Top 10 best Home Thermometers 2022 Price and Feature Comparison

I got one of these a few years back and have been very happy with it. It matched the humidity and temperature on an old Taylor temp and humidity gauge. You can see that gauge in the background of the picture.Well I’m moving and our new place has a finished lower level and I’ll be running a dehumidifier down there in the Summer months to keep the humidity levels down so that we don’t get mold/mildew/musty odors. I want to be able to measure humidity at the far ends of that area and in the middle where I plan on placing the dehumidifier. So, I ordered two more. At around $10 each, I think these are a bargain.My first thought when the two new ones arrived was to see how they compared – see the picture with this review. Humidity shown is 56, 55, and 57. Interestingly, my 2 year old one shows 56 which matches my old Taylor. I am assuming that one of the new ones reads 1% RH higher and the other reads 1%RH lower. This is totally acceptable for this type of gauge for what I’m using it for.I rarely use the temperature measurement but 74.7, 74.8, and 74.1 are all reasonable readings.I’m so glad that I got the additional two gauges and they will be a big help in figuring out where to place my dehumidifier and what to set it at to assure my lower level is kept at a low enough humidity level to avoid any issues.Update: I forgot to mention the humidity and temperature range feature. I think that this can be quite useful. Once you put the battery in and the unit starts, it will keep track of the lowest and highest reading for both humidity and temperature.Now, let’s say that you forgot to turn your dehumidifier on in early Summer – it might get as high as 70 or 80%RH. So you turn the dehumidifier on and it brings things down. You don’t care about that high reading any more, but you might want to see what sort of range running the dehumidifier is giving you. Just push the C/F setting button on the back and hold for 2 seconds – that will reset the high and low for both humidity and temperature – very handy feature! I saw one review that said that it couldn’t be re-set … I’m thinking that person didn’t read the owners manual. 😉 You could also re-set it by simply removing the battery and then putting it back in, but the 2 second button press is the way to go.Aug30, 2022I’m adding an update to this review – I ordered another gauge, you can see I like these. 😉 However I had a problem with it – it reads 4% lower than my other ThermoPro’s – see second picture – I marked that one with a small piece of green tape. I had this problem with one I ordered a few months back- returned it and reordered and the next one was OK.And that said, I have had no problem at all having them last. Some reviewer have reported failures after a short time. Some of the ones I have are around 2 years old now.

I was looking to get a humidifier. Before I splurged on that, I thought I first should check what my current humidity was. At the time, I was living in Los Angeles, and it was winter. Both meters read that my humidity was 9% at the lowest. I bought a humidifier immediately because I knew I needed it.The humidifier I got can be set to turn off once the humidity reaches a certain level. I used this as a reference to determine the accuracy of these meters. If I set my humidifier to turn off at 50% humidity, these meters when close by would always read 50%. I’ve cross-referenced thermometers to check the accuracy also, and they’ve always been on point.Overall I’m very impressed with these little things. I love having two since I keep plants in separate areas, I can put a meter in multiple places. I love that they have a kick stand to prop themselves up. They came with batteries and I’ve had mine on for almost a year straight and so far no dead batteries. They’re small and subtle enough to blend into an area. They also magnetize, which is very cool. I’ve kept mine on the fridge before.Lastly the high/low feature could be better. I wish I knew how far back the meter pulls for the high/low data. I lived in California when I got them, and now I live in Alaska. The high/low has been decreasing with time which tells me there’s a drop off of data, because my all time high temp use to be 117, now it’s “only” 101. I wish I knew the amount of time data is stored to pull these high/low data sets. This is my only complaint and it’s so small, it’s mostly out of curiosity than any actual fault of the device.The smiley/frowny faces are a cute touch, they indicate when humidity is nicely high and depressingly low.For the price, and the quality/accuracy, I will definitely repurchase. These are great for houseplant owners that just want a little more data on the ambiance of their plant’s area without breaking the bank. They’d also be good for anyone that suffers from skin/breathing conditions impacted by humidity/temperature.

what’s most important in the cold and not fade this summer😀. Also kept get reading of temperature. Outdoor thermometer

Probably should have known the price was too good. The outdoor transmitter died after one camping trip. Not sure exactly how long it lasted, but less than 75 days. Tried new batteries and restarting. Even side by side the main unit would receive the outdoor temperature.Update: Found it was the batteries in the base unit. Although it appeared to be working other than not showing an outdoor temp, when i changed the batteries in the base unit it started receiving and showing outdoor temps. So not sure how long the Costco batteries lasted but less than 75 days. Could be normal for a devise like this

This is a great weather station & like all of the features it provides. I’ve had this station for 10 months & recently had a issue where both the internal temp & humidity were “stuck” on the same numbers for days. I reached out to the “service@newentor.com” & got an immediate reply: “Please try to reset the device completely. Please hold (MEM) button for 3S to clear history, then remove all batteries, unplug the adaptor, wait about 1 hour, and plug in the power adaptor & insert batteries again.” This worked great, after the hour the internal facts were updated & has been working great. There was another step to try but wasn’t needed due to it working immediately when powered back up.Another point to make is, per the manual I got with my unit, it didn’t specifically state the batteries provided back up when power goes out when using the power adaptor. I sent another reply & they answered that this is true. So far haven’t lost power, good thing, but confident this will keep working as long as the batteries last.I’m hoping this unit will last a very long time, we’re happy! Again, great product & support!

I live in southern California and it gets really hot and dry out here! In an effort to not overdo it with my humidifier or A/C, I opted to get these hygrometers to keep track of the humidity and temperature in my apartment. I have one located on my fridge (the magnets on the back are very useful for this!) and the other is in the far end of my living room, close to my bedroom and bathroom.They’ve been really helpful to gauge when I need to crank the fans up or if I need to turn the humidifier on. I’m thinking about getting a couple more so I have one properly in my bedroom and maybe keep one in the bathroom.

We’ve had our share of “weather stations” where we try to get a read on the temp outside compared to inside. Either the components had issues communicating with each other, the weather forecast said it was going to rain ever of the year, or you couldn’t read the thing unless your eyes were perfectly in line with the display. We’ve had this one for about a week and thus far – it’s none of those problems. The display is large enough for my 69 year old eyes to see across the room and the forecast doesn’t say it’s raining even though I really wish it would rain here in Texas. There have been those that expressed issues with operation – we’ve had none of those. I highly recommend this product. IT WORKS.

It is smaller then I like but was cute enough to keep.

I like the size of this thermometer, but the bracket hung outside only allowed for the viewing to be on the edge of my window. My curtain almost hides it. I wish it had a longer bracket – maybe 3 more inches that would bring the thermometer further out.

Very nice, perfect size, Thanks.

I waited about a month before providing a review. The primary reason for the review is because of the “misinformation” I read from others that gave “negative comments”. The only negative thing I would say is, there is a bit of a lag in temperature-update to the display. I use it in my garage. If the garage doors are closed overnight, and it is e.g. 54F in the garage, and the doors are open to the outside temp of eg 32F, it takes a LONG TIME for the unit to update to the (now lower outdoor temp). BUT WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FOR THE PRICE YOU PAID FOR IT! Further, if room temp being monitored is inside a house, the temp refresh rate is a lot better/quicker, and the temp reading is accurate to 1-degree in relative testing to other Thermometers used to compare it to. I would definitely buy another one.

Ordered 2021 June 21st. Used the batteries that came with, when they died threw in some Amazon Basic Rechargeable’s. Just barely did the 2nd battery swap 2022 Nov 21st since it died last night. Though I only have the Indoor and 1 Outdoor therm, so I’m not manually or auto switching between multiple. Prob dies quicker if you are. It’s stood up to rain, snow, sleet, hail, 110 F days and some of last years -20 F days. Gets a 5 star overall but 4 star Accuracy cause the thermometer only reads down to -4 F but struggles to measure below +2 F even on colder nights.

First unit received was faulty. Called customer service and a kind and patient man took me step by step through set up. Didn’t work. He asked for my Amazon order number and said they would send a free replacement immediately. Couldn’t find order right away and said I would call back. Found number and called back and talked to delightful lady who arranged immediate shipment of new unit without any need to return defective item. Replacement works great,

Bought one and it was perfect showing indoor and outdoor temperature and rel. humidity. So bought another for bedroom and shared the 2 sensors: one on deck and other outside basement. It is a nice feature that the unit will display up to 3 sensors–rotating at 5 seconds per sensor. Since we only had 2 sensors, we seemed to frequently see a blank indicating that there could be a third sensor. Although it was only a max 5 sec wait, it seemed too ofter ;-). With their customer support assistance, I bought a third sensor, and now the outside temperature is always displayed from a sensor. Nice features: moon phase, clock update over radio, current estimated weather, barometric pressure, and estimated weather forecast. Although the date time shown is a little small, that is an acceptable compromise to see the other displayed items easily.

Bought these for use to determine room temperatures and balance the heating system in the house. So far they are impressive. When grouped together the temps displayed are within +/- one degree of each other and they also agree with a mercury thermometer used for a control. Display is in degrees Fahrenheit and tenths or Celsius. User choice. A small button on the back changes the temperature metric between the two. There are 4 ways to display the thermometer: (1) it lays down on a flat surface, (2) it has a swing out leg on the back for a stand (like a picture frame on a shelf), (3) it has a key hole space on the back so it can be hung from a screw or small nail, (4) it has a small magnet on the back that allows it to be attached to a refrigerator or other metal object. They are small but still big enough that they are easily seen from 6-8 feet away. The AAA batteries that came with them are an odd brand so I replaced those with batteries I have more confidence in not leaking and destroying the device.I’m happy with them. Have ordered another 3 so I can put one in each vehicle and have another available for use in the house.
