Summary: Just Plain Bad Engineering
Comment: As soon as I received my Timer and began checking it out, I realized right away just how poorly this thing was made. The "Rest" feature, the setting to determine how long you have to rest between rounds, has two options, 30 or 60 seconds. Mine only allows 60 seconds, regardless of which position the setting is actually on.
I truly expected much better from Everlast. I've been kickboxing for years and I have many of their products with nothing bad to say about anything else they've put their name on.
For someone who does most of his workouts at home on my own heavy and speed bags & jump rope, etc, this timer is all I thought I would need.
Very disappointed.

Summary: Pretty good
Comment: This is a basic yet functional timer.
PROS
*Flick of a switch for 2 or 3min rounds and 30 to 1 min rests. Really quick and simple way of setting number of rounds and duration
*Has a warning bell before the end of the round.
*I'd stay its pretty sturdy as i've dropped it a few times/stored it in the bottom of my bag and after 6 months of abuse and mishandling it's still ringing. Battery life seems good as well.
CONS
*The bell is pretty loud but is often drowned out by background noise during heavy work outs (ie blaring music, people screaming-haha) so for personal use you have to clip it on ur person with vibrate mode. Sadly the clip becomes easily dislodged and the arm strap gets in the way. This is no design fault just basic practicality. Not really a con as such but worth a mention.
All in all its a good, basic, portable backup timer that's easy and fast to use and is decent value for money.
Customer Rating:
Summary: poor quality
Comment: The thing never worked, right out of the package. It counts down alright, but the buzzer and vibrator do not work at all. Junk, dont waste your money.
Customer Rating:
Summary: good stuff
Comment: its great. its loud, its not heavy and bulky. still havent figured out y it rings so much when its on vibrate, but o well. it gets the job done
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not worth the expense and effort.
Comment: Poorly assembled, the one I purchased did not work. I exchanged it and the second worked for several workouts, then stopped working. I exchanged that one, and the third works when I can get a battery to stay in it. The battery does not fit properly, and will often pop out, knocking the battery cover loose in the process.
When it actually works, it is marginally useful.

Ideal for workouts using heavy bags, speed bags, jump ropes, double-end bags or other type of interval training at the gym or home.
