I’m honestly so impressed with this little duck thermometer. My first thought? Why didn’t I buy this sooner? The overall quality is great it feels sturdy, responsive, and accurate, which is everything you want when you’re putting your baby in the tub.
And the rubber duck design is ADORABLE. My baby was obsessed with it, and I loved that it blended right into bath time.
I’ve used it both in the bathtub and just around the room, especially when checking the nursery temperature before…

Cute and practical
This review was collected as part of a promotion
This duck thermometer worked exactly as described. It’s perfect for testing the temperature of bathwater for babies or even pregnant women. I think you can also use it as a room thermometer as well, but I didn’t try that. I liked the duck design. It looked cute in the bathtub. It was easy to read, and it gave me peace of mind with my four month old.

Very Cute and Accurate!
This review was collected as part of a promotion
This duck is different from most bath thermometers in that it shows you the actual number temperature of the bath water. I have had other duck thermometers that change color to let you know if the water is too hot. My child tends to like their bath water on the cooler side and knowing the exact number temperature is the bath water makes bath time so much easier because I no longer have to guess that the water is to their liking. The thermometer is sturdy and dries well without molding. My child also likes to play with the duck in the bath and thinks it’s cute.

Duckie thermometer

It’s so simple to use once the bathtub is full, swirl the water to ensure the temperature is evenly distributed. Then turn on the thermostat duck by pressing the power button (located on the bottom of duck). Wait about 15 seconds for the duck to read the bathwater temperature.
This adorable thermometer is a cute and reliable way to make sure the bath water isn’t too hot for babies. It features a light indicator that flashes red and buzzes when the water is too hot (above 100.4°F), and flashes…

A toy and a helpful tool all in one
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I was really impressed with this little duck bath thermometer! The rubber duck design is absolutely adorable, it looks like a toy, but it’s useful and it’s accurate which is most important. My baby loves being in the water and is super impatient so I love having the duck thermometer that I can quickly glance at and make sure it’s a safe temp! The display is super easy to read at a glance, even when you’re juggling a wiggly baby, and it definitely gave me extra peace of mind knowing the water was…

Rubber Ducky thermometer
This review was collected as part of a promotion
The rubber duck thermometer is a must-have for new parents. Its primary strength lies in removing the uncertainty of using a hand or elbow to gauge temperature. A method I believe unreliable because we have less "sensitive" skin than babies. It functions well as both a safety tool and a engaging toy. The classic bright rubber duck shape immediately attracted my baby encouraging him focus try to grasp and making it fun. It floats well and the design has no sharp edges. It floats its submersible…

Great thermometer for peace of mind
This review was collected as part of a promotion
This little duck bathtub thermometer is such a lifesaver! It’s so cute, easy to use, and gives me peace of mind every time I run a bath for my babies. As a twin mama I’m busy all day long and even small things like the bath water temperature can get over looked and having this thermometer has truly been a lifesaver for myself and my babies. The reading is quick and accurate, and I love that it clearly tells me when the water is too hot or just right. Plus, my babies thinks it’s just another bath…

Adorable and Helpful!
This review was collected as part of a promotion
This little ducky is the perfect bath time toy! We mostly used it in the bath but you can also use it as a room thermometer, which is really neat. It is small enough for my 10 month old to hold and play with but big enough to easily be able to read the temperature display. I love the blinking light indicator because it makes it easy to tell if the water is a good temp without even looking at the digital screen. My baby loves the cute duck design and I love the peace of mind I get knowing my baby’s bathwater is the perfect temperature!

Small Story Duck Thermometer
This review was collected as part of a promotion
Out of the box, it a very cute rubber duck thermometer. I thought the design was adorable. It not just a thermometer to ensure the water temperature is just right before bathing my baby, but it can also be used as a bath toy, and it records the room temperature as well. I was using it the same day I had received the duck thermometer and put it to test for accuracy. It was very user friendly, easy to use, and easy to read. The temperature reading is really quick and accurate. When the water was…

Quackers for the win
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I really enjoy this little cutey. My 3 year old named this happy yellow duck thermometer “Quackers” and enjoys it so thoroughly that I often have a hard time finding the duck at bath time because he takes it around the house with him to play with. Every parent knows if the kid hates the tool you’re using, then you don’t get to use it, so my kids wanting this in their bath was the first win.
I was so glad to use this for my infant. She’s my third baby and I don’t know why I didn’t get…
