Review on ⏲️ BALDR Kitchen Timer - 2.4 Inch Diameter, Sleek Black Finish by Josh Zepeda

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Lasted 2-1/4 years, not long enough otherwise great

I've tried half a dozen timers and was looking for one that (1) had a strong magnet so I could (2) use a can turn hand when it sticks to my fridge. Finally found it! It's accurate, it's easy to see how much time is left, the ringtone isn't too loud, not too quiet, etc. The only problem is that I rarely install it and it doesn't start ticking (so doesn't ring). but it's only if I don't move the dial far enough before putting it back in place - and almost every mechanical timer has this problem. Obviously someone designed this well and built it with better internals than other timers. This is the one to buy.————Updated: lasted 2-1/4 years (the other one I bought gave up earlier). The problem seems to be that the internal spring was worn out - the timekeeping started decreasing hourly by the hour until the hour setting chimed at 45 minutes (while short runs of 5 minutes were still accurate!). I think the timer should run longer. I tended to use it on average once a day or less.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Minor issues
