Mechanical Kitchen Timer, Cute Animal Wind Up 60 Minutes Manual Countdown for Kids, Classroom, Home, Study and Cooking (Orange Fox)

This is a cute little kitchen timer. You spin it around to wind it up, then spin it back to set the time. The bell isn't super loud, but you can hear it. It's a good size, fits in my hand. The timer seems to be accurate. I use it in the kitchen and it looks adorable on the counter. I think it was worth buying.

The packaging came with very clear instructions to wind the timer all the way to 55 minutes, and *then* set it to the time you want. If you do this, it works exactly as described. If you don’t and you get mad that it doesn’t ring, I’ll have to assume you can’t read. Seriously. I was skeptical of this product due to the reviews until I tried it myself and realized a lot of the reviews are made by impatient people who either can’t or won’t read the short leaflet that is the first thing you see when opening the box. It’s a mechanical timer, not a digital one, of course it’s going to work differently than what you’re used to with alarm clocks.That said, when you follow the instructions, this product works excellently. I purchased it to use the Pomodoro method while I’m working from home, and this cute little fox guy sitting on my desk makes me want to use it all the time! It does tick, but I find it relaxing and it keeps me focused much like a metronome would. The ringing is also loud enough that I can definitely hear it from anywhere in my apartment, but it shuts off after a couple seconds on its own. It’s also much smaller in size than any clock I came across while still being easily legible. Easy to use, doesn’t clutter my desk, and overall a great deal for what I paid.

I bought this adorable fox timer for my kids (ages 6, 8, and 9) to help them manage their time better—whether it’s for TV, homework, or even keeping showers reasonable. It’s so simple to use, the quality is great, and I was pleasantly surprised by the low price! I’ve even been using it in the kitchen and loved it so much that I ordered a second one. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a cute and practical way to keep on schedule!

Haven't tested the pinpoint accuracy for cooking but for my purposes of timing kids activities and letting me know when my Espresso machine is heated up I love it. Its super cute and loud enough but not too loud. Bell is kinda nostalgic and the color and design fits well in the kitchen. Just remember to turn past 55min to charge it THEN set your desired time.

Great look. Very cute. Has a difficult winding mechanic to make it work that young kids might not understand.

This little fox timer is so cute, It works well and looks nice on top of my stove.

Doesn’t ding once the timer goes off

I love it! I bought this as a timer for my computer time (I tend to disregard the timers on my devices)and it works well and is so cute. I may buy another of the other characters if this one holds up well. I like the simplicity of it. No batteries needed.
