Review on Samshow Channels Stopwatch Adjustable Magnetic by Jill Bennett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

All three timers are visible all the time!

This Samshow timer has so many cool features; Best of all, all three timers are visible at the same time, *all the time*. With my previous 3 channel timer, each timer button had to be pressed to display the countdown for that particular timer, which was inconvenient at best and a real pain at worst. So when I discovered Samshow I immediately fell in love with their design. Any timer on Samshow will automatically return to the last entered time with a click or two of the same button; I find it very convenient to brew coffee in a French Press for 5 minutes every morning or make soft-boiled eggs for breakfast. I keep mine on a countertop and although the stand is a bit difficult to open at first, it is stable when used with a countertop stand. The numbers are clear and precise; I don't find the numbers difficult to read, and they don't appear to be "mixed up" with other numbers on the display, leading me to believe this timer is better suited for use with a stand than sticking. Fridge at eye level. Another feature I'm really happy with is the beep when the countdown reaches zero. There is a quieter setting for those with hearing problems and a louder setting for those with hearing difficulties. The instructions leave a lot to be desired, but it's not rocket science. Sit down and take the time to understand how to use the features. it's not hard once you figure it out. Also, in good quality, there's something you can feel almost the moment your fingers touch something, and this timer has that feel that indicates it's a well-made device. Time will tell if I'm right; So far my decision to buy this timer has turned out to be one of my top decisions this year. Highly recommended.
