I have at east 6 of these timers. They are my go to for Christmas lights. They are easy to use and very dependable. My oldest one is at least 5 year old and as good as day 1.

Replaced a different model/brand that crapped out after 6 years. Easy to use, good price. Made for outdoors so probably well made.

I use the product for timing my lights around my 2200 square foot deck.

I use this regularly and find it very easy to set up .... works like a charm, even in heavy rain.

Funcional y para exterior tal como se dice

Once I figured it out (Got help from another person) it worked perfectly.

I have a dusk turn on timer and wanted on to go no earlier. This did the trick well..

I bought this timer six years ago and have been using it continually since them to run decorative porch lights. It works great, easy to use, holds up to weather. Fantastic value, I’d buy it again.

Was advertised as having a 15 minute program but minimum was actually 30 minutes. Had to return item.

Loses time in the Canadian north cold weather. Works ok during spring, summer and fall but would not trust to use in the winter.

I decided to update my old timer. There was nothing wrong with it, I just decided to update it to a new version. I now regret that decision. The timer worked until it rained. After the rain it only worked with one garland plugged into it. Once I plugged in the other lights the circuit would trip. After 30 minutes of trouble shooting everything I decided to plug all of the lights directly into the outlet and I had zero issues. Now I’ll be turning my lights on and off manually for the rest of the holiday season. Next year I’ll be searching for a timer similar to the one I donated and not this one.

When we opened the lid/weather guard and started to adjust the pins, we noticed the wheel did not seem to be "seated" within the timer. Some other reviewers have remarked that their wheel doesn't seem to sit low enough in the channel ring for the pins to engage or trigger the timed on/off functions of this timer. We felt the same thing was true of ours. In fact, hubby noted that the wheel would lift right out of the channel ring.After some close inspection of the wheel and the timer with the wheel removed I suspected that the center cap with the current time pointer was actually "supposed" to also be a "retainer cap" meant to snap on AFTER the program wheel and hold the program wheel down in the ring-shaped channel of the timer. The flange around the edge of the center retainer cap, which was currently holding the wheel up out of the channel, it seemed, should actually act as both a retainer AND sort of "bearing" surface in contact with the top surface of the inner flange of the program wheel.The solution was this: with the wheel out of the timer, we firmly grasped the center retainer cap which has 3 snap in "posts", noting that the time pointer is located toward the bottom left post. We pulled it (the center cap) out from the unit, requiring some force, since it probably ISN'T supposed to be removed from the unit once it is snapped into place. BUT, as I had hoped, it DID pull out without breaking any of the little snap barbs. Now, it was a simple matter of placing the program wheel in the round channel of the timer and then pressing the retainer/center cap back into the unit, aligning the posts into the post sleeves with with the time indicator at the original bottom left position. It snapped into place perfectly! And not it snuggly and smoothly held the program wheel deeper in the channel as it is meant to do, so that the pins would now have proper contact with the on/off triggering of the timer unit. We depressed and lifted all the pins as needed for our desired on and off times and then rotated the wheel so the pointer on the center retainer cap pointed to the current time... ALL SET!!! PERFECT!!!We are now USING the timer, and it is keeping time perfectly and the timed on and off function is working just as we would expect. IF you receive a timer with the program wheel not being properly "retained" or held captive within the unit, it is a simple matter of grasping the center cap, using a bit of force to "snap out" the barbed posts of the center cap from the little post sleeves, placing the wheel back in the channel, and snapping the center cap back into place so that it now holds the program wheel captive within the unit. I realize that you shouldn't have to "reassemble" your new timer, but once I examined it and realized what was wrong, it was less of a hassle to just correct it than to send it back and wait for a replacement. In light of the abundance of great reviews in the past, I suspected that there had to be HOPE for this timer to be a great one despite the initial observation that these last two components had been assembled in the wrong order. :)I sure hope this helps! I had tried to write a "Question" AND "Answer" on this product, addressing this minor correction to the assembly, but the Amazon Q & A system didn't end up allowing me to "answer" my own question as I had hoped and intended to do.Blessings! :)
