Conant Vermont 4" Dial Thermometer with Living Copper Finish (#T6LFC)

Love my thermometer. A better, longer lasting alternative to the plastic ones. It is accurate. Did notice that it was out of which one day. The company has a video that explains that high or super low temps can cause it to need to be recalibrated. Followed their instructions and presto!

Although we have weather station apps on our cell phones, the temperatures can be off by 10 degrees or more at our house because of variations in locations. We were looking for an outdoor thermometer that would look nice mounted by the front door and this fits the bill. It's well-made and accurate too. The porch provides shade so the thermometer doesn't receive direct sunlight. We also bought an electronic/digital thermometer that's mounted inside by the back door, with a sensor that's mounted outside, and the two thermometers provide the same temps. In addition (I got on a sudden thermometer kick), I bought a laser thermometer to test temperatures of my oven and freezers. It was quite a bit more expensive but worth it because I cook a lot; however, the point here is that when we tested the outdoor temperature with it, it also was in agreement with the other two outdoor thermometers. Oh, and I also bought an indoor digital thermometer but that will be in a different review.

A good size for next to the window. It looks attractive and those who have seen it have commented favourably. It is a solid weight and the copper looks good. It took 2 included screws and a few minutes to mount securely. At the back is a slot for recalibrating the thermometer that just turns the arm forward or back. Reading other people's reviews there are complaints that these thermometers are not accurate and are out 2-3 degrees. I have to question what these people are doing that they need to know the outside temperature to the exact degree. These thermometers are a tasteful design that give you an idea of how hot or cold it is outside so as to know if you should wear a coat or if a t-shirt is enough. Asking for a scientific grade percision measuring instrument that is outside for years at this price is not realistic. Take it for what it is...a decorative thermometer that gives you an idea how warm it is on the other side of your window.

An attractive and accurate thermometer. I have tried a couple of others and they would be off by as much as 20 degrees making them totally useless. Have only had this one up for a couple of weeks and the temperature is always spot on.

I like to keep an outdoor thermometer that I can look at when dressing in the morning. I wasted time and money on a cheap plastic brand that perpetually said 60° even when my phone said 40°. So I delved deeper into the subject and found Conant. Voila! Great recording, and if ever it gets off, they tell you how to adjust it. Easy to read and what I like is my basic range of temperatures for my climate is from 10-2 on the dial, so I feel quite centered every morning when I view it. Hardest choice was what finish to get.

Nice looking. difficult to adjust and set temperature. old school spring (will probably last 1000 years)

I bought this outdoor thermometer for a property on the beach in California. Only copper materials will hold up in that environment, and this product appears to be as claimed, entirely made of copper. It’s been installed for a couple of months and is holding up nicely.

The thermometer appears to be accurate though only time will tell. It is visually appealing. The numbers are clear and easy to read, they are neither large or small. But the bracket and arm are as cheap as they possibly could be. The arm is just 3 1/2" long which means if you hang it outside your window it will not reach to the outside frame of the window. To use it you would have to attach to the moving window frame. I will be making a longer arm with an additional bend so that I can see it easily from the inside of the house. It is so disappointing you cant find a nice, pleasant, accurate, well designed, and executed thermometer!
