My elderly and quite deaf father uses this daily as an alert to wake him from an afternoon snooze. The ring is loud enough and long enough to do this so I guess it would be fine in the kitchen. (This is the second one purchased, the first one failed after 2 1/2 years of daily use, so I don’t really begrudge having to buy another at this price).
A good timer for the money. A wee bit fiddly to get the timer started, but once you get the hang of it, the timer works well. A good bell!!
Purchased to replace an old timer and works very well. Still working years after purchase. Brilliant purchase.
This is the second Salter timer I have bought.It shows I was happy with the first one,it is very sturdy and value for money.I had the first one longer than the guarantee of 3 years.
Very easy to use, loud bell ring which you can hear from different rooms, would recommend.
As from today 16th June this product has ceased to work so would request a refund
When the time came to replace our old wind-up timer, we bought a digital one thinking it would be more efficient. We were wrong and after only several months of having to regularly change batteries, we reverted back to a manual timer and bought this Salter manual timer which not only looks good but is extremely functional and efficient.
A good well made timer that can be used for many purposes. Clockwork so no need for batteries. Looks nice next to the Aga.
Easy to use very sturdy. Nice looking just a good Timer.
My previous timers proved unreliable and Zalter is an excellent replaceme
It’s not a cheap flimsy timer like most are, I’ve had so many that break days after buying them, this is definitely worth the price, I guess you only get what you pay for!
Cheap isn’t always cheap in the long run.
The timer is reliable which is the main thing. I really recommend it. Sturdy too.
A handy little item….my battery timer was always out if charge when I needed it. Easy to use, takes up almost no space and works as expected.
Great timer, easy to use, easy to clean and works well.

An excellent product – well built and nice to use and with 100% accuracy – would buy agai
My very old Smiths timer was a 5 hour clock before the plastic completely disintegrated but it seems no one makes them any more. This one hour timer does the job and times well. Just have to remember how many one hour times I have done if it is a longer time I need!
i need reminding while cooking and this does it perfectly.It has a good base so doesn,t get knocked over unlike my last egg-type timer.
Very nice timer … it has a good long ring, not frighteningly loud so it doesn’t make you jump … it’s good to have a mechanical timer, as they all seem to be digital now. Very accurate and nice looking brushed stainless steel, happy to leave it out on the worktop.
I found this timer to be very good, and is pretty accurate time keeping. Thank you.

Follow the instructions and it works perfectly with a loud, long ring to tell that the set time is up
Easy to use. Easy to read. Good stability on counter top. Good value.
Repeat purchase. Just very easy to use and nice to have something chunky rather than electronic. This is a replacement product for an identical model that lasted over 5 years with a lot of use.
This is an easy to use timer. Just remember to fully wind the timer all the way round and wind back to the time you want to set it to. The bell rings for a long time and is quite loud. I give it 10/10.
I use the product for timing my meals. There is nothing that I dislike about the timer.
Just bought it so bit early to review but looks solid and 2 year guarantee
Smart and loud. Just what I needed. Goes well in the kitchen snd easy to wipe clean.
It does as it says in the advert , the ring is long and loud just what is required.
It’s just a minute off my digital version. Long & fairly loud trill fades comically at the end. Decent size for slippy bakers’ hands!
Works very well. Make sure you follow the instructions and the label on the back – wind the pinger round to 60 minutes and then back to the time you want, otherwise you won’t get a full ring when the time’s up.
It could do with better non-slip feet though as it doesn’t stay put.
People whinging in their reviews that you can’t hear the ring should try reading the instructions!
Perfect for timing my hair colour now I am diying it at home and it doesn’t matter if I get colour on it because it cleans easy
Bought for mum as a reminder to turn gas off she sets it for 10 mins when she’s heating her food up just to remind her to check gas is off when finished cooking very loud ringer she hears in next room
i bought this model three years ago and have used it daily to time my cooking,also as a reminder of when i want to do something,or a tv programme
The best kitchen timer instrument I have yet used. Thoroughly recommended.
Solid construction with attractive, no frills, design suitable for contemporary or period-style kitchen. Ringtone not quite as positive (loud) as I’ve been used to. Would thoroughly recommend.
Sturdy, and Easy to hold. rings for longer than most devices would so you don’t miss your timings
I like this timer because it is easy and quick to operate.
I like the size of it and how easy it is to hold and set.
I bought this for my grandmother who is hard of hearing, and she cannot stop telling me how great it is. The ring is loud and long enough that she can’t miss it. Couldn’t be happier with this product.
Superb timer. Really loud ring. Easy to turn dial, nice and firm to stand on counter-top. Due to being pre-packed in a difficult to open hard plastic casing which needed to be tackled with VERY STRONG kitchen scissors to extract the timer, is the reason I have given this 4 stars. Such wrapping is completely un-neccesary.
The great thing about this is that – unlike other timers – you can leave it in the kitchen and still hear it from the rest of the house, so you don’t have to take it along with you. Such an improvement on what I had before!
Spot on, nice sturdy item, attractive design with good sized knob that can be grasped with wet hands.
Loud bell, but do remember to turn the timer knob all the way and then back to the time required in order to wind the ringer.
From other reviews it seems some aren’t aware of this. Not exactly difficult to do.
Just what I wanted in my new fandango kitchen. A simple straightforward timer and not have to go through hoops setting a timer on the cooker, tumble dryer, etc.
I love this little timer! It’s exactly what I wanted and needed. I was putting things in the oven and forgetting to check the clock so I thought this would help. It has, no more burnt offerings! This timer has proved to be invaluable. I chose Salter because of the trusted brand name.
I had one before but it was old and needed replacing.
I bought this to replace my old one. The quality is still the same and I am very happy with it. I have tried cheaper ones in the past, but they don’t last as long as the Salter ones. I would recommend this product.

Does the job and the alarm is quite loud. Bonus no batteries required.
And works like a charm. Quicker to use than faffing about with the timer on the oven. However I see the price has gone up a couple of pounds since I bought (around 9 pounds) it and I thought THAT was really too expensive. I’m pretty sure the markup is only because it has the Salter reputation behind it.
I don’t forget anything that is cooking now, find it easier to use than the one on the ove
Not as loud as I was hoping. It’s for my mum who doesn’t hear well
It will not set for more than one hour. This is OK if you are able to re-set it. It was claimed to be very loud. This is not rue, and may not be noticed by someone in another room. The volume should be described as average.
Like this very much. Easy to use and the ring is very loud which enables me to hear it from another room.
Perfect, just what I wanted. The ticking and bell are just right and the time is almost spot on. Always remember to fully wind the timer and turn the dial back to the time required to set the correct time.
I bought it for my husband who has a tendency to put a saucepan of food on the hob then walk away and forget it! I did have to remind him to set the timer though.
Only fault is that the bell is not very loud, need to have the timer in the same room as yourself
Looks smart, easy to use, easy to clean and can be taken into another room so you can keep an eye on the time.
Easy to use. Stylish. Matches my kitchen accessories. Pleased with item.
Easy to use – big ring tone – just what I was looking for !!
Easy to use and replaces and old one that has worked for 10 years
good looking timer, easy see numbers and large positive knob, sits well on the counter. all in all a smart item. pat fulle
It works well and is better than the old timers that we had, they’re now in the dustbin for recycling !!
Easy to use; long ring on the alarm; looks good in our kitchen.
A good timer loud enough to still hear if you are in another room and easy to use.
Happy with my purchase. It has a good loud ring when the time is up, which some timers don’t have.
Really RINGS and long enough to really be “listened to”!!
Works as expected. Not that loud but can be taken with you if you are leaving the kitchen. ‘Old-fashioned’mechanical bell but nice sturdy product and looks good.
This is a smart-looking timer which has a reasonably good length of ringing time. The only criticism is that the centre of the dial which has to be turned to operate the clockwork mechanism, is completely black and cannot be read from any distance away. I solved this by attaching white sticky paper to the pointer on the dial so that it could be seen when I am standing on the other side of my kitchen. Otherwise I can recommend.
This is a great timer and worth the little extra it costs. You can time very accurately and the bell is pretty loud and long so if you are in a different room you will hear it. Certainly would recommend
Item was received at the Post Office before time and I collected it a day early just in time for a dinner party so I could spend time with my guests out of the kitchen with my timer by my side. My cooker timer is too quiet to hear from my lounge. Well done.
Does what it says on the tin. Very pleased be the missus!
It works, does what it’s supposed to do. I tried several others before settling on this.
Not as loud as I expected it to be.- but still good
I real nice timer works a treat and has a loud ,long ring
Neat. Works well. Robust, clean design.It replaced an Alessi one that looked nice but broke and couldn’t be fixed
A good item from a well known maker. A very simple timer for most kithcen jobs. BUT unlike some of the electronic version it has no repeat Nota problem as there are no batteries to worry about.
bell ring could have been a bit louder, we have had our last one for 15 years, they are well made
My old timer broke and this is a very satisfactory replacement.
Very handy to use in the kitchen as my cooker timer is far too complicated to set!!
bought it for my mother who gets a lot of use from it.
Does the job but the ringer just goes on forever, that’s either a good thing or a bad thing?
This is a brilliant little timer I got this from my mother-in-law who cannot use anything digital now she can time extra perfectio
The first delivered was faulty, very quickly replaced. Thank you.
The second delivered is working satisfactorily but does not seem the same quality of the previous one I had had for years but perhaps that is just ‘ageism’ on my part.
Good and accurate. I always feel Salter is a reliable brand.
An excellent timer . Read the instructions properly and it works every time perfectly . As it says , for example . If you want it to time say 10 minutes , wind the dial all the way around to nearly the 60min point CAREFULLY not like a bull at a gate and the return the dial to the 10 minute mark and it will ring very loudly and for a long period . As I said READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. Any mechanical timer if you are just setting say 3 or 4 minutes will not be exactly correct because you are just guessing where the 3 or 4 minute point . Its not rocket science . If you need exactly to the second you can only use a digital timer .
Neat beside the cooker with loud timer reminder. Remember to wind anti clockwise first!
Excellent I bought the timer for my mother. Loud and easy to use even with arthritic hands. She loves it.
An excellent product. great for timing items in the oven and a good loud ring when time is up. Little chance of not hearing it.
This is the second one I’ve bought – the first was probably a few years back from the high street so I was surprised to find it on Amazon. My husband likes it as it’s so easy to use by just turning the dial and with the type of work he does (timing how long a task takes) it gets constant use all day and has proved to stand up to that sort of use. There are other types of timers on the market but he insisted I got another Salter. So thanks Salter don’t change from this very simple but long lasting design.
I bought one for my sister who was forever burning saucepans and she was dlighted with it. My old one died a death, so I bought myself one also. Very good product.
I am delighted with it. I like the idea of clockwork no batteries necessary great news.
Can’t let you down.
Well presented and excellent looking product. Works a treat – take timer with you so you will not forget. Ringer is loud (excellent for hearing impaired).
Excelant product and easy to use, makes cooking a pleasure especialy when you have a cosiderable amount to cook well done
Does what it says on the tin. Is sturdy and it ticks, what more do you need? Also looks really good.
good product, does what it is supposed to do. only 4 stars because ring is not loud enough, ok if you are near it but if timer is downstairs and you are upstaris you dont hear it.
nice design – goes with my deco
The Salter Mechanical 60 minute timer is a robust device that any body can easily understand and work time after time no push buttons with graphics that rub off, digital read-outs that cant be seen in certain lights etc etc. Old fashioned it may be in its twist and go working method but it works and it’s stainless steel livery looks stylish too. Can ask for more but don’t want any more!
THis product does what it says it will do. I read the critical reviews saying the numbers rub off..but I think this only happens if you have cooking oils and fats on your hands as you turn the dial. Simple,unbreakable,no batteries,no-nonsense.All you need for simple timing jobs
