Exceptionally good value
These appear to be functionally identical with the excellent, reliable and effective branded (Ansmann?) equivalent, but at a fraction of the price per unit.Only problem (also with branded version) is that the plastic sheath around the operation switch quickly splits, revealing the microswitch button, but it still works fine.

Great
Easy to use and the only timer I could find that would count down 5 and 10 minutes

Can set 5 or 10 minutes not limited to 15 minute steps like other timer plugs
I wanted a timer plug to turn my Foreman sandwich grill off after 5 minutes, as a couple of times recently I have been called away and left it running all day, open, eating power and being a fire hazard. Most timer plugs are designed to do 15, 30, 45, 60 etc minutes but this one does 5,10,15, etc. It is programmed by pressing a bubble button repeatedly - first press is an hour, each extra press reduces the time. You need nine presses to get to 5 mins. This is the tricky bit. After it has turned off, the next time you press the button once it goes straight to five minutes, but you must not press it twice or it will go right to an hour again. Where my cooker/appliance socket is sited I can't see the light display or scale on the top of this timer so had to test it in a floor level socket, check how it worked and then trust it. So far it has done exactly what I wanted a turned the grill off completely after 5 mins (for a toastie) - I think 10 mins would work for a frozen burger. It can handle higher power appliances too.

I use many timers and have tried them all but this is the best 5-50 minute timer, why?
It is so functional as the fascia is on the top so whether it is plugged in just above floor level or at a worktop height you can see immediately where you are with the timer setting, also the initiation button is on the top, so handy to view and initiate. If you interrupt the timer it will remember where it was in the setting. This particular deal was stunning for price and speedy delivery. It is very accurate with 5 minute steps up to 50 minutes and if that suits your needs it the best one on the market !
