Having changed 4 different models in the last decade, from different brands and at different price levels (from 30€ to 150€), I can say that this particular model is the most value for money. It combines functions of more expensive models at a medium price. I like the timer that notifies every 30 seconds and the battery life. I don't like the feel of the device, it is somewhat light and gives you the impression that it is not well-made. Time will tell.
