Monitor cooking temperatures from vegetable stocks to pork roasts with the Polder Professional Instant Read thermometer, which digitally reads in 1-degree increments (both Celsius and Fahrenheit). If you are unsure of the correct cooking temperature, see the handy guide located at the back of the thermometer. The thermometer includes a 36-inch cord to hang around the neck, a clip for pocket attachment, and a protective sleeve. --Madeleine Miller

Define "instant",

This review is from: Polder Professional Digital Instant-Read Thermometer (Kitchen)
Since the thermometer is plastic (exterior), I have to hold it by hand, which would not be a problem if in fact it were an "instant" read thermometer as it claims. It takes at least a minute or two...which is a long time while you are just standing there. I honestly find my non-instant read thermometer is just as fast. So here I am shopping for another brand of instant reads; I hope I have better luck on the next one.

A good thermometer, but falls short of other digitals,
By Thomas P McNulty (Gaeta, Latina Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Polder Professional Digital Instant-Read Thermometer (Kitchen)
The Polder "Professional Instant-Read Thermometer" is a great thermometer in many aspects. It reads all tempuratures quickly and accurately with any problem and helps the first time cooker with cooking temps. on the back of the thermometer. Resetting is a cinch and the handy cover sleave protects against burns and steam. The "necklace" cord was a really great idea while still allowing you to clip it to your pocket. So what is wrong with this thermometer? Quite simply, small display and the inconvenience of bending down in an uncomfortable position to read temps. Then display is found on the side of the thermo thus prompting you to bend down with your head sideways over a hot pot or roast. Plus with the small display screen I am even closer than I intend to be. Although a reliable device, I would recommend another digital thermometer with bigger display and a display that faces up and away from your food.

Rather good, but .....,
By
This review is from: Polder Professional Digital Instant-Read Thermometer (Kitchen)
This thermometer is working rather well but the "hold" feature is not working as indicated in the manual. You have to keep the "hold" button down and then the thermometer holds the temperature as measured. Another but: the reaction time is rather slow e.g. in comparison with the Pyrex professionnal thermometer/timer. So don't expect to test the doneness of a thin steak: the steak will be overdone by the time this thermometer gives any reasonable reading.
