LIORQUE Digital Kitchen Timer Magnetic Countdown with Loud Alarm and Large LCD Display, Digital Timer Clock 99 Hour for Cooking & Kids & Teachers

So good I’m actually considering buying another one (or two). I’ve included a picture vs my old one. As someone with ADHD, I have a non-existent sense of time and rely on clocks and timers to function normally. Plus I love cooking so I’m a little obsessed with good timers.What I love-Clear display-Hours mins and seconds buttons, with a 5 minute increment button in addition to 1 min. A small thing but makes it way easier to use when setting stuff like 45 minutes.-Volume switch with high, low, and no sound!-Custom button for saving a set time, great for your morning boiled egg, or lunch break timer.-The timer can be set to count either down obviously, but also up like a stopwatch and can even display the time as a clock (even while a timer/stopwatch runs, you alternate between the two by press and holding the big button)-The timer counts up once it finishes counting down so you can see how long you’ve gone over e.g. when cooking something good to know much longer it’s been in the oven since the timer ended.What could be better-Although I love the accuracy of having a 1 second button, I would love a 5 seconds button in addition to what we already have. I can live with hours being only one at a time, the “5 min” button is extremely useful. Adding seconds even by press and holding is a bit annoying. Maybe even a 10 seconds button would be ideal (rather than 5) as I’m not sure it needs to be quite that granular.-My old timer makes a short beep when 10 minutes remain and again at 5 minutes before a full alarm obviously at zero. The inclusion of this is super handy for all sorts but especially when cooking as a warning to get ready to attend to something, I kind of miss it on my new timer.-The magnet could be stronger, but this is a bit of a nitpick as for most places you’d put it it’s absolutely fine.-A killer feature for me would be to have it able to vibrate.… which I’m sure would suck up battery but I’d pay more money for a USB-rechargeable one with a vibrate feature, I’d probably use it as an alarm clock which I already do sometimes in its existing form.

Great little timer. I use it for exercise in the gym. Quick and easy to set up for various times, soft or loud alarm, very useful for the home/gym or kitchen.

Good clear display, easy to use. You can't switch it off display is on all the time, I don't know how long the batteries will last. The alarm sound is nice and clear and I like the little pip with one minute to go. Better than cheaper ones I have bought.

I brought this because our new oven is way too quiet to hear and I've not yet found how to turn the beep up. I had brought a similar priced item from a well known supermarket's middle aisle that was not a patch on this excellent timer. It's clearly been designed by somebody that actually uses these things on a regular bases.The display is large and clearThe buttons are solid, round and recessed for finger tips except the start / stop which is larger and a different colour.Setting a time is easy with the different increment buttons (no silly plus / minus) and you can quickly reset.It sticks to a fridge, cooker front, extract fan (if metal) or will stand on a counter.The volume on high is loud enough for my bad hearing to hear from a different room or over the top of other kitchen noises.It feels really well made and it doesn't fall off if you close the fridge door a little too hard.All in all an absolute gem of a device, that allows you to quickly and easily set a countdown for boiled eggs to turning the roast potatoes this Christmas. It would be perfect for many, many other uses and despite having it only a few days, is in regular use.It easily takes five stars but I would make two suggestions:1. Because of the thickness of the magnet, the bottom half the the device sits slightly off the surface. When you press the lower buttons, it rocks. I fixed this with a few layers of electrical tape just covering the battery compartment cover so the whole device sits flush with the fridge. It could probably do with a magnet on the lower half as well.2. The second suggestion would be to offer it with a lit screen. It's large and clear in the light, but in the darker evenings, you have to have the kitchen light on to see it unlike the cooker timer.

Clear screen display. Very accurate and loud alarm

Easy to use.

There is much to like about this timer. Here are the things I like:- the separate 5s, 1m, 5m, 1h making dialling in the time quick and easy- the bold display - can be seen from all corners of the kitchen- the one minute warning beep - gets your attention if you have been otherwise engaged (so its not a mad panic when the final bleeps go off).- the start/stop button on the right - I can't get used to ones where it is on the left (being right-handed).- big bold buttons - not fiddly thin ones there for design rather than practicality- three volume levels- good strong magnet, and good tabletop stand- takes a couple of AAA batteries - not some wierd hard-to-find battery.I have had a few timers now (including the famous Salter brand ones) and this is my favourite. The others didn't last long in the kitchen environment, so it remains to be seen if durability is another like for me..

Was very pleased with this, but unfortunately I dropped it and broke the screen. Am only giving it 3 stars as when I came to re-purchase I found that the price has increased by £4.50 in three months!!
