Works wellOnly drawback is the ring is not loud.

Off By 10 SecondsThis heavy duty timer is off by about 10 seconds when it rings. That’s not too bad. I realize it’s a mechanical instrument. It sits quite solidly on my counter, because it has a rubber base. It can time up to 59 minutes and has 5 minutes increments. The ticking is not loud. The alarm sound is loud enough to be heard from next room only, if door is open. It says the “the further the knob is turned clockwise, the longer the alarm”. I didn’t really notice a difference. It is a little pricey, but I wanted one that is stocky and sits solidly on the counter. I am satisfied with this purchase.

Not Heavy Duty, Lightweight. Poor Quality for the priceI was so excited to get my timer today. My little plastic Good cook one broke last week after many years of use. I use a timer (mechanical, not digital) for a lot of things. First glance looks good, easy to read, but heavy duty it is NOT. Not heavy weight either although in my opinon the picture of it in amazon depicts it as heavy duty, heavyweight. It is not. Its lightweight. About same weight as my old lighweight plastic one. Okay so lighweight and in my opinion (not heavy duty as written in the item title and description in Amazon) I can live with that even though at this point $11.00 again in my opinion for a sub standard basic mechanical timer is way too high but I have it now so can live with it. So took it out of package. Read instructions. So tested it out. Set timer to 5 minutes. Waited waited waited over 10 minutes. IT’S STILL SET AT 5 MINUTES. . Ticking countdown does NOT work at ALL. So turned the dial to zero UPON WHICH IT RINGS. For my ears NOT A VERY LOUD RING AND FOR APPROX 3 SECS. For me and compared to my old plastic mechanical timer which worked for years and cost half the price, had much louder ringer and rung 3 times longer I would not recommend this timer at all. I am in the process of returning my defective item. I am not saying I recommend it or I do not recommend it. For me this may be a one time defective timer as the ticking countdown simply does NOT WORK AT ALL so its non usable period. As far as quality for price. Not good quality in my opinion for cost. Price way too high. But even if cost $5 instead of $11.00 + few cents it has to at very least function for the purpose it was created. It’s very nice looking, but that’s about it. I would have taken a replacement and hoped replacement ticking countdown worked, but dont want to take the chance and in addition the quality is not there for the price. I am returning defective item.

Works fine for the kitchen.I’ve always liked mechanical timers for baking, etc. This CDN timer is just right for me. The ring is loud enough and long enough that I can hear it even if I’m taking a snooze in the living room while the cookies are baking. For people who are only familiar with timers on their phones, you should realize that mechanical timers need their spring wound so they can work. For example, if you want to set the timer for 15 minutes, first crank the dial around the timer’s face and then go back to the 15-minute time you want it set for.
