User reviews
That I have to choose the actual URL (the tab I am on is not defaulted below) is SCHTUPID!!! You should show the CURRENT TAB URL as the TARGET; if you want ANOTHER instead, click that from below and it updates the TARGET; then you auto-refresh the TARGET. Secondly defaulting at 5/10/15/30 is DOUBLE SCHTUPID. 15/30/60/120 or 15/30/60/300 would be more realistic. I will be looking for something that just works without fuss.

Highly recommend this extension. I used it to try and secure a new LG 27GP950-B monitor that wasn't in stock yet. Thanks to this extension, I was able to secure one. I love how you can customize the tabs and timers for reloading. I know some people have mentioned the yellow on white issue, but I can see it just fine. It probably would be better with a different color scheme, but all in all a fantastic extension. It works just as intended. I would argue this is CRUCIAL for online shoppers that have to deal with competing with bots buying out inventory.

It would be perfect if the current page was selected by default in the Choose tab list
