Beep, beep, beep agggggg!
The Scrabble timer is great little thing at a great price (4.99). My friend bought me this as an early christmas present. We both love scrabble and when playing we were taking too long to make up a word. The Scrabble timer has 3 settings 3 mins, 2 mins and 1 mins. When you set the time for 1 min and press the big red button it beeps (it really isn`t that loud to disturb people at night) and flashes to let you know countdown has begun when it reaches 30 secs it will beep and flashes again then when it reaches 10 secs it will beep and flashes every sec. Believe me it makes you panic and you`re almost pulling out your hair when you can`t think of a word then you have to miss your turn. The Scrabble timer really does keep you alert it makes things quicker and more interesting. Timer needs 2 AA batteries and you have to unscrew a tiny screw I found this to be no problem at all. Comes with instructions leaflet.
Rather old fashioned
I was a bit disappointed with this. It does function well in the sense that it tells you when the selcted time period is up and your turn has ended (and gives some handy warning beeps in advance,) but I didn't like having to unscrew part of the base of it to put the batteries in and to be honest I thought that the feel and beeps of the product were rather old-fashioned. I would have liked to see how much time I had left on my turn too. The loud beeps also aren't ideal for playing late at night. All this said, I do use the timer as my boyfriend wouldn't play Scrabble with me otherwise as I take too long to think what word to choose!
