Can't live without this timer!,
This review is from: CDN PT1A Digital Timer/Clock 4 Event Programmable (Kitchen)
I have had 2 of these timers and my mother has had at least one of these. They are great for keeping track of multiple things. That is it's best feature.My only complaint is that the magnet on the back isn't very strong. I keep mine on my stove hood and it often slides off and lands in the food. I am buying another one because the one I have now just got immersed in boiling water and doesn't work! My only other problem with this timer is setting the clock. I can never remember how to set it, so it's usually wrong.

This review is from: CDN PT1A Digital Timer/Clock 4 Event Programmable (Kitchen)
........ .... .... N O T E: Sadly, the PYREX PROFESSIONAL TIMER, which looks EXACTLY like the CDN timer....except for a different logo, in a different colour, (red, not black like the CDN), and which is SLIGHTLY, (VERY slightly), easier to slide between the various controls, and which I had mentiond was, (due to this easier sliding between the controls), even better than the CDN, seems no longer available. The difference, though slight, is greatly missed, (ROBINSON KNIFE COMPANY -- producer of the Pyrex Professional timer...please take note.) However, the CDN timer, described below, is 98% as good....and, as of this re-writing of my intro to my review, is the best timer on the market that I know of, anyway. If and whe the Pyrex Professional Timer ever comes back, I really recomnend it. But don't hold your breath, (sigh!) If you need a timer, NOW...the CDN timer, reviewed below, is definitely the one to buy. As I said, it is 98% identical to the Pyrex Professional. The BEST timer, in my opinion, on the market today......... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ORIGINAL REVIEW THIS IS THE ONLY TIMER I've ever come across which need not always start at 0. For instance, if you are timing how long you want to spend reading, and want to break the time up into two periods, you can start at 3 hours, time yourself down to 1 hour and 35 minutes, stop, then contin- ue on later, for the remaining time. I use this timer for everything.... As it's sometimes hard for me to walk for a long time, I simply use this timer in place of a pedometer, counting how long I stand up and walk around my apartment! It allows me to stop, keep the amount of time I've used, then sit down, and start counting again, after I have rested, without any re-setting! I also use the 4 separate timers as an alarm clock, setting each of them 1 1/2 minutes apart! (Hmmm...anyone know why the "1/2..1/4" key that used to be on all typewriters is nowhere to be found on any computers?) Anyway...this timer is small enough to be carried in in your pocket or purse. I got one years ago, and found it hard, then, to place and remove the battery. I'm glad this has now been corrected. Like another reviewer, I, too, have trouble setting the clock. My answer is to wait until 12:00....then quickly remove and replace the battery. (The clock starts at 12:00) 99% perfect! That's a difficult rating for any product to attain -- but in my estimation, this little timer has achieved it!

Multi-function timer,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: CDN PT1A Digital Timer/Clock 4 Event Programmable (Kitchen)
This timer has many usefull functions. It tells time, counts up and down, and offers 4 programable timing options. Unfortunately, the buttons are difficult to push, and sometimes get stuck, making it difficult to program. Also, the slide bar function selector doesn't always work, making it difficult to tell if you have succeeded in programming your timer.It's still more useful than an egg timer, but not as much as a previous timer, which had the problem with the button edges getting stuck on the edges of the holes they are in when you try to push them, but not the slide bar issue. Try a different brand, but the same style of timer.
