1Taylor failureJul 31, 2008
By G. Weymann
I have had Taylor thermometers before. They worked quite well in all types of conditions. This particular unit, however, does not work. The fluid flows around the floats that are intended to measure the high and low temperatures. There is no way to re-set these floats... including freezing the unit or subjecting it to centrifugal acceleration. I am sorry that I will have to consider other brands in the future.

1Save your moneyApr 24, 2009
By Harrikins
I have to agree with the majority of reviewers here. This thermometer is worthless. Mine had the maximum marker stuck in the colored temperature registering column. I managed to get it out eventually with a strong magnet, but once the temp heated up again, there it was stuck again. It never registered the maximum temp. The minimum marker would move with the column as it was supposed to. However, it would not stay at the minimum temp and would move right back with the column as it heated up. I noticed that the current temperature didn't seem very accurate either. So - doesn't register maximum temp, doesn't maintain minimum temp, and doesn't give current temp = worthless as a thermometer.

I took mine back and got a Sper 736680 max-min for just a couple of dollars more and it performs like a champ.

4Fairly AccurateSep 05, 2006
By R. George
This is a reasonably accurate thermometer, unlike most of the digital and large-size thermometers. I've had one for 15 years and will replace it with another because the printing is finally corroding away. Yes, the numbers are small and the min-max markers sometimes take a little fiddling with. Obviously it's not completely fool-proof but it is an inexpensive way to know what the temperature is and has been.

1JunkMar 25, 2011
By Raluca
Here is what I wrote to Taylor...

I bought your model 5460 to measure min/max temperatures in my greenhouse paying $27 for it. After opening the package I noticed the min/max needed to be reset and there was some fluid above one of the min/max indicators. I preceded to spend 30+ minutes trying to get work correctly per the instructions on the package.

I brought it back to the store and they said these are returned all the time. I proceeded to buy 1523 Digital Indoor/Outdoor Thermometer/Hygrometer because they did not carry anything but Taylor products. I plugged it in and after leaving the outdoor sensor directly next to the base unit it measures 7F different than the indoor (and yes I waited, a day for them to change). Unfortunately I threw out the box or I would have returned this as well. The hardware store is trying to find a better quality product, as are other farmers that want reliable measurements.

I ask you to stop selling this junk. It is absolutely worthless, and even worse so, threatens peoples livelihoods. If a digital thermometer is 7F off this is a serious threat to my crop planning.

1markers stickNov 02, 2007
By J. Selby
One end of the glass U tube was broken in the package upon arrival. The max/min markers stick inside the tube and can be impossible to free. The scale is crude and is hard to read. Overall cheap construction compared to the price. Vastly inferior to the old Taylor max/min mercury thermometers.
