Great at first, but wore down fast!
August 2, 2012
I received this timer as a wedding gift, and loved it at first! then, I noticed the magnets on the back were not very strong, wouldn't hold the timer on the fridge by themselves, and fell out of the timer often, too. Then after only two months of use it quit beeping! I returned it for another, higher rated timer and have liked it much better.
Pros: Easy to Use, Weight
Cons: Quality, Fragile

Taylor Orange Digital Timer
July 17, 2012
A good, but not great timer. Nice rolling numbers. I like the size and easy to read numbers. Nice loud alarm. I do wish it came in other colors, though. I'd also like it to have a clock when you're not using the timer.
Pros: Accuracy, Size
Cons: Color, no clock

Acceptable
March 13, 2012
Been looking for an ez-read, ez-use simple countdown timer. This is the closest I got but not perfect.
Count-up from zero, hit start button, must hit stop button to stop. Count-down set time using min-sec buttons, hit start to countdown, when it reaches zero it will beep for 1 minute then stops, you can stop the alarm before the 1 minute by pressing stop. When it stops, the last countdown preset is automatically recalled and ready for next cycle. The display does not time out to blank. Hit both min-sec resets to zero. Alarm loudness and duration not configurable.
I measured idle batt consumption 0.025mA, to a quick calculation of 4.5 yrs idle usage. So varies from that depends on your usage. Use 2-AAA so make back a bit thick. Nice soft touch controls.
3 buttons timers are good for repeat use of a preset. If multiple presets, you should look for one with multi-preset buttons or a direct-entry keypad unit.
Pros: Easy to Use, Easy to Clean, Design, soft touch controls
Cons: 0.8" thick, non-configurable alarm duration, non-configurable alarm loudness, relatively expensive, battery non included

Overall good timer
December 1, 2011
I set out looking for a kitchen timer like they are using on Top Chef Texas. I liked the size and the way the numbers roll. This Taylor Orange timer is the closest I could find after scouring the net.
It's a very nice little timer. Easy to read, love how the numbers roll when changing, and the touch instead of "press" buttons are great. I think this little gadget will give me a long while of service and look good doing it. Also it's selling at a great price point.
Cons - Doesn't come with batteries
Only goes to 99m59s. Magnets could be a little bigger. Wish it came in other colors and sizes. I was really looking for something bigger.

Not loud enough
June 6, 2011
I purchased this timer because other reviewers said it was nice and loud, it is not. 99 minutes is not long enough for most things I have to time so this was not the timer for us. It was expensive and I found one for less than half the price at a local drug store which offered the same features. Lesson learned. It now sits in a drawer gathering dust.

Fantastic for outside/inside use

My wife bought me this timer to use when I BBQ because I kept melting all the others. This is, by far, the best and easiest timer I've ever had. And the price was good too!
Pros: Durable, Easy to Use, Accuracy, Quality, Easy to Clean, Easy to Store

The Coolest Timer
February 25, 2011
A timer with a huge readout and a loud ringer. And, I love how the digits scroll up and down....very cool. Easy to work with and a slim profile. Definitely a cool timer to have around......

big & easy
January 18, 2011
Finally a timer that I could see and hear from afar. Wish the magnets were bigger to adhere stronger on metals.
