Review: Very Straight forward simple timer - This is easy to use, and more than loud enough for a reasonable person with reasonable expectations. If you are in the same room or maybe a room over and there isn’t a ton of noise you should hear it. Otherwise I’d just carry take it with me to the other location. If you are setting it to less than 15 minutes I recommend bringing it to 15 than down to the low time you want to set so the spring will have enough energy. I like that it clings then shuts off. I don’t have to stop doing something else and turn off some incessant alarm. I also like that I can run it while I’m running my oven alarm for something else. If I wanted to go outside I can carry it out with me as well. Review: High Quality - I am very pleased with this timer. It is very basic in design and function. The only requirement on the part of the user is it is necessary to twist the setting knob all the way to 55 minutes and then bring it back to the desired time for setting. I highly recommend this Taylor timer. In fact, I have multiple items that I have purchased from Taylor over the years and each item has been of an outstanding reliable quality. ## Features - KITCHEN ESSENTIAL: Keep track of time and more with this mechanical timer. - EASY TO USE: Twist the dial to the desired time setting, and the alarm rings once it reaches the zero mark. - FUNCTIONAL DESIGN: Bold black graphics on the large dial face make setting times easy. - ALARM: Easily hear the alarm around the home with a loud nine-second ring. - GREAT FOR LEARNING: Easy to use for timing projects and assignments for school. - BOOST PRODUCTIVITY: Set a timer to focus on a project and allow 5 minutes of rest to break work into intervals. Also great for a hair stylist to set the alarm for client rinse times, especially when dealing with more than one customer at a time. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001U21Q78 | | Best Sellers Rank | #36,697 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #212 in Timers | | Brand | Taylor | | Brand Name | Taylor | | Color | Multicolor | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 2,680 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00077784058305 | | Included Components | Taylor Precision Products Pro Stainless Steel Mechanical Timer | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 1"D x 1"W x 1"H | | Item Type Name | Mechanical Stainless Steel Timer for School, Learning, Projects, and Kitchen Tasks | | Item Weight | 0.03 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Lifetime Brands Inc. | | Manufacturer Part Number | RA14276 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 1-year parts and labor. | | Material | Stainless Steel | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Number | 5830 | | Number of settings | 11 | | Product Dimensions | 1"D x 1"W x 1"H | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | UPC | 077784058305 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Taylor - **Color:** Multicolor - **Item Weight:** 0.03 Kilograms - **Material:** Stainless Steel - **Product Dimensions:** 1"D x 1"W x 1"H ## Images ![Taylor Mechanical Timer, Countdown with Easy-Turn Dial and Loud Ring Alarm, Compact Tool for Cooking, Baking, Classroom Activities, Homework, Studying, Projects, Stainless Steel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61T8DAmuP5L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is it manufactured in the USA?** A: Let's see. The timer is well made, easy to use, easy to read, works well. And it is manufactured in China. Why should this make a difference? **Q: Taylor 9 sec stainless mechanical timer - how long does it last before failing? More than 6 mos?** A: NOPE!... iI HAD TWO.... or maybe you'll be lucky. I had received one as a gift and it lasted a couple months. I bought another one to cover the fact the first one was a dud and the replacement didn't last either. One dud still sits on my counter to be seen (gift) but i use cheap-o Walmart white windups (about 3 bucks).... one in a kitchen drawer (stashed out of sight) and one in my office for various time reminders. They last long enough to keep me happy or until i drop them. I wasn't impressed with battery timers either, but now my microwave has a timer....BUT, i still use the cheap-o wind-ups a lot and can move them to where i need them. The TAYLOR STAINLESS LOOKS GREAT.... IT'S A POS.....IMHO and experience! **Q: How is it shipped** A: I just shipped in the normal way, like most other things. In a box with padding. It arrived in good condition. I hope I'm answering your question. **Q: Are the dimensions really 1"X1"X1"?** A: It is 1" high in the front, it is 2" high in the back. The face of the timer is round, about 3" in diameter. It sets on a rubber pad, is round on the base, about 3 3/4" in diameter, with 4 small rubber feet. This timer is VASTLY SUPERIOR to the kitchen timer I bought from Walmart , that failed less than one year after purchase. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Straight forward simple timer *by J***H on July 14, 2024* This is easy to use, and more than loud enough for a reasonable person with reasonable expectations.

Lately it has become inaccurate, not running for longer than 20 minutes. I’m ordering it again, as I really liked everything about it but the longevity; it feels good to my hands, & has a nice loud ding for the alarm. I’m hoping this next one lasts longer🤞 ## Frequently Bought Together - Taylor RA14276 Mechanical Stainless Steel Timer for School, Learning, Projects, and Kitchen Tasks, One Size, Multicolor - Kitchen Timers for Cooking, Chef Cooking Timer Clock with Loud Alarm,100% Mechanical Desk Timer - No Batteries Required - Magnetic Backing, Exquisite Stainless Steel Body - Countdown Reminder Magnetic - 60 Minute Wind Up Timer, Visual Mechanical Timer with Loud Alarm, Manual Countdown Timers for Classroom, Home, Study and Cooking (White) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/12810301-taylor-mechanical-timer-countdown-with-easy-turn-dial-and-loud](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/12810301-taylor-mechanical-timer-countdown-with-easy-turn-dial-and-loud) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-22*
