The description says this thermometer is over 6" tall. That sounds rather large, can anyone confirm?

It's 3.5 inches tall - measured from the base to the top of the 'clip' from which you can hang it.

I use mine to check temps on cooking surfaces. The furthest I've tried it is around 3 feet. Sorry I'm of no help to you for your application.

I purchased a half gallon jar to test this out. It's too tall by about an inch.

Total length is 5 inches. The probe is about 4½ inches long. The temperature display is 1 3/4 inches across.

On vacation so not near it but i recall my grill is 68 inches long, and at least 42 inches high. It is huge and the grill cover was perfect.

Hi Montana Mike,The probe is 4.9 inches long. We love this thermometer for all of its features. Own many different "instant read" thermometers and find this unit far above the rest. Best Regards, Jack from The-Greatest-barbecue-Recipes.com

I've had two different kamados that have thermometers capable of reading to 700 degrees pegged well beyond where they read to. It's definitely capable of reaching some pretty high temps!

Yes, the thermometer is too high. Unfortunately I have to use a second thermometer to get the readings. I was very disappointed since this was 1 of the main reasons why I bought this kettle.

The digits displaying the time are about 1in high. The temperature is closer to 0.75in high.Photos with ruler:https://www.amazon.com/clouddrive/share?s=7uxkrwWJQIgjpFDRp7e9jU

The thermometer is 4 inches long and has a clear suction cup. I use mine in a 2 gallon tank and it doesn't look bad at all.

The actual size of the thermometer is just a little over four inches. The suction cup is clear/whitish plastic. (Okay, I don't know where Ann Marie got six inches...maybe it's a different thermometer?)

I believe it was 6" I kept returning it because they sent me a AC one and I wanted one to run off batteries.

I just measured with a tape, not calipers. It is 6" long, 2 5/16" tall, and 7/16" thick. Does this help? :)

It's 10" tall... but under no circumstances would I buy this unit. We bought 4 of them, and all 4 failed after 6 months.

Coiled it is 27" long from the scale to the readout. It will stretch farther than that. My guess is at least twice that range.

roughly a foot long. but mine broke after the first use. it was a while til I used it a second time and discovered the defect. You might look into a different meter and spend a little more on it.
