Made of commercial-quality stainless steel, this Pyrex Accessories Professional series candy and deep-fry thermometer measures temperatures up to 400 degrees F. The dial has large, easy-to-read numbers in 50-degree increments from 150 to 400 degrees. A good-size clip on the side enables you to attach it to your pan. The white storage case has a temperature guide printed on the side in both Fahrenheit and Celsius, and doubles as a thermometer holder to protect your hands from the heat. Not intended for oven use. Hand wash. --Doree Armstrong

This review is from: Pyrex Candy Thermometer (Kitchen)

I purchased this item to use as a candy thermometer. It's analog dial display is in 50 degree increments with no marks in between. This makes it ill suited for its purpose where often a 5 degree range is required in many recipes. I expected more from a Pyrex product. It was made in China, and does not serve its purpose. I am returning it and buying a better quality product.

This pyrex candy/deep fry thermometer is terrific. I was a bit wary that it didn't look like the traditional candy thermometer but I took the plunge and bought it anyway...boy am I glad. The design is MUCH better than the average thermometer. It clips to the pan very easily and there is no risk of it falling into that 300 degree oil. I also liked the fact that it isn't like the usual thermometer which can sometimes collect steam inside and make it impossible to read with the condensation. This is a really handy little gadget and I would highly recommend it!

The design of this thermometer is great, much easier to use and read than the glass tube type. However I don't feel there are enough gradations on the dial. Trying to guess where 113 degrees is between 100 and 150 is a little iffy. I guess I like to be more accurate.
