TimeStick Trio vs. Smartphone
Nowadays there’s an app for everything. Smartphones can calculate the tip, text a buddy, confirm travel plans, surf the web, even make a phone call. But is your Smartphone the best tech tool to have in the kitchen?
Here are 21 reasons the New TimeStick Trio beats the pants off of your Smartphone when it comes to keeping time in the kitchen:
1 – Three Timers in One – Sure your Smartphone has a timer, and with a bit of searching you can probably download an app that keeps time on the moon, but by the time you’re three swipes into your catalog of apps TimeStick Trio has already started counting.
2 – Water Proof – Oh no! You splashed water on your phone and now you’re scrambling to save it. Quick, let’s get TimeStick Trio wet and time how long it takes to fill a bag with rice.
3 – Free 2-year Warranty – Want that extra 1-year care plan in case something happens to your Smartphone? It’s gonna cost you! With TimeStick Trio a 2-year warranty is FREE.
4 – Count Down Time – Good luck figuring out how to set that count-down feature on your phone.
5 – Cost $35 – In the off chance you ruin your TimeStick Trio by dropping it into a vat of molten hot sugar you can probably replace it with the change you find in your couch cushions. Wreck your phone and you’ll be saving money for a month.
6 – Survives Being Run Over by a Car – Remember that time your phone survived being run over by a car? Yeah, neither do we.
7 – Rugged – Right out of the package TimeStick Trio is rugged and ready to get to work. You’ll need a special case for your Smartphone if you want the same protection.
8 – You Don’t Need an App for That – It’s a timer. That’s what it does. You don’t need an App!
9 – Hang it From Your Neck – Ever try hanging your Smartphone from your neck? You might get stopped by the fashion police.
10 – Pocket-Sized – Sure, a Smartphone will also fit in your pocket…well most Smartphones, anyway.
11 – Protects Against Dirty fingers – Dirty kitchen hands are no problem for TimeStick Trio. Of course you’d never dream of touching your Smartphone with slimy kitchen hands.
12 – Perfect Gift – When’s the last time you gave a Smartphone to a friend? Now, think about who you know that could use a TimeStick Trio. Makes more sense doesn’t it?
13 – Stick it to Your Fridge – Unless you’ve got double-sided tape, your Smartphone isn’t sticking to anything.
14 – No Phone Call Interruptions – Busy in the kitchen? TimeStick Trio promises not to annoy you with an untimely call from your mother.
15 – Durable Housing – Drop TimeStick on your kitchen tile and you’ll have a good laugh. Do the same thing with your Smartphone and you’ll be sweeping up the pieces – and maybe drying a few tears.
16 – Don’t Need to Text – TimeStick Trio promises never to text you in the middle of dinner prep. #lol
17 – Battery Lasts for 10,000 Hours – How long is 10,000 hours? 416 days. We’ll bet your Smartphone is plugged into the charger right now.
18 – Give it to the Kids to Play With – “Here kids, play with my Smartphone!” – Said no one ever.
19 – No Contract – You don’t have to sign any dotted lines with TimeStick Trio. Keep your first born and let them play with your new timer!
20 – Count Up Time – Remember that count-down feature your were trying to figure out? TimeStick Trio counts up, too.
21 – Drop it in Water, No Problem – Splash your phone and there’s a chance it might come back to life. Drop it in water and it’s curtains. After taking a dunk in the drink TimeStick Trio will help keep track of how long it takes until you stop crying about your ruined phone.
In the end, a timer is the best kitchen timer! Don’t muck about with your smartphone, use a tool that’s meant for the job, and get yourself a ThermoWorks TimeStick Trio.
To cook dinner while keeping track of how much time left before I told the kids I would turn off the TV.
This would be perfect for when we have family BBQ’s. I could set it for whats baking in the oven, simmering on the stove top, and smoking on the grill. I could keep it with me the whole time and always know how long till each dish needs my attention. Seems like the perfect kitchen gadget for the multitasking home cook.
I tried to order a new time stick with my smartphone and it kept alerting “Internet connection not found…”

Sounds like a time stick would be a huge improvement over the POS timer I’m using in the kitchen now.
