About this product
Keep your cooking on track with this easy-to-use digital kitchen timer. The Salter Big Button Electronic Timer features a large LCD display and oversized startstop button, so you can set it and read it without squinting mid-recipe. It's compact enough to tuck into any corner of your kitchen and works as a freestanding timer or attaches magnetically to your fridge or oven door, keeping it within reach when you need it most.
The memory function stores your last setting, and the loud beeper makes sure you never miss a moment when your pasta's ready or your cake needs checking. It counts down for up to 99 minutes and 59 seconds, or counts up when you're tracking cooking time on the fly.

Customers Say
Easy to use kitchen timer with large clear display and magnetic backing. Alarm volume is often too quiet, and some find the lack of hour setting and no off switch inconvenient. Overall good value and reliable.

Meets all our requirements
We purchased this to replace one that has gone on "for ages".It is easy to read from any point in the kitchen and can be heard above the "Hissing" of the pessure cooker ,the fan oven and the extactor fan at 'full tilt!

Same and effective
Bought this to replace an Alexa - is small and intrusive, has magnet to attach to fridge is basic which is what we wanted, set the time and off it goes, the sound is loud enough without being to loud, have used a few times and it meets our requirements, looks solid enough to last, reasonably priced and able to use nectar points too

Easy and simple to use
Simple enough kitchen timer (handy as I normally forget to set a timer on the phone). The magnet is not great though. First one i collected had a faulty display and was replaced the next day by a visit to the store. So far this ones been ok ..

LUSH
Great time but too pricey for me
This is the class act of cooking timers and the name speaks volumes of quality and integrity But I wasn’t happy with the price I paid for it because in my local pound store they had lots on sale for £1.99 Had I had waited until I had a chance to look around I’d have never have paid this much for a Mare cooking timer :-(
