Rechargeable Kitchen Timer

I've been through a few kitchen timers. I have a simple one (from Aldi,or Lidl I think) which did the job well so far, my only problem was, that the time setting on the one I got was troublesome and sometimes when I was setting the cooking time, it would swap into clock mode. Which basically means that I had to switch into counter mode and re dial the time I wanted. Apart form that and from being quite small with a simple LCD screen. Long story short and a few 10's of quids later I bought this one and I am loving it so far:- Huge counting digits display, perfect for the elderly.- 3 modes of display: dim, bright and display off after 10 seconds.- Extremely easy to set up. Yo got separate button for hours, minutes and seconds, a clear button and a start/stop button. even 3 year olds can use this.- Very loud! I can hear it even when I am playing video games, or watching porn.- Has magnets to hold on metal objects (like your extractor), but can also stand on the counter.- Nice looking gadgetAnd the best of them all:- No Need for batteries, it is rechargeable through USB type C, same cable I use for my phone.- The charge lasts ages: the factory charge lasted 1 month with daily use. i will update on how much a full charge lasts.My only concern is, if it will stand the test of time and because of the many buttons and cooking some times the buttons can catch food stains on their edges. Of course you must clean it after use, but I am a bit concerned if this will affect the timers performance and longevity.Definitely happy with this timer, I will be buying this as a present to my friends as well.

Excellent timer , has hours where most only do 60 minutes, easey to use, very clear and easy to see , large numbers , will either stand , hang up or stick onto metal surface, no battery's to buy , only thing I don't know how long it will go B4 having to recharge it

Why did you choose this product over others?:Using this as a gym timer to keep me honest during rest periods, its great. If you read the manual you can work out how to keep the 90 seconds rests without setting it up each time (took me awhile!).I've dropped it once and the 'clear' button has broken a little, but it still works fine, so maybe could be a little more robust.

I purchased this clock to replace the bedroom clock that decided to give up on life, even with a new back-up battery.After a few days of use, I was going to give this new clock a 4 star rating. But after a few months of use, I've decided to give it 5 stars instead. It's not over bright for night time use. It is easy to set/adjust the settings. And it keeps very accurate time. What more can you ask for.If you want a no hassle, easy to read clock, then this maybe the one for you. It was for me.

I use this when exercising and it works great, battery lasts forever, and the display is nice and clear and can be read from a distance, the alarm is loud.

Bought to replace ancient kitchen timer. Wanted a rechargable one and came across this one. The display is what attracted me to it and I cannot say I was dissapointed. Really cool countdown (or up) display and can go up to nine hour fifty nine minutes. Alarm has two settings and the highest is good and loud. Feels nice and solid, time will tell how robust it is.

I actually love this timer and use it often. Battery lasts well even with the screen on. Wish their was an option to make alarm ring longer until you switched it off, but that's because I'm ADHD and need something to make me move.... But that's a me problem. I still use it all the time.It is robust, I do not understand the reviews that say is cheaply made and flimsy.... It is cheap, but it doesn't feel flimsy at all.... Well worth 12 quid.It free stands on a desk, of you can pull out it's stand for more stability, but I only use this if I'm playing it on my bed. I don't use it as a kitchen timer, but a general reminder for me to change task. It also has magnets for a fridge or a hanger for a hook.Whilst it's going, the screen will stay on as long as you don't accidentally have it on bright power saver option, but it's bright enough at lower brightness anyway and it's very clear. My other wish is that you could reset to your start time even if the timer hasn't finished, but it's not a deal breaker and it doesn't take long to put the time back in so it's not worth dropping a star.I've been using this for 2 years at this point with no issue. Looks and works like new

Sadly whilst I really like the timer and size of display, the vibrate mode stopped working within 2 months of use and defaults to one really load alarm beep when time is reached. Not discreet if you want a quiet environment. Another that I purchase just before this one stopped working within 1 minute of using it. Not a good sign. Refunds for both were accepted so Im happy about that. Will now look for another type of timer.
