I use the Digital unit that's sold here.  Reads at the tip and updates plenty fast.  It's an essential tool and I like mine.

x2 on that for the money it's the best way to go if you nuke or cook your plastic .If you use presto pots or something there are more expensive ways to go . Like thermo couples and digital heat control units .

I use one similar to the one they sell here.  Work great, can't go wrong with it.

The unit that is sound in the store is the one I've been recommending for years.

It's fast, easy to calibrate (if necessary) and is very accurate. You should use a digital probe thermometer to measure the temperature of liquids vs. a IR thermometer which is used to measure the surface temperature of solids.
