Digital Dual Kitchen Timer, 3 Channels Count Down/up Triple Cooking Timer for Baking, Magnetic Memory-Preset Large-Display Adjustable Alarm Volume, Multi Times Management, 3A Battery Included, Orange

MOSTRUST Digital Dual Kitchen TimerWhen set to the highest alarm loudness (90 dba at the back of the timer, 88 dba at 12” in), it is loud enough to be heard two rooms away even with a TV on).This is a very nice triple timer design with ½” high digits on an LCD display and uses a 1" diameter ceramic disk resonator that is driven at 2 KHz which puts it right in the middle of the human audio spectrum where it is easily detected. The resonator is driven with two AAA batteries which are required to deliver the 90 dba output level at the back of the case (88 dba at 12” omnidirectionally) making it very effective even in a noisy kitchen and sufficient to get your attention 30 ft and three rooms away through a couple of doors and with the TV on. So it gets high marks on effectiveness.When a timer reaches zero and the audio alarm sounds, a red LED flashes illuminating the timer select button for the Alarm that is beeping. While I didn’t initially think I would use this feature, it quickly became apparent that when I have two (or more) of the same timers in the kitchen and one of them goes off, it is not immediately clear which Timer is sounding (since they are all loud). You can tell whether it is Alarm 1, 2, or 3, by the unique beep sequence (two beebs for Alarm 1, three for Alarm 2 and four for Alarm 3) but not which Timer is making the noise. The flashing red LED allows you to see from 20 ft away which one it is.The ability to store a preferred time for each alarm while still setting the timer for arbitrary times, recalling the preferred setting when you want it, is a highly useful feature. Since I cook hard boiled eggs for 14:33 but use the Timer for many other things between uses for cooking eggs, it is nice to not have need to reprogram the 14:33 each time I need to use it. I just leave Alarm 2 memory set to 14:33 then when I need to I select Alarm 2 and then press the M-button and it is set to 14:33. Not a big deal, but a clever and useful design detail.I was looking for a timer to replace two 40 yr old West Bend Model 53095 triple timers which have finally been dropped enough times that they are no longer reliable.I first tried the new West Bend model that is labeled as 50053 and discovered that it beeps at 4KHz which is outside what is considered the normal human speech spectrum, is powered by a single AAA battery, which makes it too quiet to be heard more than a few feet away (60 dba @ 3”).[note that the difference between 60 dba and 90 dba is a factor of 1000 in acoustic power which is a BIG DEAL in terms of how far away you can hear it]I then tried an OXO Good Grips Triple Kitchen Timer and found it to be unusable as the display is off except for one minute after you set it and then again when the timer goes off and the design results in very short battery life and thus excessively high operating cost.So I am happy to find an excellent and affordable replacement for a 40 year old triple timer with equal acoustic performance and a couple of additional useful features (the Memory capability, and the flashing red LED showing which Timer and which Alarm is going off). I highly recommend this one and will probably buy one more for high usage and as a spare for the time in the far distant future when there is a hard failure.Potential improvements: This timer does not provide any user feedback when a key is pressed, not a key click nor a beep. While tolerable, it is an unnecessary annoyance that could be fixed with a few lines of software (call the beep function at the beginning of the key handler) which would be a significant improvement without impacting battery life to any noticeable extent.

It works! Magnets are strong enough to hold onto my fridge and oven hood with no issue. If you have an issue, I suggest using a velcro command strip. The little "kick stand" is handy and seems strong enough. The volume functions fine in my one story 2 bedroom house. It's easy enough to carry around and/or put where I can hear it if it's noisy in the house. There's a hole to put a lanyard through, but no lanyard comes with it - I have string I'll use if I feel the need to wear it. Easy enough to set and read. Good size and looks good in the kitchen (I got the bright orange because I'm bound to loose it at some point).

A very practical design that is a great value for the money. The alarm volume is okay, but i would prefer it to be a little louder. The accuracy is very good and the functionality is a major selling point along with the button functionality. What I like most is the ability to set multiple timers in order to rotate pans halfway through your bake. A definite recommend.

This is the timer I have been looking for - it makes complex meal prep a breeze. For example - say you need to cook some veggies for 12 minutes but need to flip them halfway through. With a traditional timer, you would need to set it for 12 and try to remember to flip at 6 minutes or set it for 6 and then set it again for another six. With this timer, you can have three independent timers going at the same time. The display is easy to read and the completion beep is loud enough to hear from another room. My only qualm with the device is the magnets on the back are super weak and it slides down the side of the fridge a little - but this is not a deal breaker.If you tend to cook a lot of "meal prep" kits or complex dishes that require different foods/steps to happen at different time, this is the device for you.

I love that it has flashing light for timers and I can mute the sound completely. Turn timer off by long pressing the "Clear" button. I don't use the magnets on back, they work with a metal surface, not strong enough for coated metal, like on fridge.I put 1 minute on my timer and when it gets to the end of the minute, it flashes and I press ST/SP button. I love that it goes back to 1 minute automatically. So easy.Happy with the quality and battery life, exactly what I was looking for.

This timer is very quiet, even on the "loudest" setting. On the timer I purchased, the magnets do not hold the timer on my fridge door, they are too weak to hold it, it just slides down. I do like that it has three individual timers, and using the timer is very easy. I just wish it was louder and had better magnets. I can't leave it on my fridge like my previous timer, and I have to take the timer with me as I can't hear it go off in the kitchen if I am in the living room right next to the kitchen.

This is a great device. You can time 3 different things at a time if you need to. It also has a memory button to keep your times you often use. It’s all also a stop watch. Love that it magnetize and also has a stand at the back of you prefer. I used it to cook rice and fish tonight.. the ringer was nice and loud so easy to hear the end even if you are in another room. Love it!

dont buy this. i bought 2, and the screen does not automatically turn off when its done... youd think after all timers hit zero that at SOME point it would automatically turn off.. but no it does not. also, no flashlight not sure why in the world it says it has a flashlight.
