Customer Reviews of Tel Timer Talking Countdown Timer
Customer Review: Good, not great
Summary: 4 Stars
As advertised. Compact, does everything a talking count-down timer should do. Seller was prompt. Packaging was on the excessive side but that's fine.
My main irritation is that the battery contact seems weak and so it was hard to get it to start working in the first place (I was worried I got a bum product at first, but then it started working), and not infrequently the voice/sound sounds like the battery is being drained (strained, slower sound), even though the battery should be new. So far though, the battery keeps working. I'll try to update this if I find that the battery actually does die prematurely.
Two minor, annoying things about the design of this timer are:
1. No volume control (it's fairly loud and I live in an apartment)
2. Once it hits zero, it makes your chosen alarm sound for a full minute before counting the time past zero. This is loud and irritating as all the alarm sounds are irritating. This won't be an issue for you if you're unlikely to use the counting up (past zero) feature.
However, this timer is quite affordable, so these limitations are more than reasonable for the price.
I don't regret this purchase. I think it is a good buy if you are looking for a talking countdown timer. I use it to help me keep track of time when I am getting ready in the morning because I was born with no internal timer (adult ADHD), and it gets me out the door on time just fine :)
