Wonderful and easy to use!
Very easy to use and beeping sound is good as I am hard of hearing. I like the idea of carrying my timer with me as I work around the home as now I have some peace of mind knowing I don't have to worry about not hearing a buzzer anymore. I have had so many other timers work for short time then quit but this one is worth having.

Great timer, esp. for deaf or blind
While this timer could be used by anyone, it is especially good for those who are deaf or blind. Every time the minute or hour button is pushed, the timer beeps and vibrates, confirming that a number was entered. Most timers do not have this feature. The alarm can beep and vibrate or just vibrate, making it easy to hear or feel when the time has elapsed. Unlike one of the talking timers on the market, the batteries are standard AAA and can be replaced easily via a sliding door on the back. The timer will also beep/vibrate 3 times to confirm that you put the batteries in correctly. I am a rehab specialist and use this timer with all of my deaf, blind, and deafblind clients. One caution: the vibrating alarm can shake the timer off the table. Keep it away from the edge or clip it to your pocket. The beeping alarm is too high-pitched to be heard by many hard-of-hearing folks, but the vibrating alarm can work for them if the timer is clipped on.

The product fits our needs
This is a great product but it should have a built in magnet so it can be attached to the oven door or even a stainless steel over the range vent...

Both timers were received on time and well packaged. My wife loves hers and has used it consistenly for her multiple eye drops which she must apply during the day. I however have found a few inconvenient features which I think the manufacturer should address. 1) The operational buttons extend outside of the machine's shell which with any inadvertent touch changes the time setting. It therefore cannot be kept in my pockets while I am moving around. 2) With the battery power used in the machine the beep could and should be much louder. Both my wife and I have trouble hearing it. 3) The machine's shell is so smooth and slides so easily on a smooth surface that the buzz vibration causes it to slide off the counter and fall on the floor which will eventually destroy the machine. I have had to put rough tape on the bottom panel to prevent this..
