This is a simple but rather impressive looking kitchen timer.
In the box, you receive the timer itself, a USB charging cable and a well written and easy to read user guide. Build quality all seems fine and the device has a premium feel not often found in budget devices such as this one.
The LED display takes up all the front panel with the controls in large, well marked and easy to use buttons around the side. On one side is a slider for the power and screen display. There are three screen modes - off, standard brightness, high brightness and power saving (10 second auto off). On the other side is a slider for the alert options - standard audio, loud audio, flashing screen and vibration. Around the top are standard buttons to program the timer along with a timer reset and start/pause buttons.
The 7.2 x 11 x 2 150g cm unit contains a 1000mAh lithium which is charged through the USB-C port on the side with a status LED confirming charging. The LED screen also has a battery status icon to alert you when charging is needed. The timer will still function when charging.
Like all kitchen timers, this one can count up and down and give audio and visual alarms after a preset period. The blue LED display is large, vibrant and easy to see even in a bright and well lit kitchen. At first, I was surprised that the unit did not also function as a clock, but on balance, I think that keeping things simple is the best way and that it would be a mistake to complicate things by offering non timer related options.
Operating it is as simple as you might expect. When the front panel display is set to zero, pressing the start/stop buttons begins the timer counting upward. To count down, press the rest button to zero the display and then use the hour, minute and second buttons to input the period you want to a maximum of 9 hours, 59 minutes 59 seconds. Long press unit buttons to fast scroll the time. The side buttons are used to select the display and alert options you require. The device is easy to use with a minimal learning curve and works perfectly every time.
Currently discounted to £11.69 on Amazon, if you need an easy to use, easy to see timer that looks a cut above the rest, then this would be a great buy.
