For my purposes, really great!

My son is obsessed with time and numbers. He also 4.5 so chores and limitations are a fight. I decided to try these plastic hour glasses and they really took off in my home. We have a 3 minute brush teeth, a 10 minutes play before bed, a 30 minutes poop and an 1 hr video game one. They work so well I had to buy some for my mothers house we visit too. He gets to even pick his colors which is nice. My only complaint and reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is I occasionally have had the sand stop…

Pros
  • I love them. My kid hates them. When these come out he knows he F’d up.
Cons
  • May not be accurate in timing due to manufacturing defects

Big, bright, and sturdy sand timers

This set of 5-minute and 15-minute timers is great. The first thing I noticed when I opened the box is how much bigger they were than I was expecting. This is a good thing because they are very sturdy so I'm not worried about them accidentally getting knocked over (like I am with my smaller sand timers). Most of the tea I drink gets steeped for 5 minutes, so I use the blue one mainly for that. The green one gets used for things like helping my 4-year-old understand how long she needs to focus…

Pros
  • STURDY SAND HOURGLASS TIMERS: Made of transparent Acrylic + Plastic + Glass Tube + Sand, Uneasy to break. Using these sand timers can be much more pleasant and less distracting than looking at your phone to time, help you stay focused and productive for longer.
Cons
  • May not be compatible with all age groups or skill levels

Love these sand timers

I love these sand timers. They can be used for fun/homework/and also time outs.It gives my kids something to look at while they are doing their timed activities. These are well-made and durable even for a 2 year old.

Pros
  • I love using this with my toddler
Cons
  • May be prone to mold or mildew buildup

It's durable and bright

It's large enough and bright enough for me to place it on a shelf and the class can all see the sand sifting through. It can also be placed at a table or desk to help individuals stay on task.

Pros
  • I bought these for my cool down corner. Work great! I tested the time and they are accurate!
Cons
  • May not be compatible with all surfaces or materials

Cons
  • May require frequent replacement or repairs

Great timers in my review

I got these for my grandson because the kids are timed in school when doing the multiplications.he loves them!. May be difficult to read or see from a distance!

Pros
  • Great for classroom activities! Very accurate and durable!
Cons
  • May be difficult to read or see from a distance

Good price, big and does what they say

I was wary because a set of two of these were a bit cheaper than just one of the units from other vendors, they arrived quickly and seem well made. They are much bigger than the lousy sand timers included with board games. These are just over 6" tall and 3" wide. The colors are nice and they meet their accuracy goals (they are sand timers not precision stop watches) Most of these products claim + or - 10% accuracy. My 3 minute unit clocks i at 3:06 pretty good! and the 10 minute unit finishes…

Pros
  • Timers
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in high-stress environments

Best thing I could buy for virtual schooling!

Love these timers! Best purchase because you get two for the price of one. I searched for awhile and these were the best buy. I bought all four timers - 3 min, 5 min, 10 min and 15 min. My 5 year old and her cousin who is 8 LOVE to try to beat the timer while doing their projects. Instead of complaining they don't want to work on math, they ask to turn the timer over again! lol

Pros
  • I use them in my first grade class and they are super sturdy!
Cons
  • May require frequent cleaning or maintenance

Good value for the quality

The timers are very large so make a great visual way to track time. The plastic is thick and durable and both are labeled accurately.

Pros
  • I use them to time my exercises.They are accurate and fun to watch.
Cons
  • No option to customize or change the sand color

Very large size best in my review

These were a lot larger than I expected. The count down is accurate. Great for my son to have a visual on how much screen time he has left.

Pros
  • Nice and colorful! Students love the larger size.
Cons
  • May not be compatible with all games or activities

Love these!: my feedback

Love these sand timers! I initially purchased these because our pediatrician recommended using an hour glass sand timer (from one of our game boxes) to help our child know how long they had to sit at the dinner table. Now I have used them for much for than that! They are great visuals for time. I love the large size which makes it fun and easy to see from across the room and hard to loose. I have also used these to keep track of my personal reading time. I also like that angled sides that allow

Pros
  • Great!
Cons
  • Small size may make it difficult to handle or manipulate

It leans :( on my review.

It’s nice and large which we loved. However, the quality control must be slightly lacking, they aren’t level. It leans to one side leaving some sand left behind which is why I took off a mark for accuracy. A little disappointed about that but oh well. We will keep it for our purpose.

Pros
  • Great for timming family game night or for poaching an egg
Cons
  • May not be adjustable in terms of sand flow or speed

Great quality: my feedback

I purchased 2 sets for my two ADHD kids, I also use these in counseling. Works great for practicing mindfulness, for a brain break, focus, calming anxiety, assisting in sleeplessness when watching the sand. Highly recommend for students, for timeouts whether for work or discipline, for cooking etc.

Pros
  • Nothing and it is for my granddaughter
Cons
  • Not water-resistant or waterproof

Good! Would buy again!

Good timers! Price was good and pretty sturdy. I have 6 boys ages 3 to 10 and so far they have held up! My boys love to beat the timers! Would buy again!

Pros
  • Got for my classroom and for my grand children
Cons
  • May not be suitable for people with allergies or sensitivities

Looks very nice.: my feedback

When the sand is getting low it sticks to the side of the hourglass. You must tap it to get it all to go through. I was going to return them because it’s a pain but I did not. I would just say it’s a defective design.

Pros
  • Kitchen Utensils & Gadgets
Cons
  • May not be affordable for all budgets

Fantastic hour glasses!

These were definitely bigger than I expected and I love it! I’m a therapist and these are perfect to help my clients visualize how much time they have left in session.

Pros
  • They are perfect!
Cons
  • May not be customizable in terms of time duration

They crack easily. in my review

They draw the my preschool age grandchildren’s interest about the concept of time and taking turns. Just be careful. Preschoolers will drop things and that when the problem begins. So far, clear packing tape is holding it together.

Pros
  • Works great, I use the 3 min one for teeth brushing time and the other for punishment time.
Cons
  • May not be visually appealing or decorative in design
