Review on Efficient Time Management Tool: TIME TIMER PLUS 60 Minute Desk Visual Timer - Silent Countdown Timer with Portable Handle for Classroom, Office, Homeschooling, Study (Charcoal) by Diana Kemmler

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It would be nice if their lifespan was longer. You know, more than a month.

We bought two three weeks apart. The first lasted two days longer than the Revain return period (May 12 - June 18). The second worked for about 9 days. FOR NORMAL USE ONLY. Nothing put down, nothing dropped etc. new batteries twice. No apparent reason why they stopped working. My kids have severe ADHD and this article really helps them understand how long it takes them to get things done or finished. It's really helpful in that regard. If it works, I'd give it 5 stars, definitely for the concept. But in terms of durability, it's a really obscene price to pay over $70 for timers and use it really easily for about a month, about 6 times a day and some days only about 2-3 times. They use an occupational therapy wall timer and it is very weak because the face is not covered. While covered, they are still very prone to problems. I thought they would be more durable and wearable with a closed bezel and grip style customization feature. But no. They died. I got the wall mount on June 10th before those portables died. I hope it holds up better.

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Minor issues
