Beautiful and Well Made; Hard to Read at a Distance

Posted by Entropy on Mar 21st 2015

The 28 inch Frog Patio Thermometer is very well made with a sturdy base of enameled steel. The rain forest frogs decorating the thermometer are accurately rendered. This is one of the few thermometers I could find in which the overall length also was reflected in the length of the liquid tube. This length gives greater resolution at distance. Unfortunately, the the black on white numbers of the temperature scale are difficult to read at a distance, part of the purpose of having an over-sized analogue outdoor thermometer. With practice, it becomes easier to read this beautiful instrument.
