    Which color Thermapen MK4 should I get?

    I already have the older version in red and a ChefAlarm in yellow. I can't decide if I should get red, black, orange, gray, blue, white or another color.

    Get the color that most stands out in whatever drawer you are stashing it in!

      I opted for lime green, not sure why just felt right to me.

          I have the pink and orange. I like the bright colors because it is easier to find them.

            I agree and wth DWCowles and Mosca. I went with yellow to easily locate.

            Bright green for me. The first one I got was brown and I could never find it.

          Don't get camo - you'll never find it.

          My recommendation is fer Pink! That's right...bright, NEON Pink!!!
          Based on my tool inventory, from 28 yrs at my job, ya' won't have to worry overmuch about it gettin stolen...
          Most males are afraid they might catch summat, from pink items..., so ya' should wear it out, long before it disappears from yer AO
          Hail, what do I know? I have reported to work, with both Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Bandaids, as well as Hello Kitty ones, on my head injuries, so prominently visible...

          I jus' tell 'em at work, them there's Mandaids...Takes a Man to wear 'em to work...

            When I held a day job (retired now) I often wore pink socks and pink shirts. I'm confident in my masculinity---LOL Now I wear ankle hi socks and Croc knock-offs as much as I can. The joys of retirement! Can't grasp those who worry they'll have nothing to do if they don't work.

            Surprisingly pink has the most votes with green so far coming in second.

            I will say I likely won't buy red so I don't get it confused with my older Thermapen and I'll probably avoid white/gray/black and pick a more easily spotted color.

            I haven't had to worry about my Thermapen walking off much, but getting a bright pink one would ensure it doesn't grow legs if I do take it somewhere.

                Ok, Mr. Bones - ready to hear th' 'Corn Daddy" story, assuming you've taken a break from that concrete work.

                Mr. Bones, at your convenience, brother. If you are tired we can certainly wait, and I will be on the lookout for it.

              Red. It doesn't show dirt and grime as easily, and it is easier to see in the kitchen.

                Neon Pink or Neon Orange vote here. I have both, and gifted one pink and one orange to each daughter. Easiest colors to find in the drawer ever.

                  I've just got one of those original red ones. I swear, I open the drawer and it just jumps into my hand! Sort of like dog and cat heads!

                Purple for sure!
