Salter 355 BKXCDU Digital Kitchen Timer - LCD Display, Loud Clock Timer, Magnetic Cooking Stopwatch, Self Standing, Count Up Or Down,19 Hours 59 Minutes and 59 Seconds, Memory Function, Large Buttons

Brilliant little timer! I bought one of these for my elderly mother who is deaf and she can hear it at the loudest volume even when she's in another room. I ordered this one for myself and just the lowest volume is fine for me, haven't needed anything louder yet. Maybe if I was out in the garden or upstairs I might use it. So easy to use with a very clear display.

Good timer. The beep/alarm sound is very loud and clear. Very useful when you switch on the hob, as it reminds you to turn it off or to time your recipe. The physical, clicky buttons are useful as well.I believe the loudness is set to level 1 (out of 3), and it is already very loud.

Salter usually a well made product, which it is. It has a separate hour facility, which makes it simpler to use rather than having to press the minute button up to an hour.My one complaint is the alarm sound it makes when timer goes off. It is far too much like a fire alarm. Really unsuitable.If I hadn’t opened and tried it I would have returned.Please Salter reconsider the sound. One star removed due to this.

Good but v loud even on lowest setting. Shouldn’t complain as this is probably a good thing!

Good display and easy to use. Counts dowrn as well as up. Solid build.It has no off switch (which was what failed on another product) but an LCD display uses little power.

The Salter 355 BKXCDU digital kitchen timer has been a great little kitchen tool. My son uses it all the time when cooking, and it’s proven to be very reliable.It’s accurate, easy to set, and most importantly the alarm is nice and loud, so there’s no chance of missing it in a busy kitchen. The magnets on the back are also surprisingly strong, allowing it to stick securely to the fridge or other metal surfaces without sliding off.It’s simple, practical, and does exactly what you need from a kitchen timer.Pros:Accurate and reliable timingLoud alarm that’s easy to hearStrong magnets hold it securely in placeSimple and easy to useGreat for regular kitchen useCons:Basic design with no advanced featuresDisplay could be larger for some usersOverall, a dependable kitchen timer that works very well and gets used constantly in our kitchen.

It does the basics well - there's a stopwatch (up to 19hrs 59m), and there's a countdown timer. Not much other than that. There are a few questionable design choices though.1. It's incredibly loud, even on the lowest setting. It's virtually at the level of a fire alarm. The louder options must be deafening.2. I do wonder why it needs to be so thick.3. Be very wary if you're a bit forgetful and you use the stopwatch function - there have been times when I unknowingly left the stopwatch running, I go out to work or shopping the following day, and when I come home, I can hear the damn thing beeping away from outside the door (sorry to my neighbours!). Once it reaches that 19hr59m stopwatch limit, evidently it does DOES NOT stop beeping till you turn it off, which I really think is unnecessary.So as long as you're mindful, I suppose it does its job.

Brilliant! Better than expected. No gimmicky, complicated clock, duel settings, modes etc. Just a well made timer. The buttons work perfectly, unlike all the cheaper ones I've ever had, where if you press 'start', they often sort of double press onto 'stop'. The switch on the side sets the volume to 3 levels, which is REALLY useful! The lowest setting is bit more quiet than my old timer. I have just compared them. The pattern of the alarm is 3 beeps, then the 4th beat is missing - repeated. The set of 4 beats lasts 1 second, which is a third slower than my old, cheap, tacky white one, which had the same beep pattern. The pitch of this is a bit higher and is not annoying. Its magnets stick very tightly to a fridge or radiator. It is about an inch thick, and feels strong, heavy and nice. Didn't know that 'Salter' is a 260 year old British company, although this is made in China.

Doet zijn werk en het maakt een luid geluid, voldoende om boven het kookgeluid te komen. De duurzaamheid moet nog blijken want we hebben het nog maar enkele weken.

This one is just fine. I may get another one. I use it for timing cooking. Thank you.

By day, the magnet holds it securely on the fridge. And when the sun comes out, it is perfect for BBQ time in the garden. Large easy to read display. Selectable alarm loudness. Simple to use. Was a little worried that the display is always on but as it is LCD, battery drain is not an issue. Now it it is finding new uses as timer for when my daughter is taking a “break” from school homework. Glad that I purchased this...my daughter, less so :o)

Opérationnel, précision, facile d'utilisation.

Stora och tydliga knappar och siffror. Enkel att använda och tydlig signal. Bra magnet så den står still på köksfläkten eller spisen.
