The best part about installation is that the company did a video for both 120v and 240v appliances. Installation for these is different, so make sure you know the voltage of the line you're installing on. I ignored the wiring diagrams; the video explains everything very clearly. A couple of problems:
1. It's very difficult to secure the wires to the terminals. You really have to unscrew the screw, hold it out of the way with a screwdriver, and really push the bare wire ends under the screws to secure them. So many times I thought I had the wire secured, gave it a test pull, and it came right out. But in the end I got them all securely connected.
2. Considering that for a 240v installation, you're dealing with heavy gauge wire with 3 bulky wire connectors, the space given for all the wiring is small. I really had to push everything back into that space, and still the cover didn't fit cleanly. The company might consider adding a few more cubic inches in a future version.
Installation took me about two hours. A few bumps in the road, but nothing that's a deal breaker. Anyone with some experience with electrical wiring can do this themselves, but as always, if you're not sure, call an electrician.
After the installation things seem to run smoothly. Setting the time is simple (turn the dial till the current time is opposite the arrow), and setting the on/off times is super intuitive. I notice the green power light is on now, so the unit is working, and the red light that indicates current to the appliance goes on exactly at the times I set. I've changed the water heater from being on 24/7 to just turning on from 7-11 am and 6-9 pm, so there's hot water when I need it. In a month I hope to see a power bill that reflects savings from not running the appliance all the time.
Overall, I'm quite satisfied since the product and would buy another if I have other appliances that can be on a timer.

El "switch" de apagado manual y el timer dejo de funcionar.
Hoy lo reemplaze.
Este producto no debería de llevar la marca Tork.
*******
El dispositivo, (caja y mecanismones de plástico) no se ve muy resistente solo el tiempo lo dirá.
El manual impreso adjuntos es muy malo, lo pude instalar gracias al video que acompaña al video en Amazon.
Son necesarios el uso de 3 "jump wires" eso fue una sorpresa pero siempre se aprende algo nuevo.
