Review: when I finally got the thermometer it only worked for a week before it stoped working.
Review: 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!)

## 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.
