I ordered this because I like the look of the brass holder.I read the reviews that complained about the numbers being too small, but that did not bother me.(My husband thought it was too small to read though, so he agrees with other reviewers.)When it arrived, it read the accurate temperature inside, so I hung it up outside.When it was outside, the temperature was not reading accurately. It was anywhere from 10 to 20 degrees above the actual temp., so I contacted Amazon and they sent me a replacement.In the meantime, we had some really cold days, and the thermometer seemed to start registering correctly.Who knows?When the second one arrived, I put it out next to the first.The second one registered anywhere from 5 to 10 degrees above the first one.So, I am not sure how accurate these thermometers are...Anyways, I ended up returning the second one as it seems the first ended up being closer to the actual temperature (at least I think!)
follow up- Sept 2009 - the thermometer is now stuck at 63 degrees... pretty sure it is not always 63 degrees here!

Product Description:
One of the most uniquely designed thermometers available; the Jeffersonian thermometer is inspired by Thomas Jefferson's notable prowess for mechanical invention. The carousel-style thermometer rests atop a thin brass stand and features gradated temperature readings and Arabic numerals perforated in brass with glimmering, easy-to-read steel background offering a sharp contrast. Convincingly antiqued solid brass blends right in with the traditional venue, while stainless steel inner workings resist rust for years of accurate temperature readings in both Celsius and Fahrenheit. Matching a full line of Jeffersonian devices made in the USA, the thermometer is guaranteed for life!
