Classic Clock Wooden

This chess clock is solidly built and does everything you need. It is easy to use and set up. Time setting is easy but those instructions need to be clearer.

Works great! The wood finish looks nice!

Works great, multiple options (count up, count down…)

The clock itself works fantastic! Does indeed do everything that's mentioned in the product description. I can't speak on the durability yet but the clock has a good feel to it and looks great along with our wooden chessboard set. Literally the only problem isn't with the Clock itself, but the instructions. The most common question in these Amazon reviews is how to get the clock to go in "Countdown" mode. The instructions are confusing and even the seller in the Q&A section doesn't answer the question properly. My daughter and I spent 20 minutes trying to figure out how to get the clock go in Countdown mode, we treated it as a brain / engineering puzzle and we got it to work! *** HOW TO GET THE CLOCK IN COUNTDOWN MODE *** It's actually very simple once you know what to do. You need to power-off the clock and then power-on the clock again. Then you follow the instructions in the manual. So to break it down: 1. Turn off clock, then turn on clock 2. Hold the pause/play button for 3 seconds to enter set time mode 3. Use the + or - buttons to configure the exact number for the hour/minute/second you want and then Tap the pause/play button to move to the next option. 4. Just keep Taping the pause/play button to scroll through all the options including bonus time. 5. Once you're happy with the settings, hold the pause/play button for 3 seconds. Your Countdown time is now set. 6. Tap the pause/play button to begin the actual Countdown when you're ready to play. You also don't need to do these steps every time if you're going to play with the same game time. For example, let's say you were playing a 20 minute game and then finished it. To start a new 20 minute game, simply turn off and turn on the Clock. From there, just Tap the play/pause button and the Countdown will begin immediately with the same 20 minute game settings. It actually works very well once you know what to do, but the problem is the instructions don't have half the information I mentioned or lack the clarity. This can make it appear the Clock doesn't work correctly if you try to follow their confusing instructions. But hopefully this review will help some people with their purchase because this is an excellent clock marred by poor instructions.

Once I read the instructions, it was super easy to use. Love playing with this. I think I can't go back to un-timed chess! Needs one AA battery, not included.

perfect for kids to practice time control in chess!

Does the job

recently purchased a digital chess clock and I am extremely happy with my purchase. This clock has taken my chess game to the next level and made it more enjoyable than ever before. The clock is easy to set up and has multiple modes to choose from. I particularly like the option to play with time controls, which adds a new level of excitement and strategy to the game. My daughter and I have been having a blast playing chess with this clock. It has become a regular part of our routine and has helped us both improve our game. I have to admit, my daughter has been consistently beating me since we started using this clock, but that's just a testament to how much we both enjoy using it. The quality of the clock is excellent and it has held up well after multiple uses. It is also easy to transport, which makes it perfect for taking to tournaments or playing on the go. Overall, I highly recommend this digital chess clock to any chess enthusiast looking to enhance their game. It has brought a new level of excitement to our matches and has become an essential part of our chess routine.
