Norpro 3-Minute Glass Hourglass Sand Timer with Natural Wood Base

I have been raising boy's for 19 years now, and I have been using 3 minute timers for almost 16 of them as a tooth brushing timer. Because all of my boy's love to brush for 30 seconds, run out of the bathroom, and declare the job done! And I have been through all kinds of timers! Twist ones, hopping ones, loud ones, quiet ones, solar ones, battery/ plug in ones... You get the picture. Well when you throw a boy into the bathroom with tooth paste, and water you are going to burn through some timers! Believe Me! BUT a no nonsense 3 minute sand timer is nearly perfect for use! I have to say nearly because just when you think you've seen it all kids find a new way to surprise you! Lol! However I really like this timer because the smaller size means there is not a large exposed glass surface, and there's no problem with it taking up space! I will be buying another of these should it "Disappear" with that mysterious kid "Not Me". ** I DO RECOMMEND for any 3 minute time jobs you have, and want a nice looking no frills timer for them. It has also been easy to clean partially due to the light finish it has on it. **P.s. I randomly check to be sure the timer is still accurate (don't forget I have boy's + that mystery kid), and it is still keeping 3 minutes time almost a year later.

Works well and well made

Perfect accessory to any mahjong game to help slow players from dragging down the game. Gets it’s point action quickly!

The time is really nice. High quality I would say. However when we actually timed the timer it took 3 minutes and 30 seconds.

Great for boiled eggs

I bought tis 3 minute timer as it is very helpful when you are cooking especially making a cake. As instructions read eat for 3 minutes!! So much easier than setting the big timer. It is cute, well made, so inexpensive & accurate

Works good
