West Bend 40053 Questions and Answers


#1 Does it count up?

No. Only counts down from what amount of time that you set. But's nice to have three counters, plus the clock feature.

#2 Does this timer have a minutes and seconds capability that you can set??

Yes, it has minutes you can set.
Yes, it has seconds you can set.
Example: To set timer for 20 minutes you push button 2; then three zeros. Therefore, you push the buttons for twenty (20) minutes this way:
2 - 0 - 0 - 0.

#3 Is the magnet big enough to keep it sturdy when you press the buttons or does it get wobbly when you press?

Because the magnet is on to the "stand" in the back, the timer isn't flat against the stove or fridge. You can't really use the buttons while the timer is magnetically attached to stove or refrigerator.

#4 Does this timer go up to 100 minutes or hours? The description above is not clear which one. Thanks!

Yes the timer will go up to 100 hours, however, not minutes. You would have to set it for one hour, 40 minutes to get 100 minutes.
