Well to start with is it a very compact thermometer. The needle folds up nicely and has covering for the tip so there is no worries of jabbing your finger when you go to pick it up. The unit has 3 function buttons. First is the on/off button in red. Then we have a c/f button to change which measure you want the temp in. Lastly is the hold button, and both of these other two buttons are blue. It offers a decent size view screen on the LCD panel. Which makes it fairly easy to read. Quick Temp measures between -58 to 572 degrees Fahrenheit which to me is a very large range. The unit only requires only one AAA battery to power it as well.
As you can see from the picture my nephew is learning to cook. So we are taking some chicken breasts and cooking them out on the grill. I told him he was going to get to use this new thermometer to get the temperature of the meat while he was cooking. He was being impatient, like any normal teen and wanted to "probe the meat" as he called it! Either way this is a great unit for anyone especially new cooks leaning their way around a chunk of meat. It has a fairly long probe which makes it ideal to get temperatures on large meats like prime rib, hams, or roasts. The only thing that I think might need to be improved upon is the LCD screen, it does not have a back light which makes it kind of difficult to read cooking on the grill in the backyard after the sun has gone down.
If you are an experienced cook, new cook, back yard griller, or just the run of the mills experimentalist in the kitchen this is a great unit to consider for recording the temperatures of your food. This is also great for those needing to test liquids. Say for instance needing to check the temperature of the bottle of milk you are warming up at three A.M.! Instead of the mistake of over heating it and then squirting it on your arm to make sure it is not to hot and scalding your own arm can now be over with. Clean up is a breeze with this unit as well. All it requires is a little bit of soapy water and a quick wipe down. I would like to thank Zombiedisasterkits.com and affiliates for sending me this QuickTemp™ Digital Thermometer to try out and leave my opinion.
