Great little analog timer. It shows graphically how much time is left, and you have a choice of whether or not it beeps at the end via a button on the back - you can select beep or no beep. The timer starts as soon as you move the pointer, and you can time up to an hour. Not a good timer if you're looking for seconds, but I use it for blocks of time, 3 or 5 minutes until I do this, or 15 minutes of that, type thing. Very pleased with this timer, it has been exactly what my ADD brain needs.

I got this timer after seeing it being used in a class to time roleplays. Since then, I have it sitting at my desk or when I am cleaning to set up an amount of time that I work without picking up my phone.This is a tool that is helpful for both kids and adults in tricking our brain to be more productive. It might seem a bit childish, but I don't care. It is worth it. I have set up one in every bedroom so everyone has access to it.

This one is more expensive than other 'no-name' brands, but for us it was totally worth it. The previous one we tried was half the price, but the timer was ridiculously loud and obnoxious. It also had a setting so it would beep for 30 seconds and for which you could crank the volume, which the kids always turned on to annoy me. The Time Timer is great because there is only one setting - it goes off for a few seconds and is not annoyingly loud. The clock/dial part also feels better quality and that it might last longer than our previous one. It is completely silent until the timer goes off, too. We purchased this one in 'pink' but be advised that it is more of a peachy colour, and the visual timer part is not red, it is a darker peachy colour. We use it for homeschooling and we love it so far. I'm glad we splurged on the Time Timer instead of another knock-off.

The use of area sweep for time remaining is a fantastic idea. The simple and utilitarian design and execution gets kudos as well. It's both the idea and the execution that gets this five stars. You can set this in...literally... a second or two. Just rotate the "on front" dial... and that's it!Front is where it should be. And it has a very nice tab on the dial that not only allows easy tactile feel for the time, but is an aid to rotate it too. Very nice.It has silence and alarm modes. But the nice thing about the alarm is it is short (but not too short), and does not require any user action (other than to set it or not). Just a "beep beep; beep beep; beep beep; beep beep". Four double beeps...and done. Avoid the user having to turn it off.Although the area sweep for time is great for children, I've found it very nice as a cook timer. The area can be seen from across kitchen and is cognitively pleasing. No numbers or hands to process; higher order cognitive thinking. Humans process area more easily than clock hands or numbers. A glance is all you need and you get immeidate/effortless feedback on time remaining.I"ll buy more.

If you’re comparing multiple desk timers, get this one!!!I struggle with focus and organization due to ADHD, and this has made such a difference. It’s straightforward (in a good way) and very good quality (and comes in a gorgeously designed minimalist all-recyclable packaging - which I’ve kept to use as a “travel case” for the timer).Just turn the dial to your desired time and watch the time slowly slip through your fingers (haha) - it’s genuinely helped me be far more productive and time-aware.There is one simple switch on the back that indicates whether you want the alarm to sound when the time is up or not. Ignore any of the other reviews complaining about this - I’ve found it’s simplicity is useful. When the timer runs out (and if the sound switch is turned on), the alarm doesn’t go off indefinitely — it only only sounds for four pairs of beeps before automatically stopping. (If you want to silence it sooner, you can turn the switch to off and then immediately back to on, for next time.) The alarm’s beep is appropriately loud/piercing in a way that mildly jolts your focus if you’re distracted, but isn’t excessively loud or grating. The point seems to be that it gets your attention in a way that won’t let you miss the timer going off — but this alarm knows it’s not trying to wake someone out of a deep slumber.Overall, this is straightforward, attractive, and well-made. The designers clearly took time to consider what it would be used for, and tailored the functionality to that. Highly recommend.
