Looks funky, good gadget for modern kitchen.
Nonstandard interface (turn outer dial to set)
Beeps loud for one minute when going off
Gives you time elapsed since going off (counts down ro 0 then up)
Entertaining to set with one finger
Must remove from fridge to switch from clock mode to timer (buttons on back)
Plastic stand on back flimsy but functional for occasional use.
Can fit in shirt pocket if leaving kitchen while things cook.

Overall, recommended.

Edit - 1 year later - the magnet came off the back. Replaced w/doublesided tape. Otherwise still going strong on the original battery after daily use. Still recommended.

I love this timmer, I just wear it as a necklace, can hear it when it beeps and never loose it. Perfect

The ring dial set and large digits make it a great fridge magnet kitchen tool

Forget those little windup timers that break cuz the plastic is cheap.

This thing is easily adjustable, functions as a clock, and the alarm goes off for 1 full minute.

It's definitely worth the extra cost.

We have the rectangular BonJour timer. I was going to order another, but they are unavailable, so I tried this instead. This one seems flimsier, but more important is that the Quickset feature is not convenient to use. You rotate the outer portion of the timer to set the minutes, but there is no way to set seconds. Forget timing 90 seconds, for example. It even zeroes out the seconds if you try to add a minute while it is running. Also, the dial clicks as you turn it, but sometimes it ignores a click and sometimes it adds two minutes at a time.

I love this timer; it's great looking and very functional. It's very easy to set and loud enough to hear to other rooms in the house. I have two on my refrigerator door that I use all the time. Well worth it!

ASIN:ASIN BonJour Large Readout Quickset Timer with Clock-Bonjour timer needs improvements

My Bonjour timer didn't hold up to daily use. The loop handle broke off, the stand broke and the cover fell off the battery well and I can't get it to snap back on. Unfortunately, another product made in China that lacks durability.
