Reviews for Taylor 5839N Digital 4 Channel 10 Hour Commercial Kitchen Timer

I have read all the reviews on this timer and they ALL are correct. It IS a good timer until it starts to flake out. We lost sensitivity on the #1 button first, then one day it just started beeping (had to take the batteries out). Put new batteries in and it worked again for about another month. Just yesterday it was timing and froze! (we lost a batch of fries!) Put new batteries in again thinking it would help, it timed 1 item and now nothing works! It is a great little 4 event timer, and I guess you get what you pay for. It's still a whole lot cheaper than spending a ton on a real one! So I guess spending a little bit every other year on a timer will just have to work for us :) (I will buy a backup one now, because when you loose your timer in a busy restaurant.....well.....you know what happens)

I purchased this timer on March 3, 2016. The + button for the minutes has already stopped working, which makes it useless for me. What a waste of money. I will not be ordering this timer again!

We bought two of these timers and we're so happy with them very loud and accurate. Until I'm one the stop button stopped working and on the other the minute Plus button stopped working I don't think I will buy the same one I think I'm going to buy the Step Up

We purchased this timer almost 2 year ago, but it is now broken. The buttons have stopped working, a common occurrence with this item based on the reviews. Also, the door covering the batteries is flimsy. It is overall durable, but only has a one year warranty. Not built to last unfortunately.

Taylor makes great timers. I use these everyday and it works perfect. Very easy to set the time and it remembers the time so that way you can keep cooking.

Great little timer. Multiple timing has really made things easier for "holiday baking & cooking".

Compact, reliable, accurate and has multiple timer to remind multiple prep, cooking and cooling. Great investment for sure

This is a great timer and works well... until it doesn't. My business has gone through about 6 of these in the last two years. It gets very heavy use but it is not abused and it still malfunctions routinely. But since they're so cheap, we just end up disposing of the broken one and replacing it with a new one. Again, when it works, it really works well. But it will definitely break on you eventually.

Couldn’t do without it!

Great timer to have.

I don’t know how but by barely putting any pressure on the screws that hold the battery cover on the back… it broke the screw hole. It’s still holding together but I was very surprised it happened just out of the box. Surely that breaking doesn’t speak much about this product’s functionality but it for sure is a weak type of plastic. Treat with extreme care. I fear that if it falls it might shatter easily. Doesn’t inspire confidence in it being labeled a “Commercial”

This time works as it should. Having multiple timers is a great feature to have in a busy kitchen environment. I highly recommend this timer.

Purchased two of these timers over a year ago and they are incredibly durable. They’ve gotten wet and work perfectly. They’re intuitive and easy to use. Also, the adjustable volume goes from almost silent to extremely loud which is perfect for noisy environments such as our.

We absolutely love these - especially the feature that we can turn down the volume so it doesn't squawk so awful loud that you can hear it in the dining room.

Kitchen times is nice and loud. Being able to control the volume is nice. Only thing i wasnt a fan of was not really having a easy memory function on the time. But it works well!

Looking for a heavy duty timer for your commercial kitchen. This one stands heads and shoulders above all other timers out there, and it is a great price.

We have 1/2 dozen timers, and this is the one everyone fights over. It has a loud timer, so if you are in a different room, you can hear it.

Great timer, easy to set and keep eye on multiple different things cooking st once. Can be set very loud so wherever you are in the building it can be heard. Have multiple of these, cant be beat for the price. Only complaint is the quietest setting is still loud

This is the kitchen referee. It can keep track of four different times, has a loud beep, and can take a good beating from daily use. Highly recommended.

Best timer ever!!! I had previously ordered one for a kitchen I managed. My chef's loved it!! Easy to set, perfect when you have four items cooking at once. Very durable, easy to clean, light weight and can be heard in a noisy kitchen!!!

We purchased this Taylor Digital 4 Channel Commercial Kitchen Timer a few years ago and it has never given us any trouble, except to change the batteries. It is easy to distinguish between the 4 timers and is loud enough to be heard above all the ambient noise in the bakery. (It is even louder than our rack oven timer). We would definitely purchase again.

The timer works great. Our cooks use it all the time to time things in the oven. The quality is great and the price is reasonable

Works great and having 4 timers in one place is so useful. Great tool for the kitchen not sure how we managed without it before!

Love the option for multiple timers. The buzzer is very loud and can easily be heard even if our cook steps out of the kitchen for a minute.

Love this timer. It's multiple programmed functions ensure that items are cooked precisely every time, and it's easy to use so my cooks actually use it.

Purchased for use in a Commercial bakery after other timers broke shortly after purchase. This item holds up very well and has performed for many months with no issue at all.

This timer is fantastic...however, I noticed the start button is starting to wear out to the point where you have to press it 3-5 times for it to stop beeping at you. It has been such a life saver when it comes to food wastage (over cooking) that I have no problem buying another one again after the 2 years of use I've had out of it.... just wish it was more durable.

Loud enough to hear no matter where I am in the store. having 4 timers is super helpful and it's easy to read which of the timers is going off at any time.

The Taylor Digital 4 Channel Commercial Kitchen Timer is easy to use and extremely audible even on its lowest setting. You will not miss these distinctive alarms. This timer can be wall mounted.

This timer is perfect for a busy kitchen. It is extremely loud, but the volume can also be adjusted. It has 4 separate timers! Also can withstand being dropped.

I have had this timer in the past, I love this unit. But, I love the price I paid better, I will recommend this to everyone

The Taylor timer works exceptionally well. This is our second timer since the first one is in use constantly. We needed this in a different part of the kitchen.

LOVE this little timer. It was packaged very well, came with batteries and mounting screws. Easy to setup and program. I can use it without looking at it already and I've only had it a week. The price is amazing for what you get.

This timer is really easy to use and very loud. It has holes on the back to hang on a wall and the handles allow it to rest upright in convenient locations around the kitchen.

This timer is LOUD! And that is a good thing. We had issues with quiet timers not getting enough attention in a busy kitchen. Problem solved.

Ordered 14 of these for locations. Love the fact that you can time four products at one time. Greatly increases the quality of the products we are serving.

I bought the 1st one months ago and quickly bought 2 more. This is the only timer that has survived our kitchen and can be heard from anywhere so food doesn't overcook. Love, love this timer. Don't waste your $ on cheaper ones.

Great timer! We use this for our kitchen and it has the perfect high pitch for the entire kitchen to hear when it rings. It was great during our rush!

This is a good and very durable timer. It has the options we need. It would have been very nice though if you could store the times in it permanently instead of having only the last used time.
