Amazon.com Review
The great thing about this timer is not only that it's easy to set, but that the directions for use are printed right on the back in case you forget how. While the timer uses digital technology and an LED display in hours, minutes, and seconds, its unique setting wheel removes some of digital technology's frustration. Simply giving the polished metal wheel a turn or pushing either of the two buttons will activate the timer and readies it for setting. First, the hour space flashes; when turned clockwise, the wheel scrolls up through numbers one through nine, and easily let you backtrack to the number you want by turning the wheel counterclockwise. Next, the minutes place flashes and again the wheel turns quickly from one through 59; same with the seconds. Pushing the start button begins the countdown. Convenient features include pause, last-setting recall, and a pleasant yet firm beep. The oval base of the slanted timer measures 4 by 3-3/4 inches, while the durable plastic face measures 2-3/4 inches across. One D battery is required. KitchenAid covers the timer with a one-year warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri

 Digital Timer October 17, 2008

We were aprehensive about purchasing this timer after reading some of the reviews. We're glad we purchased it. The quality and ease of use is great. We highly recommend this timer.
For me it's GREAT! May 19, 2008

I read many of the negative reviews and almost didn't buy the timer - but I am so glad I did!
I use it almost exclusively to make tea in the morning and I use the same time setting day after day. It's so simple: now that I've set and used the timer once, I just touch the left button (STOP/reset) - this wakes up the blank screen. Then I hold the right button (START/pause) for about 3-5 seconds until my previously used time is shown. Then I touch START/pause again and the timing starts.
I can understand that this may not be the best timer for someone who needs to set several different times per use -but for someone like me who mainly uses it for the same amount of time every day, it's perfect: solid, attractive, the beep is plenty loud, and it's real easy to use.

I am online now shopping for a replacement for this timer. Much too hard to set. If you make a mistake you have to start all over and go through the whole cycle. Takes forever. If you don't hit the start button just right it does not run. Picking up the timer to move it or clean under it activates it and it takes a long time to turn off. What were they thinking?
Just plain annoying to use February 13, 2008

Works well, but takes way too long to set, and I end up using the old analog timer on top of my stove; just for simplicity. Very short review, but typed it up in less time than it would take for me to set this timer to count down for 5 minutes.
First one broke from miss use -- couldn't wait to get another December 29, 2007

We love this timer. It takes a little patience at first to get used to operating it, but once your catch on it is fantastic. I even took our old one outside to the grill for timing when grilling. It didn't break by falling, that happened many times and it kept on working. It broke when it was knocked into the dishwater -- deadly!! So do be careful to keep it away from the sink.
