oven Thermometer", My gas oven (new to me) wasn't getting to the proper temperature so baking was not satisfactory. When I put in the Oxo thermometer and set the oven to heat to 350º, it was only at 200º when the oven signaled that it was up to temperature. When I set the oven timer for 20 minutes, it was up to temperature and baking was then just fine. The thermometer made all the difference in success for me. "Just ok", It's accurate and clips nicely to the rack, but it's very difficult to read -- even when I placed it with the oven light behind ... The Kitchen Aide oven thermometer is much clearer. "Registers 100 degrees too high", Since I have many OXO items in my home, I thought that the OXO oven thermometer would also be good. Boy was I wrong! When the oven beeped to say that it had reached its temperature, the thermometer didn't read anywhere near what it should read. It took about 20 minutes for the thermometer to finally read what the oven temp was set at. Then, to make things worse, the OXO thermometer started registering at least 100 degrees above what we set the oven for. I have since bought a cheaper but reliable thermometer name which is registering just fine. In the meantime, I've had to recalibrate my oven several times to make up for the drastic readings the OXO gave me. Sorry I ever bought it to begin with. "Stays in place well, accurate, but a bit hard to see in a dark oven", Love the base of this thermometer. My old one was always tipping over as I moved things around in my old (circa 1964) oven. This thermometer seems to be dead on accurate, which is what I was primarily interested in. One drawback is that the dial is more transparent than it appears in the photos, and in a dark, unlit oven like mine, it is a bit hard to see when it is in the rear of the oven. 
Read this reviews before You buy... "a word of caution", If you are looking for a thermometer for an old oven that does not have an oven light, this thermometer is not for you. It relies mostly on the oven light to backlight the face for reading. Otherwise it is a accurate, and clips to the rack very well. "Accurate, Easy to read", this oven thermometer allows the oven light to pass from the back and illuminate its face, making it very easy to read. it clips on the oven rack so placement is not a problem. i've tested this thermometer and two others together and its accuracy is very good. this thermometer takes a while to get to the preheated temperature. to me, signals it's accuracy (i don't believe that an oven can get to 350F in 5 minutes--more like 15-20 minutes). this is probably one of the best oven thermometers around at a decent price. "Smarter than your average thermometer", 2 things make this thermometer stand out: 1) it clips to your oven rack - since i was constantly knocking over my old oven thermometer, this is a big plus for me. 2) the face is clear, and so is backlit by the oven light. i can even read it with the door closed. it seems pretty accurate too. highly recommended. |
