1-star rating due to poor quality control resulting in 2 of the 3 thermometers purchased not working, rather reading backwards. Apparently the manufacturer (RUTLAND) does not inspect adequately. Had inspection been done they would have noticed the spring coil was installed backwards in 2 units. After correct installation (not everyone would do this themselves) the product worked fine.

After reading the only other review I should have avoided this thermometer. As stated in the previious review the thermal coil is installed backwards resulting in the needle rotating in reverse (negative) direction. This makes the device unusable.

The previous reviewer was able to reverse the coil and as I am fairly handy I am about to attempt the same to avoid the hassle of return (my printer is broken and I would have to print a return lable). My new wood stove is ready to install and I need to do the break-in burn to cure the paint during which the stove is to only be fired to 250-300 degrees. If I don't have a somewhat accurate temp reading the paint could be degraded.

Simply not accurate. Reading off by 100%.

Compared with other stove pipe thermometer its off. When stuck in the oven with three oven thermometers its off by 100%.

Quality control is not there.

I bought this to replace a thermometer that laid flat on the stove top. This one stands up so I can easily see it from across the room. That works fine. It seems to read about 100 degrees less than my previous one, but I suppose that is because it does not have as good contact with the stove top as the other. Anyway, I can take that into account when I read it. It does what I expected it to do.

I purchased this thermometer about a week ago and it already doesn't read the temp. Its been sitting between 0 and 200 for the last 3 burns in my stove. And I know it was hotter than 200 as I couldn't touch stove. At 200F you should be able to touch for 5 seconds before wanting to pull hand away. I've never got my stove overly hot so I don't know why this thing doesn't work. This was cheap and you get what ya pay for.
