Amazon.com Review
Great for the kitchen, workout room, or home shop, this small digital clock/timer is useful in counting down cooking time, timing circuit training exercises, or tracking paint or wood glue drying time. No bigger than the palm of a hand, the timer is magnetized to stick to a refrigerator or stovetop or, alternatively, hangs via a clip or mounts onto a table with its wire stand. The large 0.7-inch LCD screen is easy to read and displays the current time in hours and minutes. When set for timing, the instrument displays in minutes and seconds and times up to 99 minutes and 59 seconds, which is ideal for monitoring cook times on dishes that require slow cooking, such as braised meats. The timer counts either up or down and emits a beeping noise when time has elapsed, which is easily turned off by pressing the Start/Stop button. The timer runs on a single AAA battery (included), and Taylor ensures complete accuracy in its readings through a one-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Timer used in school
Great timer for all sorts of purposes. I am using this timer to obtain my students' reading rate as they read orally. It is easy to teach them the formula and how to use the timer to get there. I purchased this particular timer as it counts both up and down and it was at a decent price.

Not good quality, get what you pay for I guess
This is the first timer I have ever purchased that has died on its own and only after a few months. (I have a habit of dropping them in the pasta water) This one hasn't been dropped and it just isn't working right. When you set the timer and think its on (it beeps) you walk away and come back and it never started to count down. Anyway I'm looking for a new one now and I wouldn't recommend this one. It worked okay in the beginning but long term I'd buy something else.

Timers for reading class
The timers work fine (it's been 3 months). I bought 8 for my reading class for timed readings. The beep is not too loud, at least it doesn't seem to distract the students. I like how it counts up and down, which most timers don't have. It's also great that it counts up to 99 minutes. The Pyrex timers only count up to 20 minutes. Definitely would recommend it.
