Hour Minute Second Count Up Countdown Digital Kitchen Timer, Big Digits, Loud Alarm, Magnetic Backing, Retractable Stand, 3 Pack Black

This is a good price for three. I've read other reviews and agree with some negative comments, but I still give it 5 stars. Okay, yes the instructions are not good, but it's not hard to figure out. Two timers and a 24 hour clock ... count up or count down from 23:59:59. The alarm is loud enough and the magnet is okay, not really strong, but okay. It has a clip, stand, and magnet.Directions: the Mode button switches between the 24 hour clock and the timers. When in the timer mode, the Start/Stop/Clear buttons operate as you'd expect. When at zero, hit Start, and it begins to count up. There are two timers - I like that a lot. Hit Hour to switch to the other timer even when one is running. To set a Count-down timer, hit Clear to make sure it's at zero and choose the Min and Sec buttons. To set hours, hit a Sec or Min button first and then enter Hours for count-down. Otherwise, the Hour button simply toggles between the two timers.

Below I have written instructions on how to set the 24-hour clock and alarm features for this timer.As for review - these timers are pretty good and seem to work fine. The size is a little smaller than the palm of my hand (I am a tall guy) cheapish plastic but the buttons work fine and have a positive feel. The magnet stand is useful and the timer stands up well on a desk or attaches well to a metal surface. The only negatives are the lack of instructions (see below!) and the battery compartment is a little tricky to lock closed after you put a battery in it (you have to supply one AAA battery for this device). Overall I would recommend these. We are using them for our kids to time doing schoolwork and video game playtime allowed at home during the lockdown etc.I just purchased these in August 2020 - so not sure these instructions will work for older different versions? However, it is really easy to change/set the clock:1. Press the 'MODE' Button until you get to the clock. (The word 'CLOCK' will appear in the top right of the screen.)2. Press and hold the 'START/STOP' button until the seconds stop counting (you have to hold it for about 5 seconds).3. Once the seconds have stopped counting you can use the 'HOUR', 'MIN', and 'SEC' buttons to set the clock to your desire (remember it uses a 24hour clock!).4. Press and release the 'START/STOP' button again to exit the clock setting mode and the clock seconds will start ticking again - your done.The alarm 'Little Alarm Clock' symbol at the top of the screen is similar to set:1. Go to the Alarm Mode (Little Alarm Clock Symbol top of the screen) using the 'MODE' button.2. If the colon on the large time display is pulsing press the 'START/STOP' button once to stop it - if it is not pulsing go straight to step 3.3. Use the 'HOUR', 'MIN', and 'SEC' buttons to set the alarm time you desire (remember it uses a 24hour clock!).4. Press 'START/STOP' one more time to make the Alarm 'active' and the colons will start pulsing.The alarm will go off at the desired time. If you want to not have the alarm go off just use 'START/STOP' to stop the colon pulsing.Alarm Mode with colon pulsing - Alarm is active and will go off at the time set.Alarm Mode with colon not pulsing - Alarm is deactivated and will not go off.Hope this helps - it took me a while to figure it out!
