Review for Culinare Digital Timer:
We've had it for a few years now and its still working as well as it was when we first bought it.
The reason I have only awarded 4 stars is because it has no clock, magnet or stand, and for some people that seems to be an important feature.

Review for Culinare Digital Timer:
Its a timer
It works in hours and mins (no seconds) which I think is perfect, as who needs seconds?! If its less than 60 seconds I can't imagine anyone would go to the trouble of setting a timer.We've had it for a few years now and its still working as well as it was when we first bought it.

Review for A di Alessi -"Mr.Chin" Timer, Blue ASG78AZ:
PS
3 months later.... Mr.Chin has been dramatically improved by a carefully aimed squirt of WD40 up his rear end! This has loosened his mechanism and he rings faithfully every time now. 2 extra stars for Mr. Chin! (Four Stars).

Review for A di Alessi -"Mr.Chin" Timer, Blue ASG78AZ:
Form over Function at first - Bring out the WD40!!
Delightful and beautifully designed. Unfortunately, Mr. Chin does not always ring on demand. The timer winds down but no sound is heard. Definitely a shortcoming for a kitchen timer. I cannot recommend Mr. Chin, lovely as he is.PS

Review for A di Alessi"Kitchen Timer" - Blue:
Neat little gadget
After breaking two cheap timers in as many months - they just fell apart - it seems liked a good idea to pay more for quality. This one comes with a guarantee. The cream colour matches my kitchen and the design is pleasing.30

Review for Salter 331Ssxr Stainless Steel Electronic Timer And Clock Large Display19 Hour Count Up/Down:
Poor Quality even though it appears good at first
Got this timer a few weeks ago heard a lot of rattling inside as something in the arm snapped and bits of plastic got loose inside. That was bad enough but the other day I went to pick it up and the metal plating just came apart from the main body, considering I am always so careful with things this isnt the quality I would expect from Salter and at that price too!33

Review for Faringdon Chicken Novelty Timer:
The chicken is ticking but it doesn't 'ring' unless the time is set for well over 5 minutes and even then it over runs by about 1 minute. No good for soft boiled eggs!
Quite a loud tick which gets on your nerves after a while.
Not impressed.
