Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of CDN IRT220 InstaRead NSF Expanded Range Food Thermometer

Customer Review: A Tin Fiddle!
Summary: 1 Stars

I've had this thermometer for a year now. Why, I don't know, as it's all but useless.

First, the "insta-read" is anything but instant. It takes only a second or two less to reach a stable temperature than the old Taylors --if that. 6 seconds is the minimum and 10 is more likely. This is plenty of time to ruin a piece of fish. I've checked the CDN against the standard Taylor dial thermometers many, many times, with always the same results.

Second, or maybe it should be first, it's wildly inaccurate, and inconsistently inaccurate at that. I've checked it against a very accurate scientific thermometer, using a large water bath, again and again, and on a good day the CDN will register 20 to 40 degrees high or low (the low end tends to be high and the high end low, but you can't predict by how much).

You've watched food demonstrators touch the surface of the demo food with the tip for an instant? Forget it. It won't register at all unless you plunge it into the meat (there's a mark on the stem, not that it matters as it lies no matter what).

There is supposed to be an adjustment you can make, but there are no instructions for doing so and the bolt on the back won't budge--

Description of CDN IRT220 InstaRead NSF Expanded Range Food Thermometer

For checking the doneness on roasts, poultry and even the temperature on yeast, this Insta-Read thermometer comes in handy. It measures from 0 to 220??F, and features easy-to-read numbers on a magnified dial. The instant response means you won't lose heat from keeping the oven door or grill lid open, and it ensures efficiency in the kitchen.Features:NSF?? approved1"/2.5-cm. magnified dial5"/12.7-cm. stemWaterproof and shatterproofFor roasts, meat & poultryPolycarbonate lensStainless steel housingRecalibratableCalibration tool on sheathSheath can be used as handle extensionPocket clip
Take the guesswork out of cooking times with this InstaRead thermometer by CDN. Made of premium grade stainless steel, the slender probe inserts easily into roasting meat and gives a fast temperature read-out. Accurate to within 2 degrees, the thermometer registers a longer range than most, from 0 to 220 degrees Fahrenheit, and can even be recalibrated for continued accuracy. Therefore, the finely calibrated thermometer is perfect for testing the temperatures of everything from chilled drinks to yeasts, dough, and tempered chocolate. While not oven-proof, the polycarbonate lens creates a tight seal and also magnifies the numbers for easy reading. The thermometer may be used on meats cooked in a conventional oven, microwave, grill, rotisserie, and smoker, but should be removed from the meat as soon as the temperature is registered. The protective sheath, which features a pocket clip and loop to conveniently hold the probe, lists various types of meats along with the USDA recommended temperature for each. Certified by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF), this thermometer has been manufactured to high commercial standards. A five-year warranty covers the thermometer against defects.--Ann Bieri
