CoralLife dual analog timer/power strip any good?

[novahobbies]

Title pretty much says it all.....is the CoralLife analog timer any good, or have there been problems? It's the only one I've found that will handle the 10K, Actinic, and moonlights all in one shot, so I was leaning towards this, but not at the expense of it crapping out 3 months down the road.
Anyone have this? Any opinions?

I've been using one for about 9 months never had a problem with it.

I have 2 of these, one for my 55g reef and one for my 14g Nano. I have had no trouble with either for over a year and a half. Great timer, IMO.

NO!!!!!!! These things are garbage. Here is a thread of what happened when one malfunction. I had the same thing happen to me.I would NOT waste your money on this. See post 18 in this thread https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/318044/major-loss-today-87

Hmmmm, I'm getting the feeling that these are hit-or-miss in regards to quality. Couple people have good ones, couple people have bad ones.....I'm going to buy a 12 dollar timer from lowes. Shame, really, as it would have made my wiring schematic that much easier.
OTOH, since I don't have halides, maybe it might be worth the risk, as the lighting can't heat up enough to kill the fishies. Decisions, decisions....
