Ratings & Reviews for Utilitech 15 -Amps 125-volt 1 -Outlet Programmable Countdown Digital Lighting Timer

Difficult to program

Read the instructions several times, but programming would not work correctly. After the 4th time it worked. Didn't do anything different but it's working correctly now.

Digital timer

Easy enough to program. gas been working fine for two weeks or so.

Utilitech 15-Amp 1-Outlet Digital Residential Plug

I do not care for this product. I never got it to work properly. I would return it if I had not lost the receipt and packaging. It was not defective. Following the instructions it would never turn on and off at the times set. Get a simplier timer if at all possible.

Never again

I have tried three of these. Two lasted less than a month, the third is still working but my hopes are not very high it will last much longer.

Very hard to follow instructions. Bought two, one worked once, second never worked right. Now both don't work. Was a waste of money

Unprogramable

I made several attempts to program timer with no success. Returned it for another model that was supposed to be easier to program. The jury is still out on the new one.

junk

Worked normally for a week but now it turns on/off whenever it wants. Junk.

Had Enough

I bought this last year - worked at first, then it stopped working. I thought maybe I hadn't followed the instructions correctly, so reset it again. Worked for a while, then stopped again. The battery symbol has flashed empty as long as I've owned it - not going to attempt opening it. Have reset it at least a dozen times because I hate returning things. It's going back this morning.

Absolute junk

If your looking for a reliable timer that you can set and forget....THIS IS NOT THE ONE !! I bought eight of these things to set candle lights in windows to all turn on at (approx.) the same time and I’ve exchanged just about every one because they keep loosing the time / settings. I’ve even gone as far as contacting the manufacturer and their customer service is WORSE than their product. I ditched all of them this year and will look for something else.

Most reliable timer ever!

I have owned several of these for the past 3 years. They sit in a 145° attic during the summer and a total of 11 months out of the year dormant. Haven't failed to keep time or function properly yet. Setup and program takes less than a minute. Plan on buying about half a dozen more this year.

Good Timer

This is the 2nd year of using these timers and I haven't had one problem. I have 15, with 14 used for Christmas and 1 all year round. I thought they were pretty easy to figure out. I wish Lowes would've kept them because I needed 4 more.

Item Fit for the Junk Yard

I followed the written instructions on three different occasions, and the device failed to operate as programmed all three times.

Unable to set an on/off time. Bought 2 neither one are functional. Unable to return since it requires scissors to get package opened and totally destroyed the package doing so. Out $$.

Not worth the paper it's package in

This timer did not work at all. Tried to program it, turned it on, and it didn't nothing. Plus, the instructions appears to be written in Chinese because it didn't make sense and it was very confusing. Don't even bother buying it.

terrible timer

purchased and returned the first one because it did not work. I would have been better off if I would have quit and returned it then. The second one has been a problem programing not worth the time and effort. Save the frustration and do not buy this product.

Great Lighting Timer

We used this in our home while we were gone on a trip and it worked perfectly. It turned our lamp on at the right time and turned it off at the correct time. We felt secure knowing that our normal routine in the evenings was still taking place while we were gone. Would highly recommend this timer to everyone.
