The accuracy of the thermometer is great. I tested it in ice water and boiling water and it was accurate within 2 degrees in both cases.
My only disappointment is that the remote pager unit does not display the temperature. This is my own fault since on re-reading the description, it only says that the pager can also display a timer. Even there, the pager timer is independent of the one in the main unit, so you have to set both at the same time if you want to see how much time is left from the pager.
