GE 15071 7-Day Smart Digital Timer, White

Pros:- easy to install, ~5mins- fits exactly in standard socket- good priceCons:- bad display, need a flashlight to read- buttons are tiny and close to each other and have to press 2 buttons at the same time to set the dateUpdate 03/13/16: it stopped working just after 1 month, trying to return it

I can't say enough good things about this one. Exceptionally ingenious. Compact. Versatile. Highly programmable. Easy to install. Great instructions. The cover for the buttons doubles as a button switch. Perfect.

Used on my porch light and it's easy to set, keeps very good time and works well.

Requires neutral. Not suitable for most applications.

It was great when it was working, I programmed easily enough and it worked great and less than two months since I bought it stopped working. I bought this for my outdoor lights and it seems the fuse blew because the screen is blank and just out of nowhere my outside lights won't turn off now anymore.

Don't cheap out, spend a few extra dollars for a product that works. The scheduler doesn't work this thing turned on and off all day and night about every 15 to 20 minutes, I finally turned of the scheduler and just have it fill the hole from the old time and it's nice to have a clock by the shower. that's about it. Ge really dropped the ball on this one. I should have listened to the other commenters, I guess i hoped I be the exception, I was WRONG.

I purchased this item almost 2 years ago. I use timers all over my house so I kept it as a spare. I happened to finally need it to replace one of my timers and when the electrician opened the package, the tabs inside the timer were broken and the timer case fell apart. This item was securely kept over the time I had it and was securely factory sealed. No reason for it to have been broken unless it was packaged that way. It was rather expensive, and I don't believe it can be returned.So my advice to anyone buying anything similar, is to open the package even if you don't need to use it immediately and check that all is in usable condition.

Great timer. I have purchased two of these timers (same brand and model) previously and they work excellent. The first one has been in use continuously for more than two years.
