sunrise alarm clock

Works as advertised, easy to use. I use it as a cheap sunrise alarm clock. It's large and will occupy two slots on a surge protector/power strip.

Pros
  • The timers work perfect. They are easy to set without any pins. I would recommend to a friend
Cons
  • The mechanical timer may be prone to failure or malfunction

Does the job good for me

These timers work for the purpose they are intended for. My only complaint is there is a faint audible ticking sound as they progress through the day. In a quiet room it becomes annoying but otherwise does the job.

Pros
  • Whle the cat's away the lights will play.
Cons
  • The 2-pack may be unnecessary for some users

Perfect for items that are difficult sideways.

This design is bigger, but good for items that need orientation. Nightlight plugs might direct the bulb towards the wall. This design makes sure that isn't a problem. I bought two over four years ago; one has broken, but the other still going strong.

Pros
  • Good product. Works fine
Cons
  • It makes an obnoxious winding noise

Useless. Blocks second outlet position

Just received this timer. It is so bulky on the back, if you are using a double receptacle to use it, it covers the second receptacle so nothing else can be plugged in. Wanted to use this timer for a lamp and the other receptacle for a security camera. Camera could not be plugged in because this timer covered the second position. Ridiculous design with the male portion of the timer centered about the middle of the timer covering the entire face plate. Buy something else if you want to use a…

Pros
  • Simple, but does exactly what it should!
Cons
  • May not be safe to use in damp or wet environments

Very Easy & Precise

Was looking for timers to power cycle internet cameras. Much easier to set than digital timers. They also allow a shorter time off than most.Although rather large, they can be positioned to not block the other outlet.

Pros
  • Christmas lights
Cons
  • Can be difficult to program in hard-to-reach areas

Good value, but the timing drifts

I have had this for 20 days, and the timer has drifted 15 minutes. Not a big deal, and the timers were cheap, so I am moderately satisfied with this product.

Pros
  • Needed a new timer for putting tree lights on auto.Ours was pretty old and ceased to operate correctly.
Cons
  • Very difficult to program!

Great addition to your household's energy saving plan.

I like the functionality. Once I got over the challenge of programming the device, everything was good to go. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • I like the timer very much , turns on the lights exactly on correct time
Cons
  • The mechanical ticking sound can be annoying for some people

Constant clicking sound

I ordered a 2-pack, and they worked fine for about 3 months, but then both developed this annoying clicking sound constantly, even when off. Would not buy again.

Pros
  • Work as expected. I’m happy with the purchase
Cons
  • The device may not work with power strips or extension cords

24 hr clock takes out guess work

Works great for my block heaters in my diesel equipment. The 24 hr clock makes it easier to know exactly when (am or pm) your engine with be warm.

Pros
  • easy to set up , it work fine so far. I have it for two month now so far so good !
Cons
  • I purchased two of them. One works fine, the other one not so much.

Works well but, some of them are noisy

I like that the timer is in military time which makes it easier for me to set it. What I don’t like is 2 out of the three timers I bought are noisy!

Pros
  • Excelent for Christmas ligth
Cons
  • It looses time. It needs to be more accurate.

Plusmart 24hr programmable timer

Works great. But a little large if you have needed outlets adjoining you will not be able to use it the timer takes up too much space.

Pros
  • Easy to use. Had one defective timer. Excellent customer service replacement no charge.
Cons
  • One of them would not keep time after a week.

Shouldn't be listed as 15 minute increments

Tried to set 15 min on 15 min off, does not work! The timer went 8 min on, 28 min off, then 15 min on 38 min off. Let's just say, you get what you pay for. RETURNED

Pros
  • Good stuff
Cons
  • Only works for outlets with standard US dimensions

Easy to set but ticks loudly

It works great. Easy to set. Has a manual on/off switch but after the first couple days it ticks very loudly. Handy great timers.

Pros
  • Handy great timers
Cons
  • Has a limited timer range of just 24 hours

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Silent for a while for my opinion

Silent for more than a month, but after less than two months of use, this began making noise. It is loud enough to hear from 15 ft away in a quiet, but not silent room. It is not an unpleasant noise, but I will look for others given the annoyance.If noise is of no concern, it functions as expected and is easy as pie to use.

Pros
  • Bulky but reliable
Cons
  • There is no indication of remaining time or time left until shut off

Great for 3 prong best in my review

It's the best 3 prong outlet, because the plug is in the front so you can plug in any item no matter how wide or tall or big. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • I love it
Cons
  • The mechanical timer can be louder than digital options

They do the job. in my review

Used for Christmas lights on patio, and for table lamp in dining room. Nice to have light on and off in a room without going to turn it on and off every evening.Great asset for those of us Sr. Citizens

Pros
  • 15 minute tabs are a must for me. GREAT little timer! Can't beat the price either.
Cons
  • Still don't know how to set these.

Easy great indoor timer

I have now tried a number of indoor timers that claimed to be easy to use. This one actually was! I set it up in minutes and had the lights on my tree going on and off for months automatically. Hooray!

Pros
  • Decent basic product
Cons
  • Requires manual adjustment to set the timer

Worked great makes a ticking noise

Worked great, came on and shut off the right time. You can hear a slight clicking sound, if that would bother you this isn’t for you.

Pros
  • Took a bit to understand how timers worked but figured it out and all is well!
Cons
  • While the timer worked just fine the other one does not work. Easy to set up just the one does not work.

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Hard to set. best in my review

One of the timers stuck when hit 8 am. They did refund my money very quickly. Hard to use push pins to set. The timer function may not be useful for all users.

Pros
  • Great for Christmas tree and light sets
Cons
  • The timer function may not be useful for all users

I bought 4 (2 packs). Mine arrived and 2 of them had loose parts.they appeared to work at first but stopped working after 3 days.

Pros
  • at this point ive found no problem with the timers
Cons
  • The timer may not be accurate for longer durations
