I work for a Neuropsychologist doing neuro/psych testing. I do a lot of IQ, memory, attention span and problem solving tests that require me to write something while timing or checking the time. This clipboard makes that so much easier. Not only does it make my work easier, it allows me to time things in an unobtrusive way, that most patients do not even notice. It also allows me to check the time without blatantly looking at my watch. I like the black plastic design that is more durable than traditional pressed clipboards, and also allows me to permanently tape often used information to it. This makes my job so much easier, I would definitely recommend it to anyone who has similar needs.

Great all-in-one concept, but falls a bit short for the price. The calculator and timing functions work fine. The board has more flex to it than I would like. Setting date, time and alarms is not intuitive. There is no way to prevent the buttons from being depressed if you pack the clipboard for travel, so be prepared for date/time/alarm resets every time. The hourly chime is unnecessary and distracting.

If the board were a bit sturdier and if a button cover were available (or perhaps an aluminum version), this would be a great product for the industrial workplace.

I am reading teacher that does lots of assessments. This is an essential tool. Clock with alarm, calculator and stopwatch make this a no-brainer for purchasing. Kind of on the expensive side and not intuitively designed, it is still a solid purchase for my needs.

This product is very durable and has six different functions. It is the all-in-one tool, when it comes to clipboards. Why carry 4 different things when you just to have this tool. Great Product!!

it is a very nice clip board but it is to thin,other than that not bad for the price.

I should return this thing but it kinda works to hold paper. Key word, kinda. It came with no instructions and i cant for the life of me figure out how to set the clock on it. The calculator works but cant get the stop watch to come up. All the days of the week are lit up but the "sun" and "fri" icons are flashing. The screen is hard to read. The ruler on the side is really all that this thing is good for.

What a disappointment! The idea is great but the execution is awful. The clip is so weak it doesn't hold any paper whatsoever. The clock does not hold correct time. To charge $20 for this piece of junk is a joke (on the buyer!)

Not really impressed with this clipboard, thin cheap plastic, but then I got what I paid for. The stop watch and calculator is small and not intuitive to use.

I bought this clipboard because I need to keep track of the time while I am with clients. However, if I sit in a chair that is not directly in front of a window or under a light, then the clock stops working. The clock also stops working if I accidentally put a sheet of paper on top of the solar power cell. When I take the paper off of the power cell or move back under a light, then the clock starts working again, but it picks up where it left off - e.g., if I had a paper on the power cell for 10 minutes, the clock falls behind 10 minutes. This clock created a lot of problems for me on my first day of using the clipboard. If you only need this clipboard for the calculator, it may be fine, but if you need a clock, DO NOT BUY IT.

It looks great in the picture, but the product itself is absolutely in need of revision. The Calculator and stopwatch function works seasonally, or when it's in mood. The clipper so loose and weak that paper just slips out. And the board has no rigidity. I think it's made in china and this one must've missed the quality checklist!!
