26'' Extra Large Home Gym Timer Clock, Programable Workout Interval Timer, Digital Wall Clock, with 7-Color Night Light, 8 Alarm Clocks, Calendar/Temperature, Countdown & Stopwatch (Red)

This timer is great for a home gym or for a large fitness studio. The display is huge and visible from a distance, and the alarm is loud enough to hear during intense workouts. I set it up in my garage and can hear the alarm go off, even when I'm half a mile away from it.One of its best features is the wide range of timer options that allowed me to customize my workout intervals precisely. To program it, is not complicated but there is definitely a learning curve. I spent almost an hour experimenting with the device to fully grasp its functionality, and I'm still referring back to the instructions occasionally.

I have another version of this where the two leftmost characters (usually digits) are blue, not red; that's fine when you want to highlight the clock/timer's mode (like up/down or special workout), but I find it distracting when just looking at the time. This clock is all red, and I use it as a plain clock much more than in any of its many special modes. Big display is great. On the hour and half-hour you can see more than the time such as weekday, year, and temperature, and optionally get a beep. Don't lose the remote; the clock itself doesn't have the buttons you need to control it, but the remote sure does: set time, set alarms, brightness, volume, workout modes, sleep mode, night light on/off/color, and more. I only found one bug, and I didn't think I would since I'd reported it and it was acknowledged and the description said "updated": 24-hour mode is perfect, but in 12-hour mode, the hour between midnight and 12:59;59 AM is displayed as 0:00:00 through 0:59:59. (Also, I didn't find a user guide in this package, but the one from the 2-color version I got before applies to this, so I didn't request one. My past experience with customer service was very good, so I'm sure they would have sent me a PDF if I'd asked.)

Large enough to see, loud enough to hear. Has many options as far as timers go. Its not difficult to program, but will take quite some time to get the hang of. The directions arent the best, but also not the worst. I played around with it for about an hour to get it down and fully understand it. Im still getting used to it, and have to refer back to the directions, so dont throw them away. Its way better than relying on my iphone, which I cannot see or hear when Im in the middle of a workout.

Most importantly, I love the looks and functionality of this clock. I use it in my garage gym, and it's huge and easy to see, as well as bright. I'm able to follow the directions for all of the programming.Pros:+Large display, draws the eye+Bright Clear Colors+Customizable light strip+Highly ProgramableCons:-Haven't Figured out how to change from Celsius-Remote is not perfectly dependable. You have to press many times and aim perfectly to get it to respond.-USB plug sticks directly out from wall. Would benefit from a "wall-hugging" style of USB plug. In my case, it sticks directly out in a high-traffic location. I will likely need to replace the USB plug with a wall hugging format at some point.Other than that the little annoyances above, I love this clock and it's a great addition to my garage gym.

My wife exercises every morning in our media room. She does a bunch of sets, each lasting 10 minutes. She uses the count up timer to keep track. Very simple for her to “program”. We set the timer for 60 minutes, which it remembers from session to session. The date and time function are one time settings.Now each morning, she presses “power”, “Up” and the “Start”. After a 10 second count down, the timer starts. When she’s finished, she presses “power” again, the display goes off, and it is ready for tomorrow.This thing is big. It could be read across a gym! She really likes it.

This is a great gym timer and clock. It is very simple to program. Others have said the temp is only in Celsius, but I'm fine with that. I leave mine that way anyway as people tend to comment on the temp being hot or cold or whatever when they see a reminder on the wall, so I prefer it not being a handy temp. The clock is easy to read. The remote works great. This is perfect for a home gym or professional gym. I easily recommend this to anyone with a need.
