Product Description

Making candy is sweeter with the OXO Good Grips Candy and Deep Fry Thermometer. This glass Thermometer is offset to allow for large, easy-to-read graphics, which include temperature ranges for different candy types. The measurement markings temperature within two degrees in F and C for accuracy. The convenient clip is extra long to make it easy to attach, remove or adjust and the rounded foot helps prevent scratching on the sides or bottom of your pot. The large opening in the handle allows you to lift the Candy and Deep Fry Thermometer out of the pot using a utensil and the durable, stainless steel body is easy to clean. This Thermometer isn't just for candy! It's also great for measuring oil temperature for deep frying and for making jellies and jams.

Same problem as so many others

Same problem as so many others
First off, I bought this a couple months ago knowing I wanted to try out making churros. I should have tried it out back then because now I can’t get my money back and by seeing just how many people are having the same issue as me, there is no way they can’t know about it. See the photo I attached. The red line is all broken up and, as you can see, it’s not in oil. I am sitting outside witting this review and the thermometer is as cool as a cucumber yet still shows temps all the way at the top. No amount of shaking works. DOA. Don’t buy this product- there is a lot of us that this has happened to.
Thank you for your feedback
