It's o.k. May 22, 2008
Works fine and is quite durable. My only regret is that I should have bought a digital instead. The flags don't drop on the minute, instead they just kind of hang up for anywhere from 15-45 seconds after the time is up.

An adequate timer, leaves a little to be desired May 10, 2007
This is an adequate timer, and it does its job. There were just a few things which I found disappointing. First of all, it is larger than I was expecting: 4 inches by 7 inches by 2 inches. Second, the sound made when pressing the buttons to switch the timers is not very pleasant; it is a pretty loud and plastic-sounding snap. Thirdly, if you press the buttons halfway down, instead of causing both clocks to stop (which is useful for rules challenges, for example), it causes both clocks to run -- not very useful! You have to flip the power switch on the back off to stop both clocks.

That being said, it is a reasonable clock for amateur use, and the seller was great: very prompt shipment (I placed my order on Sunday and received the product on Wednesday), and they even threw in a battery for free.

Simple, inexpensive Apr 14, 2007
My husband and I sometimes play a game called Rummy Cube (Rummy Kub), which is untimed, and as a result it can go on forever. This clock totally changes the dynamics, and has made the game highly competitive and great fun. The clock isn't fancy--simple on/off switch, set with a knob, mechanical with no battery--it gets pounded a lot but it doesn't seem to mind. A great find! Why pay twice as much?

From the Board Games Editor at BellaOnline.com Dec 04, 2005
This is a nice chess clock which works well and will continue to do so for years.

Chess clocks make great holiday gifts, not only for chess players, either! Scrabble players often appreciate them, as do players of other games where the competitive version of the game is timed. I've been multi-purposing mine, as well; I've been using it in the kitchen since my oven timer broke.

Absolutely the best chess clock Sep 14, 2005
This is an easy to use chess clock that kids and adults can pound on and still keeps on ticking. I have been abusing mine for 3 years now. Couldn't ask for better!
