The tablet works great and the alarm volume is good.

My grandparents have a timer that still works after 50+ years, indicating its durability.
I will update the review if I find the durability lacking.
I would have expected a metal timer to be sturdier, but the timer feels fragile.
Sometimes the timer does not ring for short durations like 5 or 10 mins and I am unable to figure out why, although it consistently rings for longer times.
71% found it easy to use
This timer works better than any other timer I have used.
When setting the timer, it feels smooth and has a modern look.
The stainless steel body is easy to clean.
I need to replace the timer because it is unreliable, but I love its horizontal design which allows easy one-handed operation.

74% appreciated the loud alarm, but 26% faced issues
The alarm volume is of good quality and the timer works great.
The bell is audible over the TV in the living room and not too loud when I am in the kitchen next to it.
My timer is not functioning properly. It rings at 3-4 minutes but not at 0, sometimes it doesn't ring at all, and it randomly gets stuck.
I have no hearing issues, but the timer is not audible in the next room.
