Review of Fox Run Retro Kitchen Timer with Magnet, Red

This is a fun little kitchen timer!Just make sure you get one that's reliable and works properly and you're good to go. Has a nice, loud bell. You can hear it in the next room unless you have your music blasting or your vacuum cleaner on.

The first one I received from Amazon would stop ticking even though I followed directions for turning the dial past the 55-minute mark and then setting it to the number of minutes I wanted. I would set it at 30 minutes or 45 minutes and it would tick briefly, then stop. But it was accurate at shorter times of 5 or 10 minutes; it would tick down and the bell would go off.

Due to its unreliability, I returned it to Amazon for an exchange of the same model.That one had the same defect.

This time I contacted the manufacturer, Fox Run Craftsmen. They sent me a replacement that has worked beautifully!

My advice is, if you get one that doesn't work, contact Fox Run Craftsmen for a replacement.

Now that I have a working one, let me say it is the cutest kitchen gadget ever! I like the fire engine red color! The size is depicted accurately as "actual size" in the photo at just about 3 inches in diameter, so it is small.The magnet is strong. It looks great on my refrigerator!

Recommended. (With above caveats.)

Review of Oxo Good Grips Silicone Oven Mitt with Magnet, Red

I own this mitt and I have been very pleased with it.I got it six months ago, and it has held up excellently through washings and rough treatment!I have not once been burned through it, and it is easy to use even when wet.The little hanger that is attached to it has also not broken, which is unusual for my pot holders-- we cook a lot and they get constant use and abuse.
The only reason I am giving it only four stars is because it is too small for my fiance's hand to fit smoothly in through the wrist area.He does have large hands, but so do a lot of tall men, and they need pot holders too!In addition, I have trouble bending the pot holder when I want to pick up something small.The plastic is just a tad thick for that.
