We designed the OXO Thermocouple Thermometer to deliver a best in class experience for quickly and accurately reading temperatures while cooking. The thermocouple probe easily rotates out from its safe storage position using the center dial which powers up the backlit screen. Because of the precise thermocouple tip, you don’t have to insert the probe very deep to get a quick and accurate reading. The fully rotating probe and screen mean you can use it at any angle, whether you’re right- or left-handed.
