GymbossInterval Timer and Stopwatch - Violet/Pink Metallic Gloss

Highly recommend for people who want to start basic run training or just starting to get fit. Simple and keeps you on target.

Several months ago I bought a pricey running watch for the specific purpose of using the interval timer. The watch worked fine, and was easy to use, but the timer beep was very quiet, and if there was any noise or traffic sounds near me, I was unable to hear the beeps at all. Since the timer was the primary reason for me purchasing the watch, it became useless to me. I saw the Gymboss Interval Timer on a running site, and later found it on Amazon, and decided to give it a try. It was very easy to set up and use. I love that it has an option for a quiet or loud beep volume, and best of all, it also has a vibrate option, which is a great alternative to the beeper. You can also use both beep and vibrate if you choose to do so. I also appreciate the large clear display. This item arrived sooner than promised. This is a purchase I am glad I made.

When my Down’s syndrome sister became ill, she had no appetite. We needed to feed her small amounts often. This was perfect for that! I was able to set the minutes to how often I wanted to feed her and have it set so it constantly reminds me when her next feeding is. So much easier than having to watch the clock, plus you can clip it on so you can do other things. I also set the alarm to 9 seconds so I wouldn’t miss hearing it if I didn’t clip it on.

You must buy the silicon cover or your sweat or rain will fry the unit. I had one replaced by the company under warrant and was informed that a cover must be used. Why not sell the cover with the unit then?? Unfortunately the 2nd unit crapped out after 2 years and constant use. The plastic fell apart around the buttons. Not sure if this is just cheap plastic or if the silicon cover kept moisture trapped near the buttons and broke it down. If this lasted longer I would give it 5 stars. Love the simple intervals, loudness of beeps and the vibrate function when I am wearing ear pods. It just needs to last longer.

It serves the purpose it was designed for.

This is my second time purchasing a Gymboss Timer, my first one died after years of very heavy use. I use mine for interval training on my runs. I like the options for the timer beeps, the ability to set two different timers, and how compact it is. It's small enough that I can clip it to my sports bra strap and have no issues with bouncing or impairing my movement. Will continue to purchase these timers!

Use it for run walk excerise

This item works fine except the side button is very difficult to press. Extremely annoying. I do not recommend this item
