Contour Digital Kitchen Timer, Magnetic, 99 Min 59 Sec | Count Up/Down Timer, Loud Beep Alarm, Large LCD Display, Start/Stop Button, Rear Stand For Countertop Use, 1x LR44 Included

This may be the older model but it’s SO MUCH BETTER! After smashing my 15 year old Salter Timer one too many times my hubby spent £20 on the posh black newest model and I’ve hated since day one! Too loud, hard to programme, doesn’t always start etc. This one - 1/2 the price and although not as good as the original - much better than the other! Easy to push buttons - I have issues with my hands - more compact, sticks out less as it’s not solid black and isn’t as loud as a fog horn even on quiet mode! Perfect!

Good medium- small size and it is magnetic making it easier to attach to your kitchen fridge to assist you when cooking. Set up is simple and straight forward and is easy to use even to those who have never used a timer before. Alarm ring is loud enough for you to hear even when you are not in the kitchen, making it ideal to have for people who are hard of hearing. Battery life last for a long time and buttons and digital numbers are large and clear enough for use to see and read and appearance is great as well.

I've had a Salter timer for many years. It has been a very well used tool in my kitchen. Unfortunately, I recently had a accident with this timer and needed to replace it. As I was so pleased with the timer I had for so many years, I decided to purchase another Salter. The item received is very much the same product as my previous timer. However, it has been re-designed to save money, not to improve. The item is flimsy, the buttons are loose, the magnets are too weak. Thus, when pressing the buttons, it will not stay in place on the surface secured to. The bleep is so quite, that unless you are in the actual room when it goes off, you will not hear it. I am very disappointed with this product and will be sending it back.

Nice large easy to read display and very easy to set. It holds well to the fridgerator via the magnetic pads. Good value for money at £7.50. Only one negative aspect: beep is on the quiet side. This is fine if you are young with good hearing, but if you are older with less sensitive hearing then this will probably be disappointing.

I find it very easy to use and more than loud enough for my needs. The stand is useful though difficult to use, it seems to stick closed. I do not need the magnetic atachment , which is just as well as 2 of them out of 4 are missing and it will never sit flat or stick to a metal surface. Salter need better quality control.

Not much to say- does what it says on the tin. very easy to use and large display means you can see it from the other side of the room easily enough. Should last as it replaced another Salter timer which finally gave up the ghost after 8 years of daily use.

4 buttons. Add minutes, add hours, reset and start. Couldn't be simpler. It's self standing, so you can take it with you to any rooms and stand it where you can see it. It's is also magnetic so you can stick it to the fridge when not in use or when you're staying in the kitchen. Bought it when moving into a new house which has a cooker but no timer (unlike my old one). Arrived next day. Perfect. On the down side, it is only a cheap, plastic, battery operated gizmo. It's not delicate but don't expect it to survive poor or careless treatment.

Frustrating. There are two versions of this timer, the first was extremely good, and the later one poor. They look similar from the front, but the original version has just one magnet at the back. This seemed to be the only issue with this version, as it didn't stick to a fridge etc very well and it tipped if you tried to press a button. But when free standing I have found them flawless, buttons operate properly every time, loud beep, does everything you need, and I have used them extensively for cooking commercially. So when I ordered some more recently it was very frustrating to find they had changed, though initially it looked for the better. The improvement is that they now have four magnets at the back, one at each corner, and so they stick much better to a metal surface, and pressing the buttons becomes possible when mounted like this. But the two downsides are that a) the beep is not so loud, which is minor for me but perhaps not for others, and b) the big one, which is that the buttons no longer operate correctly every time, but very, very often either fail to register, or register a double press. This unfortunately renders them really frustrating to use, to the point where I no longer want to use them at all. Salter have unfortunately turned a really good timer into a poor one. If they could fix the button problem, then they would go back to being brilliant.

Always works, like my previous old one which I had for a decade

… ist die „SALTER Contour elektronische Küchenuhr“ Ob beim Backen, Tee-Aufbrühen, Nudel- bzw. Kartoffel-Kochen etc.: Bei vielen Tätigkeiten im Haushalt und vor allem beim Kochen und Backen ist Frau/Mann darauf angewiesen, eine bestimmte Zeit (genau) einzuhalten. Hierbei ist die „SALTER Contour elektronische Küchenuhr ein wertvoller und unentbehrlicher Helfer. Die Küchenuhr wurde sehr schnell und gut verpackt (inclusive Batterie) geliefert und ist kinderleicht zu bedienen: Man stellt die gewünschte Zeit in Minuten und (falls erforderlich) Sekunden ein, drückt auf den Start Botton und schon läuft die Zeit rückwärts, bis sich der akustische Alarm (falls man nicht die Stopp-Taste betätigt) für eine Minute lang bemerkbar macht. Betätigt man dann den Reset-Knopf, zeigt die Anzeige wieder 00.00. Man kann die „SALTER Contour elektronische Küchenuhr“ aber auch als Zeitmesser benutzen, wenn man z.B. genau wissen muss, wann der Braten in den Ofen muss: Hierfür startet man bei der Null-Anzeige, drückt des Startknopf, die Uhr beginnt (rückwärts) zu zählen und zeigt den genauen Zeitpunkt bis 99:59 Uhr an und fängt danach wieder bei 00:01 von neuem an zu zählen. Man kann die „SALTER Contour elektronische Küchenuhr“ sowohl mittels vier eingebauter Magneten auf einem metallischen Untergrund befestigen. Will man jedoch die auf der Rückseite angebrachte Stand-Vorrichtung nutzen, klappt man diese (vorsichtig) aus und die Küchenuhr hat einen festen Stand. Da die entsprechenden Teile aus relativ dünnem Kunststoff gefertigt sind, würde ich hier aber zur Vorsicht raten, will man diese Befestigung nicht gleich beschädigen. Nach mehreren Tests, finde ich persönlich, ist die „SALTER Contour elektronische Küchenuhr“ ein sehr gut verarbeitetes und zweckmäßiges Hilfsmittel, im schicken Metall-Design, das fast in jede Küche passt ist, und sehr oft zum Einsatz kommen wird bei den vielen in Küche und Haushalt anfallenden, auf den Zeitpunkt genauen Arbeiten. Und da, meiner Meinung nach der Amazon-Preis z.Zt. sehr günstig ist, kann ich diesen stabilen Küchentimer im Metallgehäuse, gerne empfehlen, denn die Uhr geht auf die Sekunde genau.
