The KitchenAid pivoting digital kitchen thermometer unites many thermometers needs in one handy product. First, the oversized 2. 5cm LCD readout displays the temperature boldly and clearly. Not getting the viewing angle desired? The head of the thermometer pivots and adjusts into multiple angles - no bending, twisting or angling to read the temperature. Other features include an ultra-thin thermometer tip, a handy pocket/storage sleeve, and a Celsius/Fahrenheit conversion switch. Combined with a temperature range that reaches a high 250C/482F, this thermometer will become one of the most useful tools in your kitchen. Note: digital thermometers are not meant to be left in food during cooking. The plastic and electronic components could be damaged by excessive heat. IMPORTANT: The thermometer will be hot after use. Use oven gloves when handling hot thermometers.
