I've been looking awhile for a timer for taking pills. For about $10, this did the job. OK it's orange, so slight drawback, but otherwise it's got a lot of choices. You can choose between an alarm, only vibrate, or both which makes it versatile to use different ways no matter what I'm doing and where. You can set up to 5 times to take pills or just use the countdown timer if you just want to take your pills every couple hours, like I do since my schedules might be different each day. Also is great to put in your pocket since the buttons are basically flush. I found the rotating disk in the front very loose and also no notation on any of the areas for pills so you could tell which pills are taken first, etc. I ended up using a label maker to create stickers for the inside, but I'm considering doing another set for inside each pill area so you could see from the front and use the rotating disk to access. Quite simply a handy device with a lot of choice and very little price. I just can't beat the $10.
