About Lux CP242859-012E Mechanical Timer, Short Ring
Overall Feedback:
75% positive
70% were impressed with the accuracy, but 30% weren't
The new timer is good, but it has a play of two or three minutes in accuracy.
The timer is not accurate for short-term use and keeps ticking after the bell, making it difficult to know how much time is left.
65% appreciated the long battery life
This timer is the best as it does not require batteries or any electronic setup.
I have used the timer for 25 years and was happy to find that they are still available after it finally broke.
65% liked the clear display, but 35% found it hard
I am disappointed with the new version of the product as the alarm bell is not loud enough.
I expected the timer to signal with a single ding, but it rings like an alarm clock, which is long and loud.
71% praised the durability, while 29% found it fragile
I am confident that this timer will last for many years to come due to its durable construction.
The timer is easy, quick and reliable in terms of old fashion reliability.
I used the product for many years and it broke only after dropping it on the floor.
If the timer falls to the ground or gets banged up in a drawer, the plastic will crack.

69% found it easy to use
The timer I replaced was easy to wipe off and totally enclosed.
70% appreciated the loud alarm, but 30% faced issues
I was impressed with the weight, loudness of the bell, quality of the build, and action of the dial.
I would improve the bell as it is a bit weak.
The bell sound is short and weak, and it might not even be audible when it triggers off. This resulted in a rating of 3 from me.
