Is it me, or does it take 30 minutes to an hour to become ready? Green Light.

Mine is ready in about 5 min. Yours must be defective. How long have you had it?

Might be something wrong with your unit. Ours heats up in a matter of minutes

Hi, The first and only time I used it, took about 10 minutes. It appears that it would get easier the more you use it.

15 minutes - all it takes really. Just make sure that you have power outlet somewhere close.

It usually takes 3 hrs., but you can try the super rapid setting. I haven't tried that so I don't know how it works.

It's not hard if you have patience. It took me about 30 minutes (give or take) to apply the entire keyboard. If you're impatient I wouldn't get this.

It takes about 2-3 hours. I haven't paid too much attention, but when I see the green I unplug it. I'm very happy with it.

It's not consistent, but about 1 minute. The times up timer is a bit longer.

I think it took 2 or 3 hours, maybe a little more if the battery is completely dead and the charger light turned green

If you don't drive it ll take more than one hour.. it did not work for us then...we stopped waiting after one hour and drove. that it was quicker. But still not quick! you need to have patience

Mine took about the same amount of time give or take a minute... Very long and slow to install...

It takes about ten to fifteen seconds (tops) to warm up for full brightness.

That's way too long. It seems to take longer than usual with some cheap batteries and with rechargeables. Even then, not 20 minutes. I'd double check that it's not the batteries if convenient and/or contact the seller/mfgr to see if they'll swap it for another one.

I enter the time, but I saw that my daughter just hit start.... maybe there's an automatic setting of 1 minute. We'll have to go back and read the manual, you and I !!!

With my experiance, it only takes about 15 to 20 minutes per pair. Sometimes one of the batteries will complete their charge sooner as indicated by the Green light associated with the corresponding battery.

It takes forever! I usually plug mine in over night and cross my fingers that it will be full charged in the morning.

Not at all, honestly. Set aside 10 minutes for a relaxing install. I could do the whole thing in 3 minutes in a race, and I am not handy at all!

It takes anywhere from 30-45 minutes to get warmed up enough for expresso, it will go green (ok) several times before it will actually make.
