I've used both analog and digital brands. Both will need calibrating to check their accuracy and in my experience, both can quit working after a time. AcuRite digital thermometer/hygrometer is a great price. Mine was reading 10% off and the display is a bit messed up, but it's still usable a year later. With analog ones I like the All Living Things brand best simply because they can actually be adjusted and seem to last a little longer than other analog ones that I've tried.

These are the ones I'm talking about.
