Great but FinickyThe other reviews that say the clock is finicky and shouldn’t be played with, are exactly true. You have to turn the dial all the way around the clock, and then set the duration you want. Well naturally it’s impossible to keep it visible to the kids but their hands off it, 100% of the time. So since they’ve been turning the dial on their own, it doesn’t really work anymore. It often just sits and doesn’t count down. Otherwise, my son loved it. He always used to scream and throw tantrums and be so upset when it was time to change activities and go do something, if it wasn’t something that interested him i.e. bath time, bed time, dinner time, etc..With the timer, where he could visually see how much time was left, changing activities really wasn’t an issue anymore. I’d be clear about the time left, I’d set the clock, I’d tell him when it ran out & the blue was all gone (we got the circle one with the blue timer), it was time to do ____ (insert activity here). He’d nod and say “okay,” and then sure enough when the timer went off, he’d agreeably and happily change activities. I’d even use the timer to show him how much time he had left to do something, if we were running behind. Instead of trying to explain to a 2 year old why we have 5 minutes to put on our shoes and get out the door for an appointment, I’d set the timer for 4 minutes and hype him up, saying “oh my goodness!! We have only this much time left, 4 minutes, to get our shoes on and race out the door!!” Worked like a charm nearly every time.In all: excellent for kids, even used it for myself to give me a visual on how much time I’d spent cleaning, I love the kick stand AND the magnet, but it’s finicky so don’t play with it like a toy, nor let the kids play with it like a toy.

Useful all day longThis timer works really well. It’s easy to see and hear without being too ugly or noisy. It helps my preschooler make transitions without fussing!

The BEST Time Timer!I have had several time timers in my kindergarten classroom. Some require you to turn past a certain point and then back to the time you want. Some are not magnetic. This one is perfect. It has super strong magnets on the back so it does not move. I can just walk up and adjust the time I want and it goes! So easy, so tidy, just perfect

It’s Definitely RedI initially got the blue timer because the weird purple color shown in the Amazon pics was so…. weird. Wanted to use it for a sauna timer, and this works great for that (longevity is yet to be seen, but so far so good). It has a pleasant beeping sound when the time is up, which can be made quiet or loud. No sound while it’s running.After the blue one came it was clear on the box the other option is red, not purple—and that made a ton more sense for a sauna. So I bought the red and yes, it’s definitely red, not purple. No idea why that color is shown, but see attached pic for what the real color is. The blue is as shown in the advertising, though.

Works great and can hear it pretty wellThe media could not be loaded.
I have ADHD. And I could not get anything done. So I use this to keep myself on track. I absolutely love it and it helps so much. I just set it for 30 minutes and clean and then wait till it goes off. That doesn’t seem like I had much to do and then I go do some thing else for a minute and set it for 30 minutes and then come back and do cleaning. I love it so much yes

Its great to use in the classroom! The bell is the perfect pitch to signal a transition.Love the magnet. The color. The soft pitch.

good size, works wellI got the blue color one because red seemed like it should be for emergency or something negative, and I’m trying to cultivate a positive of time so figured any little bit helps. The clock is pretty big and has a little stand so I just have it on my desk next to the monitor and it’s very visble and easy to set/reset (big analog/physical turning knob in the middle). Great timer. I do wish they would have a mode to just beep once instead of six times though. Six beeps? I mean, it’s not too bad and you do want to be alerted … but this is not good for night time – just a single subtle beep would have been awesome. Crossed my mind to take it apart, or make that a electronics project… hm, anyway as far as these things go this is a great timer.

Good in theoryGood in theory but mine arrived broken. Looking for a different one to buy.

So Handy in a ClassroomA teacher friend introduced me to this timer and I’ve enjoyed using it. There’s a very strong magnet to keep it solidly on a marker board, and the little indent underneath helps get a handhold to remove it when needed. The blue countdown is a nice visual for students to see how much time is left.

I have to recharge the batteries every day for it to workThis is super cute! However, the batteries run out of charge really fast in it.
