Kitchen Timer for Cooking, 10 RGB Color Changing Digital Magnetic Timer, Countdown/Up, Rechargeabilit, 3 Brightness Display, 3 Volume Levels and Vibration Mode, for Classroom, Home, Study, Fitness

This digital timer is a 5/5 for me! Though smaller than expected (5 inches), its compact size is perfect for classroom use. The color switch option, including a fun rainbow mode, excites my elementary students. It offers both countdown and stopwatch functions, and setting it up takes seconds. I love the three volume settings (vibration, regular, and loud), and its magnetic backing makes it easy to attach to my whiteboard or door. You can also hang it with the foldable hook or use the built-in stand. The power-saving mode dims the display to conserve energy, and I charge it every few days with the included cable. Overall, this timer is reliable, fun, and super practical! Highly recommend!

This digital timer appears to do everything you could possibly need in a timer. It is configured in a flat rectangle with three ways to set it up. It has a pull-out stand that allows you to stand it on the counter. It has a small plastic loop on the top back that could be used to hang it. Finally, it has a pattern of strong magnets that allow you to stick it up onto a metal surface. Mine now is attached to the door of my over-the-range microwave, handy for oven, stove top, or microwave cooking. On one end it has the power-related functions, controlled with a slide button. You press the on/off button to power it up or down, while the slide above this controls the brightness of the display. The power saving setting dims the face in order to prolong the battery's life. This end also has a USB-C port used to charge the unit. It does come with a short charging cord. One the other end is a slide control for its sound options. This time has the option for the sound to be loud or soft. It also has an option to mute the sound and have the lights flash, rather than an audible alarm. The soft setting is still loud enough to hear if you are in the same room, but I would recommend the louder setting if you leave the room or have other noise with which to contend. I haven't tried the muted with flashing lights setting yet, so I can't speak to that. The display itself has red LED digits on a black face, very easy to read. This display is divided into three section: hours, minutes, and seconds. It also has an arrow icon to indicate whether it is counting down or up. When I used it to time food cooking in the oven, it counted down the amount of time for which I set it. Then, without pausing, it began to count up. While I didn't need this feature at the time, it seems to me that this might be useful to indicate how long the food has cooked beyond the timer setting. It would also be useful in situations where you need to turn food over or season it, before cooking it for a second amount of time. On top are the buttons used to set the timer to count down. There are buttons for hours, minutes, and seconds, as well as a button to clear the time setting. On the far right is the start/stop button. These buttons are raised so that I can easily feel them on top of the timer. Where I have it placed, on the top of my microwave's control panel, I cannot see the buttons, but I can still determine which is which. If you want the time to count down, you simply set the appropriate time, then press the ST/SP button. You can also have it count up from zero by simply pressing the ST/SP button without setting any time. As I said, this time has everything I could possibly want. It counts up or down. The display, even on the power saving setting, is plenty bright enough. The alarm is loud if you want it to be, or you can have it flash lights if you don't want to wake the children. The display even has an icon that indicates when the battery is running down and needs to be charged. Personally, I can't think of anything lacking in the design of this time. I highly recommend it.

I use this as an ADHD focus timer for everything- works well, love that its rechargeable, and the colourful display brings me a little pop of joy. Durable too - I drop it regularly 😂 and its still kicking. Surprisingly useful feature for me - it keeps counting after the alarm goes off so I know how long past my deadline I am - super useful if time blindness is a challenge for your adhd or focus too.

This thing works, the colors are really cool but the display shuts off as a power saving feature. You have to adjust the display button to the lowest or mid brightness otherwise it will shut the display off as the clock keeps ticking. In power save mode you have to tap any button to get the display up again. I love how colorful this thing is.

I got this because my microwave timer went out. This timer has fabulous features, better than the one that used to actually work on my microwave. It has an alarm that can be turned to loud, medium, or just vibrating. Also, the light can be adjusted to bright, medium, or not on except at the beginning and ending of the time you’ve set. You can hang the timer using the built-in magnets (but the front of my microwave is plastic), by the hook on the back, or by opening the built-in stand. The feature I love the best is that after it counts down the time that you’ve set, it will start counting up to show you how much time has passed since the alarm went off. That will greatly help to adjust any subsequent re-warming if you were not nearby when the alarm went off (of course, if you set the alarm on “loud” you’ll definitely hear it because it’s fire-alarm loud). The feature I don’t like is how close the intervals on the side buttons are to each other - that makes it a little sensitive when you’re sliding the button to the position you want. For example, the “bright” and “medium” light feature are so close that it’s difficult to readily see if you’ve set it where you intended. I also wish it had an electric plug as well as USB charger because it would be nice to not have to re-charge after you’ve cooked something when the timer was on for a long while. (but I knew it didn’t have a plug when I ordered so I can’t complain). Other than the 2 things I mentioned, this is a fine timer that works as described and is attractive.
