   It’s okay, it’s inexpensive, and it works. If you want a stopwatch that starts at zero when you do laps/splits, this is not the right one. If you want one that just keeps timing, it will work fine. I also personally found it a bit bulky and would prefer a smaller one. It comes with a long thick string you can adjust and keep it around your neck. However, the string can be pulled out of the adjuster and can’t be put back in, so be careful when adjusting the string.

   UPDATE: As of June 2021, this company is spamming me with repeated attempts to bribe me to get me to remove my review. I’ve forwarded all of these to Amazon, hopefully they will do something about it.

   ORIGINAL REVIEW:

   I bought this specifically because of all the reviews saying this was extremely easy to use, but after nearly an hour of trying to follow the instructions, which are just a few sentences printed on the box, I’ve decided this timer must be defective.

   We received this on Monday afternoon, and on Tuesday evening something started beeping once per hour, which we eventually realized was this stopwatch. There were no instructions on how to turn that off and nothing about this automatically beeping once per hour, on the hour. This seems to be an independent function from the actual alarm setting, which also doesn’t seem to work properly. You can input the time for the alarm setting but you can’t turn it off or set it to nothing, apparently the alarm has to always be set and can’t be turned off, plus the once-per-hour beep is also permanent and can’t be turned off.

   Surely this is a mistake, right? I can’t imagine neither the instructions nor the description would fail to tell you something this important. And why wasn’t it beeping once an hour on Monday, and didn’t start until Tuesday? I can’t get the day of the week setting to stick, either, it’s stuck on Tuesday forever apparently, so maybe these two things are related.

   Speaking of settings being stuck, we followed the instructions on setting the date and time, but there was no way to save the setting once finished. No matter what we did, the stop and start button just cycled through setting the date and time and the set button didn’t set anything. Eventually the time set and I’m assuming the problem is that the buttons aren’t making proper contact, so it took multiple tries to get it to set.

   Once I got everything (but the day of the week) set, when I hit the start/stop button, it beeps but doesn’t do anything. I can use the mode button to get to what should be the timer, hit start/stop, but nothing. A few times I went out there to try again and found the timer running as though it had been going for 8 hours, even though the last time I reset it to zero had been 20 minutes earlier. Reset only half the time resets, which is another reason that I believe there may be an issue with the button making contact properly.

   As I was playing around with this I noticed scratches on the face and a circle on the back which almost looked like wear, so maybe I was sent a defective return. Whatever the case may be, I cannot wait to get this out of my house.

   This stopwatch is great. It’s get the job done for sure but it takes AMPLE practice to get the hang of it. The user guide is printed on the box and after several uses, I’m still getting the hang of it.
   It could be my user error because this stopwatch is capable of a lot, but it isn’t as straightforward as you might hope.
