Polder Digital Hourglass Kitchen Timer, Red Review

Revised Jan 2010 - Well, my replacement timer has been working fine. No more reviews on this.
Revised October 16, 2009 - It broke today! - I'll try another one. I hope this was a quirk.
OK - so kitchen timers should just work, and this one is OK. It is a bit quirky.
Downsides
- The display is a little hard to read due to glare when in direct light.
- The time "+" or "-" buttons are a bit stiff, and you have to hold them down for too long to get the time to increment without multiple pushes.
Upsides -
- The darn thing is just fun to have around and play with.
- The alarm is nice and loud and gives you a few bursts at a lower volume first so it won't surprise you if you are right next to it.
- You can't lose it! The bright red color is really easy to spot in a drawer.
Overall, I like it and use it regularly.
