EVEN BETTER than I wanted
Gorgeous. I dropped it onto a counter the second day I got it, was immensely happy it didn't affect it at all. Wonderful decor, beautiful timer. I use both of them to time my yoga antics- you could use and enjoy using these for anything. Highly recommend for self or gift.

excellent set
It's hard to find blown glass hourglasses. I love this set. They work great for an analog version of the Pomodoro method. The sand colors (red and blue in my set) are really nice. The glasses arrived well packaged and in good condition. I love the addition of the wooden bases to avoid accidental tipping although the glasses are flat enough that they can likely sit on tabletops without.

Accurate, pretty, but sand sticks to glass
The blue sand in the glass is a vibrant color, and the accuracy is fantastic - my 30-min hourglass emptied in just about 30:02. However, a bit of sand sticks to the glass for a while, which doesn't look great. This didn't happen in my last hour glass with a different manufacturer.

Work great, look great, hard to want more!
60 min at 1:00:26, VERY nice, 5 min at 4:58, also very nice!Red is nice sugar-red color, gold is shiny sparkly yellow-gold, closer to bronze than 24ct. Both leave less than 1 second of sand on upper chamber when done, falls easily with a light tap. Both glass’ feel sturdy-thickness, both wood stands are okay, not great. Good heft.I can easily see the sand streams from across the room.Shipped well padded, arrived FAST and safe.Work great, look great, hard to want more!

A gut budget timer
Cool looking replacement for a digital pomodoro timer. They look and feel like they will hold up. I also enjoy the aesthetics. Lacking a star because sand does stick to the edges, as you can see in the picture. It is not stuck there for good, though. One tap on the top and it shoots to the middle (looks cool, but mildly annoying.) Overall doesn't affect appearance or productivity of the item too much, but you will have to tap the top quite regularly. It was a good budget timer, aesthetically pleasing for the price.

Fantastic and Functional
These are fantastic for leading my online discussion groups. I use the large timer to watch my meeting and it helps me finish when the hour ends. I use the smaller timer to ask a new discussion question, every five minutes. Because my groups are video based, the sand timers are not distracting my group with noise. These are very functional for my intended use. I am pleased with the product.

Bases are unfinished
The wood for the bases is a bit rough. I’ll be sanding these down and either adding a varnish or stain. Also will add a piece of felt to both the bottom of the bases and where the hourglass sits. These are super delicate but are a nice visual time reminder for working from home.Arrived undamaged and look nice.

Very helpful
I purchased one set of these for a gift, and then decided I'd like one too and bought a second set. I think these are very cute desk decor, but functional. Some issue with accuracy, occasionally the larger one is faster than an hour. But still so very helpful setting a focus time for work/school.

Nice looking and accurate, but it does get stuck from time to time
This is a nice looking and accurate hourglass. The reason it looses two starts is that it gets stuck from time to time, defeating the purpose of having a timer. This seems to happen 1 out of 10 times.
