Product Description

Apple shape egg timer for up to 60 minutes.
Amazon.com Review

This charming red-apple timer will brighten up your kitchen counter while it keeps your cookies, cakes, roasts, and casseroles from burning. The ringing tone will remind you to take your pie out of the oven or check your pasta on the stove. The timer works best when timing longer intervals--the chime is triggered mechanically, and units of less than 10 minutes don't trip the ringer accurately--but this food-themed timer is a cheery way to time most kitchen tasks. --Julija Gelazis

The perfect item that we needed, arrived in perfect condition. We will use this timer in our upcoming Back to School party, and give it away as a door prize.

It's very cute, but it didn't work - you'd wind it up and it would just sit there, not moving, despite all sorts of prodding. I opened it up and managed to pry a metal coil away from the plastic casing, against which it seemed to be rubbing. It worked for a couple of weeks after that, but eventually went back to not working. Too bad...

Very cute, worked for a little while, but when it fell off the bathroom vanity, that was that. It never worked again. Not that you should throw your timers around or anything, but I think a timer should be worth at least one fall, don't you?
One bad apple! - Reviewed on 2004-10-12

If you want something that looks like an apple, I suggest you buy a real apple.

If you want a kitchen timer, (something that reminds you when the time is up) then this product is definitely NOT for you. We were extremely disappointed that it doesn't make any sound whatsoever when the time is up.

However, it did make a pleasing smash noise when we threw it out of the window! ;-)
