Best Timer I Have Ever Found
Excellent timer. It has 2 outlets so you can control 2 devices. It is easy to program, and the Daylight Savings Time (DST) button makes it very convenient when the time changes. One press of this button and the time on the timer changes. The internal battery holds the programming in the event of a power outage. The best timer I have found.

    I bought three of these and exchanged them because it appeared that the battery didn't charge to allow programming - the instructions say plug in for one hour prior to programming and after leaving the unit plugged in for more than a day, I was not able to get it to come on to program. I was about to return them when I stumbled on a post with the advice to insert the end of a paper clip in the hole next to the letter "R" on the front to reset. Worked like a charm and I was able to program following the instructions. Programming this unit is a bit clunky - seems old fashioned compared to the way other modern electronics function. The units have been working reliably for a year but next time I need one I'm either going completely old school with the pins and dial or upgrading to a better quality unit

      After 9 years the original Woods digital times stoped working properly so we replaced it with a new one from Home Depot. A Side note, found that by pushing the "R" hole with a tooth pick it corrected the error. Now we are putting two Woods times to good use.

      Timer failed in about 2 months and would not turn on. It is very confusing to program. There are about 10 steps to sequence through and some steps are not identified on screen so very easy to lose track of each step. It is difficult to keep track of which step you are on and may not know if you are setting the current time, On time, Off time, sun rise, or sunset. Going through 10 steps over and over is frustrating. After this one failed to switch on I purchased a different timer which is also somewhat confusing to program but all steps are identified on screen which makes it considerably easier to know what step you are on.

          This is the replacement timer for my water treatment system which draws 17 amps on start up. It runs at 13 amps and the timer generally last 2-3 years before it croaks. Not super intuitive to program but following the instructions will get you there.

          Doesn't work
          The timer held a charge and was able to set a simple program. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. Once turned on, it never turns off. The countdown timer doesn't work either- this just stays on always!! Defeats the purpose of a timer. This is going back.

            Good product
            This timer appeared to come dead in the package, but the directions say to use a toothpick to push the "reset" and it comes alive. Unlike its smaller brother, leave this timer without power for a week, and the display disappears; reconnecting power and the internal battery recharges. Easy to program, works reliably. HOME DEPOT's description is accurate and it works. What more can I say?

            best ever
            The timer instructions were easy to follow. The battery charged up in a few minutes and it keeps perfect time. Using the random times let you feel safe to go on a vacation for days or weeks at a time. I would recommend this timer to all my friends.

            Dead on Arrival
            Internal battery was dead on arrival. It doesn't work. Apparently this is the case with most of them. Unbelievable that they still sell this product. Don't buy!!!

            Did not work from the beginning
            Product has internal battery that would not charge, per instructions. This is the third electronic-style timer I have purchased from Home Depot in several years....and NONE have ever worked. Very disappointed!

            Product loses it program and fails.
            Product seems to have a design flaw. It worked for 3 days then lost its program and the time of day. I reprogrammed it and again it worked for a few days and then lost the program and the time of day.

            Not Reliable
            At any given time, the timer will reset to 12:00 for no apparent reason when asked to turn something on, loosing all on & off settings.
