Great little dual timer.
Works great and has readout and programs in hours and minutes instead of just minutes as other inexpensive timers do.You just need to be cognizant of which timmer is selected before pushing program buttons or you may change timer values you did not intend to do.

DON’T DECEIVE YOURSELF—HAVING THREE TIMERS ON A SINGLE DEVICE WILL SPOIL YOU!!!
Admittedly, I received this product with rather limited expectations thinking I would JUST have a timer that can do three individual timers capable of counting up and/or down at the same time. However, it became quite clear from the first use and each subsequent use thereafter that this device is really an AMAZING and OUTSTANDING product. It is a joy to use with easy to manipulate buttons enabling the controlling of all three individual timers with ease, all the while without worrying about accidentally messing up any previously set timers. They’ve managed to basically make it foolproof where you always know which timer you’re messing with and the positions of the buttons make it where you don’t accidentally switch to one already running while trying to set one of the other two timers. It has excellent button layout with fantastic visual indicators for when the timer has elapsed! I really get excited about this aspect of the timer because I have very Severe Migraines and accordingly have extremely sensitive eyesight along with extremely sensitive hearing. Unfortunately, most alarms on these type of timers are very irritating for me to listen to and I really need ones with good visual indicators and/or vibration that provide that fine balance of being strong enough to get my attention, yet not being overpowering to where it irritates my sensitive eyesight. Somehow, this timer manages to do just that and provide adequate but not too much visual stimulation – – especially in low light conditions and at night. For those of us who suffer from bad migraines, that’s the difference between something you can use and something that never gets used again. Surprisingly, this timer has become one of my main go-to‘s out of the MANY different timers I have…and as mentioned previously, once you get accustomed to having Three Timers in One Product, it’s rare to find one with just a Single Timer that satisfies. Keeping track of time won’t ever be the same!

Good timer
I've had this almost 2 weeks now, and I'm pretty happy with it. I had a kitchen timer app on my phone that i loved, but i got tired of depending on my phone for cooking and kitchen timing tasks since i'm the type that often sets my phone down in another room or recharges it when cooking, and i always had to stop what i was doing in the kitchen and go track down my phone when the timer alarm went off. Also, the app I used got real sketchy and annoying the last month or 2 and started showing video ads when i was trying to use it and started always giving obvious Russian-type malware/spyware clickbait ads ("Virus FULL!! Tap here to decrease!") I couldn't really find another timer app i liked as much anyway, and decided it was time to get a standalone kitchen timer device.Not a ton you can say about a relatively simple device like this, it either works well or it doesn't. For me at least, so far, it's been a great blessing to have this timer. It works well, has freed me up from having to unlock and fiddle with my phone to keep track of my cooking and kitchen tasks, and is always right where i need it, no more than a step or two away in the kitchen.I love that it can time 3 things at once and easily keeps a sort of memory which is great for things you do regularly like maybe cooking rice for example, because i do a lot of multi-tasking in the kitchen. It has a small hole on the back for maybe a lanyard or a piece of string in case you wanted to hang it, though i can't really imagine a situation where you'd want to hang it from a string, and it has a small flip out stand that seems sturdy enough (don't set it on the stove with the oven on though, it'll likely melt or malfunction), but i haven't used that much as it's more convenient for me to stick it to the fridge. The hole is offset though, so it won't work if you wanted to hang it from a nail or something, it case you were wondering... unless you wanted to tie a small loop of string to it, then hang the string from a nail. Aah.). It seems to work well, no real issue. The beep it gives is sharp and noticeable enough i have no issues hearing it, and it's not really an annoying sound for a timer alarm. The timer sound can be set to off/no sound, or a lower- or higher- volume setting; i just use the high setting. Some with hearing impairment issues may have trouble hearing it even with the high setting, but it also blinks with a red light for each timer when the timer goes off. It also starts counting up after going off, so if you get to it late, you'll at least know how long things went over the timer, which is kind of nice.I was concerned that some said the magnets were kind of weak because I specifically wanted a magnetic one that can stick to the fridge, but this one is sticking to my fridge just fine, though it can slide around a bit rather easily, but no issues so far with it falling off.I don't give it five stars because it has a couple of minor design flaws and shortcomings, the way i see it. The piece that shuts over the battery case detaches completely and the "closure" is flimsy, so it pops off real easy and i could see it potentially falling off and maybe accidentally getting kicked under the fridge or oven and being basically lost forever, though it seems like it'll probably still hold the batteries in just fine if you're careful enough with it. The batteries themselves are another thing; it takes 2 AAA batteries, which seem a bit inefficient and possibly more expensive in today's age, unless you have a rechargeable set. I'm not an engineer, but i imagine a design with a button type battery like a CR2032 would make more sense in today's age since they seem to last a long time and are lighter and thinner; on the other hand, AAAs are more widely available and more familiar for a lot of folks, so maybe AAA-powered makes sense for some.I wish it had maybe +5 and -5 keys, and/or + and - keys alone, since it's kind of a pain to have to push the button like 45 times for a 45:00 time, and if you accidentally push the button over and want to subtract, you have to just clear out that timer and start over. Not ideal if you're working on something time-sensitive, and maybe takes almost as many seconds to set the timer as it does for it to count down the time you spent setting the timer for that may seconds. You can see the LCD fading a bit at the bottom as you push the keys, which suggests to me that the assembly is a bit flimsy and physical pressure could maybe wear out the buttons and/or the LCD screen eventually. The fact that there's no power button or on/off switch is a glaring design flaw the way i see it. It's an LCD screen constantly on 24/7 with no way to turn it off unless you take those AAA batteries out when not in use. No wonder some people complain about the battery life! I haven't had it long enough yet, but i can totally see the possibility of having to change the batteries maybe as often as once every month or two. If they had at least added a feature where it automatically turns the screen off when no timers are running and you haven't touched it for maybe 5 or 10 minutes, I think that would be a great improvement and would likely greatly improve the battery life. I have a digital scale running on a CR2032 that does this, that cost maybe $25. It's been up working for me for almost 3 years now, and i only had to change the battery once. How much more expensive would it make the product to add that feature?With that all said, maybe it's a bit unfair to criticize those minor points, since the other timers in this price range don't seem to have those kinds of features either, at least not for a multi-timer, though i do feel we could be expecting a little better technology-wise these days for something that costs around $15 USD at the time of this writing. I imagine the people who have developed these things haven't had much motivation to redesign and update these things and the technology for these stand-alone digital timers hasn't changed much since the 1990s, because most people use phone timer apps for these kind of things nowadays. Maybe that'll change eventually, due to the issues i've seen with these phone apps, and the fact that app developers are increasingly wanting people to subscribe at high prices for ad-free apps even for simple things in recent times... my alarm-clock app wants $100 a year now! If you could spend $100 for an alarm clock, how many years would you want it to last before you had to replace it and spend another $100!?Since $15 doesn't seem to buy that much these days anyway though, and since it works well, has 3 timers, and I think it's upped my kitchen game already while freeing me just that much more from depending in my phone with highly questionable and ever-more invasive apps, I'll conclude that this was a pretty solid purchase. I'll update if I come across any issues in the next few months.

Works very well
Love the loud signal when the time is up. Needed one with 2 separate timers. Also has a flashing light for deaf people. Magnet keeps stored on my stove vent hood.

Problem
I have one of these timers. we have had for years and it works great. The new one I just bought can handle be heard when the alarm goes off. I would like to return it as this unit doesn't work well.

Easy install
My spigot arrived in one day, and we were back in operation within an hour.

Pretty good
It's got a nice and easy to read screen and 3 different ways to stand up straight, a magnet, a stand, and a string hole.Batteries were a little sketchy, I weighed them, it weighed 5 grams instead of the usual 11 grams, so I imagine those batteries might not last long, but I can easily replace those so not a big deal.My only real complaint is how mushy the buttons are. They don't have a click feeling and sometimes you think you press the button but it doesn't do anything which you will encounter if you have the thing on mute (it's kind of loud, good maybe for a kitchen but I'm using it for work). On silent, you get a blinking light. I kind of like that it's not too distracting.

Limited Alarms
Looks good and works well except for the sounds when a timer finishes. Often I get but one chirp, sometimes several. Then the sounds stop. One can easily miss a one chirp timer alert.
