Works—so far, breaks are taken

Disclaimer: using it less than a week. I must say it works so far (Ive only skipped the break once), and I like it overall.

+ Quick countdown before the break gives the time to prepare for context change so that you dont feel inerrupted and dont resort to skipping the break.
+ The absence of postpone functionality on the break screen is probably good. AFAICT postponing an already started break can easily become a reflex and render such software useless.
+ I like the green ‘Done’ button on the break screen so far. I imagine Id be pressing it more often (which is bad) if it was instead a red ‘Stop the break’ or ‘Return to work’ button, for example. ‘Done’ frames the break positively, as an accomplishment, not as a break from being productive.
+ The bell ring sound at the break start is well-chosen.

- UI appearance: Recess window looks slightly inconsistent with the rest of OS (green color, non-standard controls), status bar icon might be better with some polish, the ‘Done’ button padding on break screen is a bit uneven. This all doesnt cause inconveniences to me personally, but it did somewhat stain the first impression.

Ive tried some software to help me take breaks before, but eventually dropped it. I think Recess has the potential.
