Title: A fatal flaw?
Review: I've now owned two of these, and both died after a year or two--after screwing up some critical time-keeping chores. When the first timer failed, I gave Presto the benefit of the doubt--out of a sense of brand loyalty--and purchased another one. Now, the same behavior has repeated itself: the key pad has became less responsive--you have to press harder and harder to get the numbers to register--and the timing operation sometimes just stops, the screen starts flashing uncontrollably, and no alarm sounds. If you are doing a count-up timing operation, all data is lost. I have an older--and simpler--Taylor timer, which has now outlived both of the Presto units. Suffice it to say: no more benefits of the doubt for Presto.
