Thermopro TM01 Kitchen Timers: Count Up/Countdown Digital Timer with Touch Backlit - Perfect for Cooking, Kids & Classroom Study Review

This is not only a clock but also a timer. You can start from 0 and use it as a countdown timer, or you can set the time and let it count down. The volume can really crank up. My wife was just walking around the house asking me what those "beepers" were. Once it hits zero on the countdown, it will continue to tell you how far you've gone from "0". The display lights up when you touch a "bulb" on the front, and there's a fold-out panel on the back that lets you stand up like a picture frame…

I ordered it and received it the next day. It's easy to set up and use, and it even has hours when you're not using the timer. Only downside: oh my god the alarm clock is LOUD. I mean incredibly loud. Stupid loud. It has 3 settings and even the lowest level sounds like a smoke alarm going off right over your head. I literally put a piece of gorilla tape on the alarm port to darken it a bit. It's still very loud, but I can deal with it. I can't imagine anyone needing a 2nd or 3rd tier unless you

It has three volume levels, in a typical home use the lowest volume. If you use it

My wife and I have bought over 20 different timers over the past 25 years. She used them to time special reading and math tests. I need them for UV treatment for psoriasis on hands and feet, cooking, reminders and alarms. Models ranged from expensive WESTBEND ($30+) to unnamed Chinese-made models ($5). The best were the old ones – the old 1980s models. However, recent changes and cheap components made it a poor buy. Therm Pro is the successor to the king. At the moment he is the best…

The timer is well built and well designed in many ways, but in one way I hate it. It's over the top, uncomfortably loud. Other reviewers have commented on this. The timer has an adjustable volume, off-low-mid-high, so you might think that would solve the problem, but it doesn't, as even the low setting is uncomfortably loud. A high setting will deafen your ears when you are nearby. A kitchen timer doesn't have to be as loud as a fire alarm because this timer will sound. It's a harsh, annoying…
