Does this thermometer have an NSF rating?

Not sure because I don't have packaging for one at the moment. However, I used them in 2 different restaurants for years and did not get busted by the Health Department. In fact, my inspector loved them because of the big range of temps that they read. Said the only reason she didn't have one was because they cost a lot and they have to buy their own. Don't know if this helps, but I'm pretty sure they are.

I not sure, I think it may, but I have been in the industry for 16 yrs, and I have always use cooper or Taylor brand, this one is my favorite, it's tough an reliable, I have 4 of them, an 5 smaller size( I'm an executive chef), just buy it you won't regret it.

Absolutely, it shows results in both Celsius and Fahrenheit. It is very easy to switch between them. I remember just holding the top two buttons for a little while and it would switch between the f and C. It also remembers what you last switched it to. This is a cool thermometer.

I'm not sure what the "rated" accuracy is. We bought and use this thermometer for testing meat that we roast on the large, charcoal grille we maintain on the outside deck. We roast all year round and have found this simple thermometer to be accurate for the purpose. I know that my wife has attempted to use this for stove-top cooking where temperature accuracy is a bit more important and she has found it to be fairly good although she has requested I buy her a better, more precise thermometer for some of the more delicate cooking she does from time to time. So my judgement from our experience is that if the requirement is to test for cooking temperatures of APPROXIMATELY 120, or 140, or 160 degrees, this thermometer presents excellent value. But if your need is to know that the oil in the pot is exactly 305 degrees, there will be much better and much more expensive thermometers from which you will need to chose.

I am not sure, as I do not have one myself, bought 2 of the thermometers for my grandchildren. They love it and say it operates easily and accurately.

No, it does not. It is also not very accurate, about 2 degrees off at room temperature, and about 3 - 4 at 32 degrees

NSF certified means that the National Sanitation Foundation has confirmed that the item in question meets safety and sanitation requirements for use in commercial settings like restaurants. Most health codes require that all items used in commercial kitchens are NSF rated. A NSF rating doesn't necessarily mean that the item is of better quality than one not NSF rated but usually DOES mean that the item will be more expensive than one not NSF rated.

No.. if you want temp. readings, this meter is not for you. Otherwise good sturdy multi-meter.

Yes, but I do not recommend this thermometer. It was never accurate for me and is now a toy my child plays with. Pay a bit more for a higher quality one. This one is a waste of money.

I have not used a thermometer, but i have used this for deep frying. i bought it exclusively for deep frying outdoors (extension cord not included). works well, i would estimate it gets up to 350 comfortably.

I've found this usefull for measuring the temperature on just about anything, but if you try to get body temperature, the problem is it gives you the surface temp, not internal temp....it will read low, like 93 or 94 deg. Shoot your tonsils and it will be higher, but not trustworthy enough to replace the normal thermometer. I love this thermometer for everything else and my battery has lasted a year so far, another plus.

I'm not sure what NSF is.... But I love this cutter. We own a small business and use this cutter everyday. We have sure got our $$$$$ worth! It has done an excellent job for us. I give it 5 stars!

I don't believe so checking the following site. http://info.nsf.org/Certified/Food/

I would not really know as I no longer have it. I replaced it with a Hayward CL200 which is a direct physical fit. which is NSF approved. If I remember there were no labels on this unit.

I don't have the product handy, but if you scroll down to the "Product Description" section, it states, "Approved by UL, NSF certification."

No. It only measures surface temps.On a side note, my unit broke within an hour of delivery. I would not recommend this product.

Yes. The safety sticker on the toaster reads "NSF" which is explained here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSF_International.

The thermometer measures in degrees Fahrenheit. Each mark on the circle is 2 degrees, but there is enough space that I feel comfortable enough reading it to an accuracy of 1 degree. The unit's overall accuracy to "official" temperatures is within a degree. At very cold temperatures (below freezing), it seems to read about a degree higher than official/digital temperatures, but I honestly think that's because there is some small amount of heat leaving the house to cause it to read a little higher. I do not notice it to read cooler than actual during summer time. Honestly, I really like this and I'm seriously thinking of getting another to put outside my bedroom window.
