    Useful, simple to use and good value.
    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.

    Works ok
    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!

    Accurate timer, good design, loud ring
    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.

    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.

    Works very well, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS!
    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!

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersWonderful timer in hard to open blister pack!
    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.

    Loud and clea
    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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 .

    My husband needed this for work purposes
    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.
