dretec Digital Timer Water Proof Shower Timer Shower Clock Bathroom Magnetic Backing Silver Black Officially Tested in Japan (1starter Lithium Battery Included)

Works great and easy for kids to use. Kids used to take forever to shower. Now they set the timer and are out in 10 minutes or less. Having the visual count down in the shower helps. The alarm is loud enough to hear over the water, but not too loud.

If you are the type of person that loses track of reality under a hot shower and feel guilty about the water usage (or sad about the water bill) then this is the perfect device! It is waterproof, and I have used it for about 2 months now with no issues. It came with the battery and everything! Not sure how long it will last, but so far so good. I like that I don't have to configure a specific time every run, I just use the 10 minute setting and it reloads the same time once it runs out so all I have to do is hit start and I'm good to go. The beeping does last for longer than I would ideally like, but it does turn off by itself if you don't manually do it yourself. So if I take an especially short shower, I don't have to go back to turn off the alarm. Another big plus is that now I can actually know how long I'm leaving on certain products, which is great for specific skincare, etc

When I took this timer out of the package, the buttons were not functional (the membrane dome shape of each button was depressed) and it was not responding to any of the key presses - perhaps due to the packaging. A few days later I was about to make a return claim, but after it had been sitting out of the packaging, all but one of the buttons returned to normal shape except for the START|STOP button. However, the unit became functional. I handed over to my 8 yr old daughter who immediately figured out how to use it and was able to set the time using the included instructions. It's not the highest quality device, but at this price point is a decent value. The small stand also broke as soon as I tried to unfold it, so for quality it gets only 3 stars. The water resistance has not been tested so I can't comment on that yet.

I bought this for my daughter to help limit shower time, especially since we’re on a septic system at our cabin. It works really well and is easy for her to use. This is our third one only because it keeps getting dropped in the tub. Eventually it will break if you drop it enough, but until then it lasts a long time and does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

I work in aquatics and teach a lot of swim lessons. One of my weaknesses, that hasn’t improved over the years of experience, is time management, so I went looking for a timer/alarm to help. I needed something that was easy to set with wet hands (no teeeeeeny tiny buttons), that counted down, that had a solidly loud alarm (needed to hear it from a few yards away, over moderate noise of indoor pool including kiddos, pool gutter, and HVAC), and ACTUALLY WATERPROOF. Not “water resistant,” not “waterproof - unless submerged” — something I could accidentally drop in the pool, leave for some minutes if needed, and still come out working. I couldn’t find a wristwatch to fit my needs that was low cost and I don’t like watches much anyway (sensory issues). Enter: this timer. After months of daily use, I am happy to share this timer holds up. I do usually have it on the edge of the pool during class, not submerged constantly, but it does frequently submerge for minutes at a time. (I often put it in my pocket while I’m in the pool or accidentally drop it to the bottom.) It lives at the pool, so it doesn’t have a chance to sit somewhere cool and dry when it’s not in use. None of this has deterred it. The buttons are large and easy to read and press. They aren’t very tactile, but the timer does beep every time you press one, so there is confirmation the button actually worked. The alarm itself is loud enough I can hear it anywhere from 15 yards away (on a lower noise day) to 3 yards (noise loud enough I can’t hear myself think). If I and the timer are submerged, I can hear the alarm within at least 5 feet. It manages to be easily audible but does NOT scare or overwhelm me either, which is a huge plus. The one thing that may be of concern to some is the magnet on the back. Being a magnet, it has completely rusted over and a top layer definitely fell away. The magnet DOES still work, just as well as when it arrived. But I know rust stains can be a pain, so that is something to look out for. If and when this guy gives out (or a particularly intense toddler finally manages to crack it), I’ll update this review. For now, it works wonderful and does exactly what I need very well. ETA: Updating to say the timer did fail about two months ago. (I believe it was largely because the 8yo I let regularly borrow it always held it submerged, for 30+ mins at a time.) One and then eventually most of the buttons stopped working. There was a rattling noise from inside the timer also, but this was there before the buttons failed. So I suspect something(s) internal rusted. All this said — it had a great run and I have gladly purchased two more (one for each pool I teach at). But I should probably label mine since I’ve seen other aquatics professionals using the exact same timer recently! 😅

The alarm sound is totally useless because it it so quite. You can hear it if you hold it up to your ear. It doesn't have any automatic shut-off so it eats through batteries. lasted about 2 months now its dead. I would NEVER order again.

love it! keep this in my shower and it’s totally waterproof and works great. set up instructions were easy to follow and it’s super easy to use.

I waited to post a review, because I wanted to ensure the feedback was accurate. Magnet: super, does not slide around on the fridge but holds well. Even when you’re pressing the buttons it’s steadfast. It is a small magnet, but it does the job. Readability: it’s visible and easy to read. I think this is a good size for the timer clock. Waterproof: we have this in the shower. The one we have in the shower does not leave the shower in a multi person home, and the bathroom really holds humidity and doesn’t vent well. So it’s taking some heavy water use, but still not the same as a pool. However I’m not showing any rust or any issues at all and it works perfect for our need! Really wonderful execution. Only drawback, in my opinion, is there is no way to turn it off- it’s always on. I love the options for the timer settings, and the quick buttons to add time, but why is there not an auto sleep function, and a wake button or just a setting where when you do press a button it wakes up the device? Either way this is a very successful and very durable waterproof timer and works great in the kitchen for cooking as well! (I bought 2 of these).

Really good timer, easy buttons, big numbers, loud and clear. Ideal for saving water in the shower by putting yourself on a timer. Or for products that need to stay in your hair or on your skin for an amount of time. Sticks to the wall tiles by suction cup

Very durable

Ya hace un año que lo tengo en mi baño y sigue funcionando muy bien. Lo puse ahí para que mi familia se diera cuenta cuanto tiempo tardan bañandose.

J'ai acheté le minuteur pour que mes enfants arrêtent de prendre des douches de 20 minutes et soient plus autonome. Je l'ai attaché avec un fil de pêche transparent et il est suspendu exactement à la bonne hauteur pour qu'il le voit. Super facile d'utilisation, j'ai setter le temps voulu et ils n'ont qu'à peser sur un bouton pour que le compte à rebours démarre. Quand le temps est écoulé, il y a une alarme sonore qu'on peut entendre même dans la pièce d'à côté. 100% résistant à l'eau, je l'ai depuis un an et je n'ai pas encore changé la batterie et il reste allumé en permanence. À mon avis c'est le seul point faible... Idéalement si il pouvait s'éteindre tout seul après 5 minutes par exemple, la batterie pourrait durer très longtemps. Bref, je suis très satisfait car les enfants ne s'éternisent pas dans la douche et on peut donc économiser sur la facture d'électricité.

Gut! Nutze ich in der Dusche um die Einwirkzeiten zu überwachen. Ist Wasserdicht und so wie beschrieben
