Sand clogs like wet

Doesn't work after a few days Sand clogs like wet. There are no visible cracks in the glass. Comes with dehydration package! Could this be the problem?

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Many

Does not measure the minute

Very nice product but does not measure the minute. I tried both ways - it was 12 seconds faster in one version and 6 seconds faster in the other.

Pros
  • Well built
Cons
  • too dull

DO NOT BUY LESS THAN 50 SECONDS REAL TIME

You cannot claim a "minute" if you are more than 10 seconds late. I would understand 1 or 2 or even 4 or 5 but more than 10. Don't waste your time and money folks.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • I will be silent

NO ELECTRICITY! the best of thermometers and timers

I was so excited to get this hourglass and loved it for the first 30 or 45 days and suddenly like many reviews I have read the sand stops completely to flow and there is absolutely nothing you can do to move the sand. It's a disappointment but the size was perfect and I loved it while it lasted.

Pros
  • crossing my fingers
Cons
  • compatible

Good gift best in timers

The main thing is that it is very small. I didn't want it to be big but I was still surprised at how tiny it was. The quality seems to be ok. This was a gift for someone who collects hourglasses so the small size was preferred, but it's important to check the measurements if you're expecting something larger than the palm of your hand.

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • Older model

NOT WORTH A PENNY OR YOUR TIME!

I bought 2 of these at the same time. What a waste of time and money. One of those "1 minute" timers was only 55 seconds, which isn't very accurate for my needs. The other was ONLY 45 SECONDS. What a joke. If you're sending two or more emails to the same person, you might feel like you're trying to make them at least a little similar in performance. You can see different flow rates in less than 5 seconds after spinning. NOT WORTH A PENNY OR YOUR TIME!

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • So-so

Not worth your money (or even your time).

The product has sharp edges and metal filings that will scratch your table (and your hands) or whatever you put on it. The cut outs were clearly done hastily and give this piece a very cheap look and feel rather than the finesse and artistic craftsmanship of old naval brass instruments. There's also the occasional side slit, which seems like a design attempt, but then again, they just look cheap and lazy. They do not belong to or relate to the intended maritime theme. Sand of a strange purple…

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Looks great, poorly made

I really liked this little timer when I first opened the box and was pleased to find that it worked within 3 seconds which is impressive for an hourglass. However, when it was with me for about a week, the sand suddenly started to stick and stick together as if wet. Confused, I unscrewed the base to see if the glass was cracked and found that although the glass was intact, it was NEVER SEALED. The small hole in the jar that allows the maker to add and adjust sand has been covered with a solid…

Pros
  • Understandable even for the old man
Cons
  • A few minor things
