An oven's set temperature isn't always equal to its actual temperature. For accurate temperature readings at a glance, place this commercial-quality thermometer next to food in the oven-or clip it to an oven rack or roasting pan. The thermometer's dial displays large numerals in 5deg.F (2deg.C) increments. Use it for everyday baking, to calibrate a new oven or to replace an oven's old-fashioned mercury thermometer. Measures temperatures from 140deg.F to 610deg.F (60deg.C to 320deg.C). Large numerals facilitate quick temperature reading. Use alone or with the handy built-in clip. Crafted of easy-to-clean brushed stainless steel. Wipes clean with a damp cloth.
