Digital Countdown Kitchen Timer - AIMILAR Count Up Down Magnetic Timer Clock with Loud Alarm Fast Setting for Cooking Baking Gym Students

I use this for exercises following back surgery. I needed preset buttons for quick time changes, and also because I have arthritic fingers. This one works great for me. Also, the large start/stop button is great as I can find and use it without having to look at the buttons. The repeat feature is a big help too, as I can stop the timer by pushing the large button, then just once again for the next rep. Without ever looking at the timer. As others have said there are some glitches: 1. There is no power button so it stays on and the batteries are dead in 2 days. Fixed that by popping back off and removing one battery each time I’m done. Pop back in when ready. No more problems with power. 2. The buttons don’t always work when pushed. Another easy fix. If I hear the beep it worked. If not I push it again. Don’t need to visually check it. I do not use the clock or other features so I can’t speak to that but for my purposes it is perfect! So much easier than cell phone timers.

This is so easy to use. I use it in the kitchen for a timer and a clock because it’s easy to see from across the room and when the timer goes off, it’s loud and I hear it anywhere in the house. Plus it counts backwards so you know how long it’s been since the timer went off. It’s great for timed drills when I exercise, and as a stop watch when i dye my hair. I now have 3 around the house!

Both me and my husband love this timer. It is a bit large - so look at the measurements. The alarm sound if good, but the magnet complaints are true. This takes a regular battery (either AA or AAA). Many timers need a circle battery, which costs more... I bought 2 timers. One has strong magnets, but does not have the many button options (I have to press 2 simultaneously to clear, etc.). This one stays on the refrigerator if you press the buttons with care, if not, it usually shifts and slides down the refrigerator (I have space between my stove & refrigerator). I guess it depends on your set up. I also have stuff on my refrigerator with strong magnets that can support this timer. This does not have an hour setting, but you know that going in. You can hit the 10 minute button up to 10 times for 99 minutes of time set.

Not good for anything over 99 minutes & 50 seconds (1.5 hours). My other timer has hours, minutes and seconds. Ok for most tasks. SUPER loud alarm, beeps loud for a while then gets even more persistent before shutting off, hard to miss! I wish there was an hour setting but I guess that's a fair trade off for the loud alarm.

I use timers almost everyday for yoga and other physical exercises. I've been using various digital egg timers for almost 2 decades, but unfortunately I couldn't find a suitable egg timer replacement this time. Sometimes I want to do exercises for increments of less than a minute, sometimes for 1 minute or more. I did my research and am so glad I found this. You can mix and match increments of 10 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, and 10 minutes. Perfect! Easy to set, easy to restart, and easy to re-set. A few pretty minor quibbles--the start button should IMO be the SAME as the pause button but it's not. Also the egg timer had one advantage that you could easily start or stop it with your foot from above since the start/stop/pause button was on top of it. This timer makes up for that though since it is even easier to set the timer on. The beep is very loud-- I usually put a small piece of tape over the small speaker hole to make it quieter. Lastly the magnets on the back work great to attach it to most household metals, and the fold-out leg does a good job of standing it upright on level surfaces.

This timer's display is a nice size so itis easy to read; as are its press buttons. Areas needing improvement include larger magnates for placing on metal surfaces... they are to weak to keep the timer from sliding downward. Most importantly, the timer needs a 1 second increment button; Perhaps it could replace the ten minute button.

We love, love, love this timer. I read the product reviews and knew that the alarm would be very loud, as suggested we placed tape over the speaker and it did lessen the volume, it is still loud. Another issue I read was that the timer would not attach to the oven. I had that problem as well, when I put it on the oven, it slid down because the width of the metal on the oven was barely big enough for the timer. When I put the timer on my refrigerator it stuck very well and there is no sliding down issue. A feature that we love are the 10, 5, and 1 minute quick buttons. You can push the 10 minute then the 5 minute and the 1 minute and get 16 minutes instead of pushing the 1 minute timer 16 times. Another bonus is that the batteries are AAA, easy to replace. I usually do not write such a long review, however this is a great buy.

Look...the timer itself works perfectly fine and it's easy to read. However, there is NO power button. You can't turn it off at all, so the batteries (and life of the timer itself) will not last long. Another thing...I bought this as a teacher to put on my dry erase board, but the little magnets on the back aren't even strong enough to keep it up. It slides all the way down any surface you stick it to. What use are the magnets if they don't even work??? The video I posted is WITHOUT the batteries inside!
