This thermometer has a very solid metal body surrounding the actual thermometer element which protects it from the back, bottom and top. However the face of the thermometer is protected only by being recessed as compared to the ridges on the sides, bottom, and top. This means as with all glass thermometers that you need to be careful. The body itself is solid enough that I feel pretty safe about putting it into a tub with my other Rosette making items, as long as this is on top and I don't jostle the tub too much. I may wind up packing this away by wrapping it in a towel.
The back of the thermometer has a metal clip that can be slid up and down the body of the thermometer to position it on the edge of whatever container you need it in. The clip is pretty snug to the body and depending on your needs you may need to bend it out a bit. The pot I was using this in the first time had a very pronounced curve at the bottom edge which pushed the thermometer out from the edge and made the hold of the clip to the body somewhat tenuous until I adjusted it.
Temperatures are presented in both Fahrenheit and Celsius and are easily readable. The thermometer element is red and is easily viewable from several angles, though if you try and read from a wrong angle you will not be able to see the temperature at all.
Since this is my first candy thermometer I cannot speak as to its accuracy, but in using it I did find that it helped me maintain a fairly constant temperature for my Rosettes that allowed them to crisp up very nicely.
In my opinion this thermometer is a worthwhile purchase for the kitchen. I sense many baking adventures with it in my future.
Also, it was an excellent sale.
Only downside on this unit (as with others) is the clip that keeps it on the pot. It does come off, at times, when you don't want it to, and can be difficult to keep on the pot of you have a staggered lip.

Quando fui testar o termômetro chegou a quase 200°C sendo que em outro termômetro que já uso a um tempo não estava marcando nem 80 a temperatura do meu teste. Coloquei em uma água gelada que para minha surpresa permaneceu nos 90°C.
Vendedor disse pra eu procurar o fabricante.

The tenperature readings are accurate and though it takes a little getting used to, to understand how it works during the cook process, it works great.
