## Overview

Crafted with durable stainless steel and a shatterproof lens, it’s NSF certified for food safety and built to withstand professional kitchen demands while being easy to clean and calibrate.

## Description

The Rubbermaid Commercial Products Pocket Food Thermometer has a design that keeps the thermometers from rolling off tables. The thermometer for food has heavy-duty construction featuring premium grade 304 stainless steel and clear, magnified easy-to-read dials. The food safety thermometer lens won't shatter, and it has a protective sheath. The food service thermometer is easy to clean and no additional tools are required for use.

Review: WORKS AS ADVERTISED! TELLS ME VEHICLE A/C DASH TEMPS AT A GLANCE - These items work just like advertised. They are able to be calibrated and come with instructions – they are as good as any analog A/C thermometers I've seen! And the price is unbeatable! I have them in the dashboards of my vehicles and it is easy to determine the operation and level of efficiency of the A/C systems (not to mention when it says 40°F, you know you're getting cooled down [for my wife] LOL!)
Review: Good item - I purchased this thermometer solely to use during the refilling of my car's ac refrigerant. Because of this, I needed a thermometer with a wide temperature range and food thermometers didn't meet that requirement. It was easy to adjust compared to my other thermometer from Supco (for some reason that one was just a bear to turn the nut). The dial is also easy to read, in that the lettering was crisp and clear, so the attention to detail is there. Accuracy and readability are all I would ask of a measuring instrument and this satisfies both. Because of this, I would purchase again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where is it made?**
A: Made in China.

**Q: Does it have a warranty?**
A: Thank you for choosing Rubbermaid Commercial. Our goal is to provide our customers with the highest quality and service. The Rubbermaid Commercial Products Food/Meat Instant Read Thermometer, Pocket Size (FGTHP220C) has a 1 year limited warranty. For warranty assistance  please call Rubbermaid Commercial Products at 800-347-9800, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm EST, Monday through Friday.

**Q: Description bullet point #4 states; "nearly seamless glass and metal material makes cleaning simple and easy". is the lens glass or plastic?**
A: This looks terrific and is small enough but can't remember if it's glass or plastic on temperature gauge.  The metal is easy to clean, however, it isn't accurate and takes forever to show temperature.  I threw it out as I was past the return date.

**Q: Where along the probe does it measure temperature if using for ambient air?  At the very tip, or along the length of the probe somewhere?**
A: Food Health Inspectors measures refrigerator temperatures using a glass of water with a stick thermometer (placed in the middle of the refrigerator for an hour or so) since water is a good gauge for temperature (freezes at 32F and boils at 212F). I supposed you can measure the ambient air using the same method otherwise use a glass mercury/alcohol thermometer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ careful not to twist
*by J***. on December 18, 2024*

Works fine, but be careful not to twist as this will alter calibration. Has made me a better cook by cooking by temperature instead of over-cooking like I used to.
