Brennenstuhl Digital Countdown Timer Plug Socket with LED Display - Adjustable in 12 Steps, Indoor Use, Contact Protection

This is the one to buy if you're looking for a high quality programable plug timer that can repeat. Works as advertised. Simple enough to use and program. Just looking at it, it's high quality and probably actually made in Germany. I looked at dozens of other options at a lower price point, but all the Chinese stuff is just that. Cheap rubbish. Buy this. Pay the premium. Don't regret.

This timer is good enough for what I need, and simple enough to operate.I use it to charge mobile phones and power banks.Though simple to operate, it does not support an "always on" mode, so you'd have to plug it out every time you want to power something for a duration that may be longer than 9 hours (the timer's max duration).This timer also supports a "daily repeat" mode which I never use and would have preferred not to have at all.

just what I was looking for, easy to use for instant count down, not sure how the second button works but it is not a function that I need. You can use the plug to make sure items are not left on by accident making it a great safety device. It will also save money with wasted electricity. I will be buying a few more.

Great for charging an e bike without over-charging. The only think I would like to have added would be a delay to start feature, so those of us on electricity tariffs which vary at different times of the day could set operation to come on so many hours later. I like the fact that there is no clock on these count-down timers. The repeat function is clear and would only be subject for concern if children mess about with them.

Absolutely superb unit in my view.Really easy to use.2 buttons to press for selected duration which then counts down with LEDs to "off".First button is a one off countdown.Second button does the same but then automatically repeats that behaviour daily (but not tried second button yet).When triggered on, a good click suggestive of a relay inside, is heard.Build quality feels very good.

Press and go, never forget to turn off the item, it's automatic

I bought this product for the side of my bed. I had a habit of putting my phone on charge and then falling asleep. I can now set the timer and sleep easier in the knowledge that it won't be on charge all night.It is so easy to use, plug it in, set the minutes I want to use it for and it starts immediately. I have not tested it to come on a certain time. I chose this product as it is not as bulky as the old one I have in the kitchen and doesn't greatly extend past the plug socket. It has not disappointed. Once I have tested the timing I will be replacing the one in the kitchen!

I think it’s fair to say that countdown timers are very often used for heaters and other things that get hot. This is because they can cause fires if left on and guzzle electricity. So adding a repeat function is probably the dumbest thing you could do to a countdown timer. The lights do flash when you hit repeat, but that is easily missed and I have done that at least once.I would say this is another example of marketing companies trying to design products that are all things to all people in order to maximize sales revenue.What they have actually created is :1) A dangerous countdown timer when used with heaters. If you click repeat by mistake the heater could switch on when you’re not expecting it the next day. If the kids have left coats hanging around the heater you could very quickly have a fire to deal with.2) A useless general timer. With timers you set the time the day before and leave it to do it’s job. With this if you want something switched on at 4am, you have to get up at 4am to click the repeat button. If you ever unplug it or have a power cut, you have to get up at 4am again to click the button again. I do get the use case for Christmas lights which this does seem useful for as others have said. Personally I just use the mechanical timers with segments you push in or out for my Christmas lights. They’re very easy to set and very reliable. You can also get 3 of those for the price of one of these.Probably the dumbest countdown timer I’ve seen. This is a shame as aesthetically it’s quite pleasing and if was just a countdown timer, with no repeat, I’d give it 5 stars.
