    IHT-21K Instant-read thermometer

    "Used now for 1 month, it is excellent and reliable. I tested it against a more expensive calibrated Thermapen. The readings were identical in both iced-water (0. 0 oC) and boiling water (100oC). I did not need to calibrate the Inkbird, because it was within specs right out of the box. Response times were identical at less than 1 second to go from room temperature 25 to 100 oC. Inkbird is simpler to use and to calibrate than the Thermapen. And the Inkbird display is MUCH more visible with bright white numbers on black background, viewed from any angle or lighting. I prefer the USB-C charging, compared with batteries of the Thermapen."

    Accurate

    "Extremely reliable and precise. The instant-read feature is excellent, and it's a huge plus that it displays in both Fahrenheit and Celsius."

    Instant read thermometer

    "Love this new instant read thermometer, registers very fast. Another great product from Inkbird, been a fan for over 4 years now. Their bluetooth temp probes woork a lot better than the way more expensive Meater version. I bought a Meater "Block" 3 years ago, highly dissapointed and don't use anymore. Waste of $500"
