Will buy another one, but... November 24, 2008 I wanted a timer on a cord, and this is one. It has a clear, larger display. And setting the two on/off times is almost intuitive. (You need not use both settings.) Unit is quiet, unlike some cheap mechanical timers. And I liked the price.
Here's the slight catch. One would expect that you plug your lamp (or whatever) into the timer. Unfortunately, you plug the lamp into the back of the timer's wall plug. This necessitates pulling out any furniture further from the wall so as to not crush the plugs. I can see that Intermatic designed this setup to avoid (among other things) another set of messy wires on your end table.
I will buy another one.
Great product! November 23, 2008 My husband and I love this product! It is very easy to set up and really helps to get us going in the morning
Controls Internet for Kids September 21, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this timer to control my wireless internet in the house. The kids need to go to sleep sometime and they seemed to play on the computers forever, now the router turns off at 10:00 and is back on for my wife at 5:30. If it is the weekend I just hit the "on/off" button to let them play or talk longer. If I am mad at one for not carring out the trash while absorbed by the internet I just hit the same button and its off until the preset time or I hit the button again. Lovely
Oh! one more thing, the plug is piggy-backed by your appliance plug, so both plugs are at the outlet and the timer cord by itself then extends about 3 feet to allow it to lie on top of my desk, no clutter. Its Great
Good for lamps but check your appliance first September 9, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As someone else mentioned note that this timer supports TWO-PRONG PLUGS ONLY. Its socket has little tabs to try to keep people from stuffing in a grounded plug and this is what they should do because not properly grounding something that expects to be grounded can be dangerous.
Also of note is that it has a backup battery, which is good, I just wanted to mention as an FYI that it is a single LR44 "watch battery" which is very common. They are expensive in blister packs at strip mall chain electronic stores, but you can get them for a fraction of that price here on Amazon and although not US name brand so far the ones I've tried seem okay for the price.
Fantastic Timers August 14, 2008 This is a great timer. It is easy to setup and use. I bought 4 and plan to buy a few more. The internal battery is great for those power failure times. There is no resetting of time...the battery keeps it current. And it is small and silent.
