Product Specs
Never liked chess clocks until this one came along. It, like Chess House, is superb.
Recently bought a clock that is overcomplicated. I an no good when it comes to reading complex instructions and other things. This clock is so simple that even I managed to learn how to use it:) 5 stars
Teaching my wife to play. She is getting good. So adding little stress to the game will add some pressure! This timer is perfect for this without fancy time controls, just a great tool to add an edge to the game. The service staff is pro active making my choice an easy one!
If your situation is similar, you can't make a better choice! Now maybe I'll win!!
Yes, it is a basic timer. You put in the battery, turn it on, and start playing a 15 minute round (factory set 15 minutes but you can adjust up or down). I was able to explain the concept of time management to my 8 year-old grandson with this timer. A straight forward simple, sturdy, compact clock, a great value for the price. We're trying to start a chess club at his school and we will recommend the DGT 1001.

Chess clock looked like it would be helpful addition to the chess board I bought for my Grandson, and he loved it
Thank You Mike Pellagrini
Had one major issue with it, you can't put different times on each side. So I was unable to use at the U.S.A. WiF CON in California. Didn't realize that when I bought it.
It's important to understand the design goal of this clock and the intended user. This clock is meant to be one of the easiest clock to operate so that young and old can use it without hassle. It is a great for kids and schools that don't require tournament settings and need the clocks to be easy to use. This necessarily requires that it lacks the complexity of other clocks. The manual (linked in the product description) notes that the clock sets the time for both sides.
I enjoy the ease of setting the time on the clocks without using to much brain power, which I can save the game itself! I would recommend them!
Excellent service. Quickly mailed. Durable clock.
Timer works as described. Great timer that doesn't break the bank yet still works great!! Thanks chess house!!
I am very pleased with the chess timers.
It is a decent clock. It only requires 1 AA battery, but it does not have any increment settings or modes. I rated it 3 stars because I feel like the price could come down a bit.
We receive this product ahead of scheduled time. thank you.

Inexpenseive and fits the need!
Using it for chess AND because we have a problem child who takes forever on his turn in Settlers of Catan! I'm beginning to find a lot of potential here! Seriously, a good clock for the money.
It's perfect --- exactly what I wanted.
Love this. We use it for Scrabble and it is easy and doesn't cheat.
Too small for me.
Easy to use. Perfect for us.
The clock work great! Our program starts off with 5 years of age and are able to use the clock with minimum help.
It does not allow to play with increase or delay.
This model DGT 1001 is intentionally without extra features - this keeps it simple by design. Look at DGT 1002 and others for special timing.
Bought one for myself and one for a friend who travels a lot and wanted something small light and simple.

They arrived in good shape, and though I only tested 2 of the 5 initially, they both worked great. They had batteries included which I hadn't noticed, but am pleased.
Good end to end servicing
Nice packaging, nice colors, so far I opened one them and it works.
Thank you
This is a basic chess clock that works as advertised. This model has no "delay" function, so it may not be suitable if you wanted to play in a chess federation tournament, but for my purposes, family and friend's games of chess, scrabble, and word jumble, all the functions it does have are just fine. It does count down for chess and scrabble, count up for jumble, and "pause" to get some potato chips for emergencies. Shipping was prompt.
Clocks arrived on scheduled delivery date. Well packaged and they were intact.
I am not into Chess myself, but purchased this item so that I could record my time spent "learning online"!
This has a count-UP as well as a count-DOWN and records more than 1 hr... I assume from the digits that the maximum count-UP is 9hrs 59min 59sec - which suits me just fine (I can record "work" and "break" time with no problem)!
I have run this for nearly 2 hrs now and am happy with the results.
At the touch of a button you can record two opposing times (in my case... work & break).
BRILLIANT!
counting down- what is the minimum time I can use to start the countdown? [Using scrabble, we give each other 2 minutes to place a letter.]
Jack, the minimum for this clock is less than a minute, thanks for checking in!
