This timer, besides its aesthetic qualities, is very flexible. It is a hundred times all these gadgets Electr (on) ic hard and rigid as to the setting of waiting times. This allows in a gesture to obtain the desired time and even change the running. Moreover the lack of battery is good for the environment. Magnetic, it moves to the first comer metallic element. Relatively compact, it can be transported with you rather than being nailed to listening distance, necessarily limited. I am delighted with this acquisition, received quickly, as always.
