What Others Say
Loved it but didn't work very long
I actually did love this while it was working.
My head is in the clouds a lot so to have a timer
that I could just hang around my neck was very
handy so I wouldn't stay lost in a project. It
did have a loud tick which would have been nice
quieter but for the price...heh? Anyway, I really
enjoyed it and used it a lot but after a couple of
months it stopped working.
I would definitely pay more for something similiar
that I could wear around my neck, was quieter and
had a softer or adjustable ring...and that would last. :)
STOPPED WORKING AFTER FIVE MONTHS!!!
This timer stopped working after five months!!! Received no response from Polder customer service. It's junk!!!
An egg timer that doesnt hatch
simply put the egg timer counts down but does not ring. perhaps i have a defective one, but having read other reviews, many seem to share the same problem, suggesting poor workmanship overall or design. OK u buy from amazon so can return if it fails, but this is not a good product.
Ringer does not sound
The construction on this item is cheap, but I can live with that.
The timer produces a noisy, rapid ticking sound, and I would prefer this sound to be less loud and annoying, but I can live that too.
Wind up the pointer to set the timer, and it will faithfully tick down with the time, until...NOTHING. No ringer. No bell. No sound to indicate that the set time has expired.
This problem was reported in a few other reviews, but I foolishly ignored them with the classic "won't happen to me" attitude. Big mistake because I now have a defective item that will cost more than it is worth to send back for a replacement. D'oh!!
DO YOURSELF A FAVOR - DO NOT PURCHASE
Cookie Baker's Friend!
After scoring all six of Wilton's 1984 Classic Cookie molds in an eBay auction, I agreed to make several varieties of cookies for a Christmas carol party. Over a period of days, using the Polder 526-41 Sixty Minute Cooki's Timer, Yellow, (which I had purchased before making such a rash promise), I made dozens of cookies in eight shapes, three base recipes, and seven combinations of fruits, nuts, flavors, chocolate, and frostings, preparing each batch while the last one baked. Looking back, I realized that I couldn't have managed this complex job as well as I did without the help of my timer.
So far, I haven't had any problems with it. It's paid for itself, over and over by making time-critical baking jobs easier to monitor, preventing ... Read More
