About Colortrak 60 Minute Wind Up Timer
Overall Feedback:
74% positive
70% praised for its precise timing, while 30% found it lost a few seconds
The timer has survived several falls off counter and table tops. It is exactly what I expected for what I paid for it.
The timer lasts longer than it should for the same amount of minutes.
66% loved the long-lasting battery life, but 34% found it drained quickly
It's nice to have a kitchen timer that doesn't require a battery.
I have not mentioned anything about the kitchen timer's battery life.
This timer, along with other new ones, tends to last less than a year.
The timer is temperamental, ticking like no other and ringing only on a full moon.
64% found the countdown and countup function very useful, but 36% found it limited
I have explained how to set the timer by turning it clockwise all the way up to 55 minutes and then dialing back counterclockwise to the desired time.
I have experienced the timer hanging up and stopping the countdown at random times.
If set for less than around 10 minutes, the timer does not ding when time is up.
67% praised its compact and ergonomic design, but 33% found it too bulky
This timer is a reliable solution for timekeeping needs, with no batteries to replace or digital displays to decipher.
The timer is made of light plastic with an open back, which may not be the most durable construction. However, it should work fine as long as I don't drop it on a hard floor or something.
The analog timer goes off 20 seconds to a minute too early. I'm not sure if it's because of the unit I got or how it's designed.
71% found it easy to set and operate, but 29% had trouble navigating the settings
The timer is easy to operate and looks nice on the cabinet when not in use.
The timer is simple and can be used for everyday tasks.
I need to wind the timer to 60 minutes and then set the time.
I suggest cranking the dial to the furthest tension to easily overcome the issue.
66% appreciated the ability to set multiple timers, although 34% found it confusing to navigate
To set the timer, turn it clockwise to 55 mins and then counter-clockwise to the desired minute. Note this important information for those who may not read the instructions.
When I set the timer for less than around 10 minutes, it does not produce a sound when the time is up.
69% loved the loud and clear alarm, but 31% found it too soft
The timer is loud enough for a child in 'time out' to hear perfectly well, even if I don't follow the instructions.
The timer sometimes rings faintly instead of being consistently loud.
If you want to cook for 5 minutes or less, take it to 10 minutes and then down to 5 or less for it to ring. If it is set to 5 minutes or less, it times out without ringing.
The timer on my oven is quiet and cannot be heard from the back of the house, which is a problem if I'm cooking and at the back of the house. The only other notification is the smell of burnt dinner.
