As the saying goes, timing is everything! This is especially true when playing a musical instrument.
There are many benefits to using a metronome.
One of my favorite tricks with a metronome is to set it up so the click is on the 2 and 4 of a measure like a snare drum. This can be challenging and will really help you find the groove. I think that you will find that using a metronome is a fast way to improve your timing and feel which will really help you become a better player.

I've always struggled with timing issues and have tried various metronomes, I finally gave up and joined a death metal band.

I personally have used a metronome for years, but piano players are a different breed.
