ThermoWorks Thermapen One

A America's Test Kitchen The ATK Reviews Team · reviewer · Jul 2026

The ThermoWorks Thermapen ONE is our favorite instant-read thermometer and has been for years. It’s fast, providing readings in one second (hence the name). It’s also accurate and easy to use. It sports all the handy extra features we like (a long folding probe, a simple backlit display that rotates depending on your orientation, and an automatic sleep mode) and none that we don’t.

What we love: The two most important features of an instant-read thermometer are its accuracy and its speed, and the Thermapen One excels with both. It took one second to produce an accurate reading in our water boiling test and two seconds in our freezing water test.

This ThermoWorks Thermapen works remarkably well. When you start moving the probe, it automatically turns on. It has motion sensing technology in it. When you put the probe in the meat, it automatically reads the temperature. You really don't have to wait long.
