I bought the Time Stack because it has 4 individual timers in one timer and got to use 3 of them recently to ensure stuff cooked right timewise so things didn't get under or over cooked. While I didn't do it to match up the end times, it did the job either way and was glad I got the time stack. It's easy to use and you do need to realize you do not have direct access to the hours, seconds or minutes, rather to set 20:00, you just need to press 20, then 2 more 0's to set the time, and hit the start/stop button for the timer you want. I like that timer 1 gets a single beep and has an amber LED that also flashes. Timer 2 is 2 beeps together and it has a different colored LED that also flashes, this way, you can differentiate which timer is beeping at either a glance or audibly. It's easy to use and it's reasonably loud when it's in another room. The night I used the 3 timers on the time stack, one of the things I was cooking was Farro. it's from Red Mill and I was using the stovetop method and you can just cook the Farro in water or stock for 30 minutes, or soak overnight in the fridge and then cook for 10 minutes (did not soak, so 30 minutes) and I forget the rest, but it did help with keeping track of stuff while cooking. I got purple as I've always liked the color, but sadly, the website does not show the color well and it comes off as an odd shade of purple, but in reality, it's closer to a true purple in person once you open the package up. I like the color. I also have the Thermopen One, in red and love that. A few years ago, had a yellow base Thermopen that developed a bad connection at the probe where it attached/rotated at the body, but worked once I got the connection to work, but eventually replaced it, and by then, the base Thermopen was discontinued and the Thermopen one was the now base Thermopen. So far, love both.
