Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Pedrini Brera Chrome TimerCustomer Review: Has Its Pluses, Your Needs May Vary Summary: 2 Stars
There is no doubt that the design of this Pedrini kitchen timer is eye-catching. But when it gets right down to it, this snazzy-looking little number may or may not suit your personal needs.Pluses: Easy to set, whether you have arthritis or are wearing enormous oven mits. When set 15+ minutes, the ring is very loud and clear, with an appealling old-fashioned bell sound. Numbers are easy to read. Minuses: The picture is misleading and the construction questionable: the handle is metal, but both the black and silver sections of the base are plastic. When set to shorter intervals, the "no ring" problem described by the previous reviewer becomes an (annoying) issue. All in all I would say I am disappointed with this item, but since I use it primarily to time family activities, it's not what I would call a soufflé-in-the-rain type catastrophe. If you are looking for an all-purpose kitchen timer, however, this is definitely not your best bet.
Description of Pedrini Brera Chrome TimerMade in Italy, this stylish chrome-and-black kitchen timer works like a charm. Calibrated in minutes up to 1 hour, its numbers are large enough to be seen across the kitchen. And you can set it for either a short or long ring. Heavy and stable on its flared, rounded base, the timer measures 3-3/4 inches in diameter and stands 3-3/4 inches tall, the sort of subtle symmetry an Italian designer strives for. It carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack
