"Egg stra" Special Baby Themed Egg Timer Favors
4
    Adorable in appearance, but some issues!

We ordered these favors for my sister's baby shower in April 2010. In fact, we even incorporated the "chick" theme--for example, the invites said to come celebrate the baby chick!
The ordering process was fine, and the items were shipped quickly. Although the individual eggs are packaged nicely as pictured with a small white bow, the entire box (including bow) was covered in cellophane--we all agreed that this looked cheap and needed to be removed. This wasn't a big deal, but it was a bit time consuming, and it did cause the bows to be somewhat crushed.
We didn't discover the second issue until AFTER the shower, when we actually tried to use one of the timers--it didn't work!!! :( After several tries, we could not get it to buzz at all. Then, my sister said that she has an egg timer which requires you to turn past the 20-minute mark and then turn BACK to the desired time in order to make it work. When we tried this, the timer did go off, although not really at an exact time. Furthermore, there are no instructions included, so there would be no way for our guests to know how to use the timers, unfortunately. From FavorFavor: I apologize for the difficulties using the timers. Indeed,there should be instructions included and we have already contacted the manufacturer and will be including them in future shipments. It will, however take several months for them to show up in the packages.
So, overall, we loved the appearance of these timers, including the very nice boxes and bows (minus plastic), but we were a bit disappointed at the performance--some sort of instructions are definitely warranted!!!
