Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Polder 898-95 Clock, Timer and Stopwatch, Black
Customer Review: timer on the job
Summary: 4 Stars
I use this timer on the job as a proffesional chef and wear it around my neck. Its positives are that its really fast and simple to program a countdown time. The fact that you can carry it with you and not put it in your pocket is great as well. The timer beep is plenty loud. Negatives are that its buttons are extremley sensitive so you cannot wear it inside a shirt so you look like some tech geek with it around your neck all day. Its also moisture sensitive so do not get it wet, though it does not crash entirely (not yet anyway!). Multiple timing settings would be great.
Customer Review: I've Owned One for Ten Years
Summary: 5 Stars
I first bought the white version of this timer about ten years ago. At that time, it sold for $30, so at $15 it's a bargain; recently I bought the black version, which with its colored buttons looks cooler than white.
For the last few years, I've used the old one at least ten times a day, without ever having to change batteries. I've dropped it a few times on a ceramic floor and otherwise abused it occasionally, but all three functions still work perfectly. It's simple to set, has a "batch feature" (meaning it recalls the previous setting when you turn it off) so you don't have to reset it when you continue to use a particular setting. It's meant to be carried around your neck, if you wish, so it's on the small side and the compact button layout might not be convenient for people with arthritis.
It does what it was designed to do extremely well; what more can you ask?
Customer Review: Cool timekeeper with a couple of litle problems.
Summary: 4 Stars
The size, shape, button layout, chouce of time, count up timer, count down timer is neat. Good for timing your work or cooking food. Has a magnet on back and long cord so it's handy to carry, store on fridge, other metal.
Main drawback is that timer only goes to 9:59 hours. No good for timing long events (ie consulting jobs). Buttons are a bit sensitive and there's no hold button so if you do carry it you have to be careful pushing by mistake.
Customer Review: ON TIME and AS ADVERTISED
Summary: 5 Stars
Simply put and most important of all product and service was as advertised and delivered on timeCustomer Review: the best timer
Summary: 5 Stars
This timer is multi-functional, small enough to put in your pocket, a chord to hang round your neck, and a magnet to allow it to be placed on the whiteboard or fridge.
