We purchased 2 of these thermometers beings it was the brand we had previously used and had good luck with. Within 2 weeks both of them say "lo" even after replacing batteries and will not work. We thought it was just a fluke until the 2nd one started acting up right away as well.

I visited the webstaurantstore site today to see if anyone else has had trouble with this thermometer. After about a year of use, it reads "Lo" which is a prompt to calibrate. I tried calibrating, and even tried installing a new battery, but every time I try to calibrate it, the reading remains "Lo". Based on other reviews, I realize it's nothing I'm doing wrong. Sounds like this just happens sometimes to this unit. We have two in our food rescue kitchen, and we find this to be very easy to use, clean, and store. I hope the manufacturer can figure out the glitch. I would buy again if they can resolve this glitch. Thanks!

Very nicely made thermometer, stands up to a lot of abuse in the kitchen. These do have a sensor malfunction from time to time that requires them to be replaced but for the cost it's worth it.

Thermometer buttons became increasingly unresponsive after 5-6 months of lite holding temp usage, followed by loss of calibration, which was a permanent issue due to the button failure preventing re-calibration.

This is a great little gadget and is very accurate. I like it because the probe is not to big for my steaks and is long enough to reach the center of my roast. Another great buy.

This is the best thermometer I have ever owned! Takes about 3 seconds to get an accurate temperature reading. I've gently hand washed it without incident. One odd thing about it. It automatically turns off after a few minutes but if you want to turn it off earlier you have to hold down the button which in turn turns on the backlight. I was worried that always turning on the back light would drain the battery but I've had it for 2 years and haven't needed to change the battery yet. But besides that little quirk I'm extremely happy with this little thing.

I always carry one of these thermometers with me. I have been in this industry for over 10 years and have only managed to break one of these thermometers. They're fantastically durable and waterproof, having survived being washed with my apron or chef coat on multiple occasions, have a thin probe tip for minimal marking on food items, and are always accurate to boot! I can't recommend these pocket thermometers enough!

I was very happy with this thermometer for a few weeks, but now it only displays "LO". I thought it meant low battery and bought new ones, but still just "LO", so I guess it's just broken. Maybe this one was just a dud—it otherwise seemed quite good while it worked.

We have three thermometers like this. Other than replacing the battery they have had no problems whatsoever. Of course Taylor is a great brand for thermometers too.
