TK3 Pomodoro Timer Cube, Desk Productivity Timer with 5/10/30/60 Min Presets, Custom Countdown, Stopwatch, Clock, 3 Alarm, Silent, Vibrate & Sound Alert, for Task, ADHD, Study, Kitchen, Black

I like collecting items of good industrial design: Things that are useful and beautiful at the same time, and this timer fits the bill. What a fun little thing to have on my desk. It's a beautiful object, with a crisp, colorful screen that dims to better function as a background timer. It does what it's meant to: Count down, and it does so with style. It also has a clock and an automatic Pomodoro feature that they hilariously call the "Ticktime technique" as if they invented it. It even lights up a little tomato when you're using it. Haven't had a chance to test the battery life, but I'll update this review if I have any issues.

This tool does exactly what it says on the tin. I use it as a timer that isn't possible to be a distraction. If I use my phone for timers it tempts me to look at everything else on my phone. The only downside is that the buttons are not programmable for custom timers, which would be awesome. All-in-all it works every time and has had 0 issues. It also has a retro look mixed with digital.

The base is cool for figity but not really of any other use. The clock is perfect for keeping me focused and on task. Works well and the rotating screen always keeps it in the right direction.

This pomodoro clock has been a GREAT addition to my workday, keeping me on track and on task. It’s very intuitive and easy to use, and also has preset timers. Need a 10 minute countdown? Turn it so the 10 is pointing up! 30 minutes? Point 30 up. You get the idea. The pomodoro function is just as easy to use, and the 25 minutes of work followed by 5 minutes of break time works wonders for productivity. Very high quality, and the volume is just right - or it also has a vibrate setting.

It's a bit clunky to use. It only has a 24h clock, the pause doesn't work on the pomodoro, the pomodoro auto starts with each phase making it difficult to use properly for me as I'd rather it just keep beeping until i can stop what I'm doing and the base it comes with really could have used some more/better rubber bumpers to keep it from clacking so much everytime you rotate it. Overall I think it looks great though and does work, you just have to get used to the clunkiness. I imagine a chronic ADHD person will find some of this distracting enough to not use it as it really needs to be super streamlined. Some of the digital features on the screen also are a bit cluttered, again, ADHD people might find alll of it really distracting. I still like the purchase, sure beats using apps as that just tempts you to touch your phone too much and defeats the purpose.

This timer is so easy to use. We use this constantly with my son for homework!

I'm not quite sure it's worth the price I paid, especially given that the charging base is basically a plastic case with dummy buttons and could easily be removed from the product design given the little value it provides, but the main unit is very useful. I've used the cheaper (and smaller) version but I much prefer this unit for its larger display and the mechanical display that rotates when the unit is turned. It's just as useful for the Pomodoro technique as the smaller cheaper version as it only has a basic kitchen timer beep or a vibration mode. The display does get stuck sometimes, preventing the timer from triggering. It's easy to fix but perhaps an improvement that could be added to future versions. I've deducted one star for the mostly useless base and the occassionally problematic mechanically rotating display.

As a person that struggles with ADHD and anxiety, this helps me get through the workday by “chunking” time into manageable blocks. It’s cute, functional, the perfect size to sit on a desk without taking up a ton of room and very easy to use. Simply flip it to the amount of time you want to count down and it automatically starts the countdown. It’s also not so bright that it’s distracting at night or when I need to focus on the screen. Overall I love this little thing and have found it useful!
