Works as expected
Appears well made. Dial easily read. Size as expected. Setup…..stick it in your oven and you’re done. Appears accurate as it’s matching my oven temp. Overall a decent purchase for a reasonable price.

Refrigerator / Freezer Thermometer
Refrigerator / Freezer Thermometer. Attached to this review is a picture of the info on the back of the package. 2025 review: The Refrigerator / Freezer Thermometer works but I'm not sure how accurate it is, since I don't have calibrated scientific equipment. It is "good enough" I think. My idea was to put one unit in the fridge, one in the freezer, and one in my basement freezer. I now have 3 Rubbermaid Refrigerator / Freezer Thermometers. One I got back in 2018, and two more in 2025. The one from 2018 still works fine. Of the two new ones, one of them reads the same as my 2018 model, the other is two degrees F higher. I have no way of telling which readout is more accurate. There is a difference between Accuracy and Precision. Accuracy is how close to the truth it is. Precision is how close to the same result something reads each time, not considering the truth. For example, a thermometer that reads the exact temperature would be Accurate. A thermometer that reads a few degrees off, but by the same amount each time, would be Precise. Lastly I think it would be great if someone would do a test of all major thermometers, using calibrated scientific equipment.

Simple as it gets, easy to read. Seems accurate.
Simple as it gets, easy to read, affordable, seems accurate. It shows my freezers coldness status as basic "working as designed" level of cold. I have 2 old Frigidaire chest freezers that are each 3.5 feet high and 2 X 3 foot lid size. With this thermometer in the middle back of the freezer (half way vertically from the top) "Freezer One" is at 0 degrees Fahrenheit and "Freezer Two" is at 2 degrees above zero. My understanding is that Zero degrees is the norm. You can get some home consumer freezers (usually chest type) down to -4 F and sometimes even -20 F in some brands. Consumer home units are not always clear on if they will go the extra mile colder. I have read that "Frost free" freezers "heat up" and refreeze something like 4 or 5 times a day. I learned this from reading up on refrigeration online - I am not a professional, just a concerned consumer who has been trying to educate himself. YMMV. OPTIONAL DIGRESSION / THIS CAN BE BORING - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! A freezer that gets to -4 or lower is desirable in reducing the survivability of hookworms / roundworms / tapeworms in various fish (examples: cod, Salmon, halibut). I have read safety suggestions to leave the fish at -4 or below for a full week. That and heating the fish meat to 140 degrees F (for a piece less than 6 inches in thickness) kills parasites or... makes them so disabled / dopey that they wont survive your stomach acid. I've never had an infection but after reading about it, I want to make sure any parasite critters in my foods are dead. If you can be * sure * your fish was flash deep frozen then most likely you don't need to worry about this aside from cooking the fish sufficiently. I have retained my current freezers due to interia (i.e. dreading the upheaval of replacing them, the whole swap out), it will probably be a spring cleaning "project". I am considering getting a "True" brand freezer which, from what I can tell, is a semi-pro grade (i.e. not laboratory grade but more solidily engineered than consumer) freezer that can get down to at least -4 F and possibly further. Back to the Rubbermaid thermometer: For what I paid, I am pleased with it. it is LOW hassle and durable. I also recently purchased a digital Freezer thermometer from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HO4VZRQ/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_8. I'm sure the digital will be more hassle / loseable / breakable. It may be more accurate. I will report back on how closely the two thermometer types compare down the road.

Good value for the money.
Very accurate. We purchased two(2) different oven thermometers and both gave the same results.

UPDATE Cooper-Atkins 25HP-01 & Rubbermaid FGR80DC Refrigerator Freezer Cooler Fridge Thermometer
Went from 5 stars to 3 stars I ordered this 2 June and received it 4 June and it went straight into the freezer. 14 July 2022, I had to defrost the freezer and took everything out including the Rubbermaid and Copper thermometers. The Cooper is fine. The Rubbermaid has 3 water bubbles inside it and it has condensation inside which fogs up the ability to read it. I looked it over and it looks sealed all the way around but obviously it is not. You can still read the Rubbermaid thermometer but it should not be allowing water/condensation inside of it. It still works well because it records the same temp as the Cooper. In the morning, I will take my Rubbermaid thermometer out to the deck and let the sun hopefully dry the inside of this Rubbermaid thermometer out if by morning there is still 3 water bubbles in it and condensation. It is too late to send this back or I would. I hope the water inside issue does not warp the numbers or anything else inside the thermometer over time. BUY THE COOPER thermometer. OLD REVIEW BELOW I purchased a new small manual frost freezer "Danby" because frost free freezers don't last as long today. Wanting to keep it simple with less things to break - manual the way to go. However, most appliances (refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, etc) last only 7 years on average now because all owned by China, built in China or use Chinese parts and smaller appliances like microwaves and little things like thermometers last even less long. I read hundreds of reviews by people who lost thousands of dollars in frozen meat/food when their "new" freezer died or did not freeze food properly. I wanted a thermometer that worked but I didn't want to mess around buying batteries for it every few months. I looked for a restaurant thermometer and these had to be NSF certified which eliminated most of the Amazon thermometers except the 2 below. I purchased both of them. They arrived at same time and they went into the freezer at same time. They both registered the same reading and have been working for well over 2 months now. I have much older manual frost free freezer I am going to buy 2 more and put in there. Fingers crossed, the freezers will continue working properly for years to come but knowing a proper thermometer reading is just as important to give me heads up.

I have used this 5-6 times in the oven so far. Works perfectly well. The dial is clear to read through the oven glass, hangs unobtrusively and seems to be of sturdy construction. Helped me understand how long it takes my oven to reach a particular temperature as well as the unequal distribution of heat in the oven (after 2-3 attempts)

I have used this thermometer for more than a year now. Ànd very often too. It has never failed me

Bought this item because my new cooker has a temperature dial which is not very accurate. 1 smidgy turn could add on 10°. Lags behind the cooker getting up to temperature but give it a few minutes it gets there.
