Check it out. I just shitcanned a brand new Taylor frig
thermometer because it's a full 7 degrees low. (I already
threw out the wrapper and receipt.) They're only about
six bucks, but even so, +/- 1 degree shouldn't be too
much to ask for. When, I went back to the hardware store
for a replacement, I checked through a dozen or so therms
and finally picked one that agreed with the majority
consensus. I was surprised at the difference I saw on
a whole bunch of thermometers. Only about six (half) of
them agreed with one another closer then two degrees.
