I'm looking for an interval timer with adjustable intervals and an audible beep and/or vibration.  The Gymboss seems to be the most common, but I read some of the reviews on amazon and it seems there may be issues with durability and difficulty resetting the timer.  

Let's hear it.
Recommendations?  Reviews?  Experiences?  Third party anecdotes?

HIIT Interval Timing Trainer is the shiznit.

I have a gymboss that I like a lot...no problems so far, had it a year or so.

I'm still using an old flip phone.   Thanks for the suggestion though.

Good to hear.  Looks like that's probably what I'll go with.

I'm not sure why people would have problems setting them, the directions are stamped right on the back of it....

I just skimmed the reviews on amazon.  A few of them said something about a reset button that you need a small pin to push.

yeah that's true, I think I actually had to reset it once maybe over the last year...not something that needs to be done regularly by any means. Of course being that's it's just a sample of one, I may have got a "good one" so who knows.

I'm gonna go ahead and get the gymboss.  They're pretty much the only game in town and the thing is only 20 bucks anyway.  It's got a 1-year warranty and the majority of the reviews were positive.
Thanks for your input.

We have several, never had a problem with them.
