Really funny! It definitely does work, although the volume is a bit low. A fun gift!

Bought as a gift for someone who makes their own pasta. They love it!! Not super loud but a total hit.

Ist OK aber teuer für die Qualität

In 2023 I was purchasing kitchen articles for a "Family Night Italian Dinner" church raffle basket and found this "Al Dente" pasta timer. It was a fun and unusual addition to our basket and I decided to get one for myself later. I was very surprised to find that it actually worked. I put it in the pot with the water and spaghetti noodles and after about 10 minutes we heard it playing the "Godfather" movie theme. The pasta was al-dente at that point. We listened to the music a little longer and suddenly the tune switched to "That's Amore". The pasta was done perfectly. The only reason I couldn't give it 5 stars is that we had to be in the kitchen to hear the timer music. My daughter could not hear it in the next room. I tried to purchase another timer for my son but it was no longer available. I was pleased to find it again this year and purchased it for him. This is a great timer to use when family or friends are socializing in the kitchen while the pasta is being cooked. It works well, but stay in close proximity to it or you will miss the music.Update: Used Al-Dente pasta timer again last night with a thicker pasta (Rigatoni). The timer played the Godfather theme when the pasta was just barely aldente. It rang again later playing the Tarantella (not That's Amore) & at that point it was truely aldente. We continued to cook the pasta and a third melody (a chorus from Verdi's opera Nabucco) played and the pasta was done. Gotta love this Al-Dente timer!

This is so cute and it works! Such a great idea for gifts to friends, neighbors, and coworkers. Music is not too loud, but you hear it just fine since you are already near the stove/pot to make sure it is not boiling over.

I bought this with the same expectations I had from using their egg. That was a mistake. The egg works perfectly, and is loud and easy to hear. This Al dente is very hard to hear, especially when the open holes are submerged on the water. The quality is definitely a bit cheaper in feel, compared to their egg product. $24 is just too much for this with the quality issues it currently has. I do highly suggest their egg product though for boiling eggs!

My friend who loves pasta got a real "kick" out of Al Dente. It does work.

It works as described, it is charming, but the sound is almost inaudible during the boiling water and if there is other noises in the kitchen.A timer works better for this purpose

Took a while for this to arrive. I bought this for my husband, who can't time pasta to save himself. I'm Sicilian, properly cooked pasta is essential. You drop 'Guido,' I've named him, in a pot from the start and at about 9 minutes, music plays and yes, changes the longer in the pot. The Godfather theme is just a crack up. Yes, its accurate too. All you do is pour Guido out with the water in a strainer, (do not try to lift it out, too hot) rinse it off afterwards. The price is a bit steep but was worth it to get a laugh. And no undercooked pasta!

Me gusta la comida italiana, pero reconozco que el punto al dente me es algo complicado entre mi concepto y el de mi esposo. Con este mafioso al agua es una precision única y muy simpatica. La música es muy clara y de un volumen moderado así que es necesario estar cerca de la olla o sin ruidos alrededor. Gracias

Es súper divertido de usar lo colocas en el agua y cuando está hirviendo hace su primer canto y vas midiendo como te gusta la pasta según la canción cada canción es diferente. Me ha ayudado bastante.
