It looks like the creators of this kitchen timer might have glanced at a certain portable music player when coming up with the design.

The busy cook’s best friend, this state-of-the-art digital timer reliably monitors cooking times for up to three dishes at once – so you can tend to other tasks without keeping an eye on the clock. Cooking times can be set independently, each with an alert tone for each dish.

Equipped with three timers plus a clock, it is sleekly designed with an easy-to-read backlit LCD display. The adjustable dial makes programming a snap. A countertop stand and two AA batteries are included.

The Triple Timer is available at Williams-Sonoma for $19.95.
