Immersion Heater Timers - recommendations?

Options
Thinking of installing one to be a bit more efficient, often we accidentally leave it on for several hours, no doubt bumping up our electric bill in the summer.

Requirement is a digital timer, with at 30 to 60 min boost function, and perhaps also a recurring timer, that you can disable in the winter when the central heating is active

Found 3 that fit the bill, listed below:

(available from Maplin)

and this one from Horstmann is simpler just with stages of boost, rather than a daily timer:
