Summary: functional
Comment: I purchased this item as I also train at home. I am a boxer and timed rounds are important. I like the features, but the only draw back is the alarm is not very loud. So if you are on the speed bag or really hitting the heavy bag it it hard to hear the alarm. Otherwise it serves it's purpose.

Summary: Works Fine for Me
Comment: I've used this timer on-and-off for about a year, and I'm surprised about all the negative reviews. It works just fine for my purposes.
The timer is simple but does what it's supposed to - time rounds. It hasn't broken even after being dropped a coupled of times. And I haven't had to change the batteries ever.
This timer is a big help in my personal bag-training workout because without it I wouldn't know when a round ends. It's probably not loud enough for doing more than personal bag work, but it works great for that.
The reason it only gets 4 stars is that due to its small size it's hard to hit the on/off button while wearing gloves, so pausing can be difficult.

Summary: Just Plain Bad Engineering
Comment: As soon as I received my Timer and began checking it out, I realized right away just how poorly this thing was made. The "Rest" feature, the setting to determine how long you have to rest between rounds, has two options, 30 or 60 seconds. Mine only allows 60 seconds, regardless of which position the setting is actually on.
I truly expected much better from Everlast. I've been kickboxing for years and I have many of their products with nothing bad to say about anything else they've put their name on.
For someone who does most of his workouts at home on my own heavy and speed bags & jump rope, etc, this timer is all I thought I would need.
Very disappointed.

Summary: Pretty good
Comment: This is a basic yet functional timer.
PROS
*Flick of a switch for 2 or 3min rounds and 30 to 1 min rests. Really quick and simple way of setting number of rounds and duration
*Has a warning bell before the end of the round.
*I'd stay its pretty sturdy as i've dropped it a few times/stored it in the bottom of my bag and after 6 months of abuse and mishandling it's still ringing. Battery life seems good as well.
CONS
*The bell is pretty loud but is often drowned out by background noise during heavy work outs (ie blaring music, people screaming-haha) so for personal use you have to clip it on ur person with vibrate mode. Sadly the clip becomes easily dislodged and the arm strap gets in the way. This is no design fault just basic practicality. Not really a con as such but worth a mention.
All in all its a good, basic, portable backup timer that's easy and fast to use and is decent value for money.
Customer Rating:
Summary: poor quality
Comment: The thing never worked, right out of the package. It counts down alright, but the buzzer and vibrator do not work at all. Junk, dont waste your money.
