    Pretty sure that’s most oven/stove top timers as many intermediate steps in baking/cooking require set time intervals, meaning rarely do you want things to turn off when a timer ends.

      I’m glad I know now, I also learned when the stove gets too hot it does shut off. Because it was off when I went downstairs to get a drink. It smelled pretty burned.

        Glad to hear that. I imagine most modern stoves have some safety features built in, but you should still be careful - leaving a pan on a heat source (for extended periods) without anything in the pan can also damage the pan/stove top.

    I didn’t even know that some stoves have a feature which lets you turn the burner off with a timer!

        I get the impression that this is an IKEA stove thing mostly.

    How would it know which one to turn off if you had multiple things on? Timer could just as easily be for add the next ingredient as it could be for stop cooking.

      I’m really confused why “turn off my stove” would be the presumed functionality. Someone must’ve lied to them because no stoves do that. Otherwise, why would they suddenly assume that’s what a timer was doing?

        I’ve used stoves with that functionality, you can select what it applies to with a button.

        I know its functionality I have never seen before on a hob or oven. Microwaves do but their timer is required to turn it on in the first place.

        I can control my Samsung oven and fridge (came with the house) entirely from my phone.

        I’ve seen that functionality on an oven (Inc mine, though I don’t use it). I’ve never seen it on a hob before.

          My oven has a cook time timer and a standard timer. The cook time ending turns off the oven while the standard one doesn’t.

            Oven, sure. But I’ve never seen a stovetop that does that.

      You select the active hob and set the desired timer. Usually the timer is either limited to a single hob at once, in more premium alternatives you might be able to set one for each hob individually.

      I’ve only ever seen this in separate cooktops though, not in stoves.

        Ohh my only guess was herbal tea (at first I thought maybe a bone broth but they didn’t look sturdy enough for bones).

    our oven has a “kitchen timer” and a “cook timer”, the first does what you say, the second turns the oven off. Maybe there’s another option?

    Ours turns it off. Same with the oven.

    Ours appears to have 2 settings. If you press the timer once, it just counts down. If you press a second time, it will turn off after the designated time.

    we have an IKEA - and it took me far too long before we realised there was a little dot on the timer that would indicate which element it was on, and tapping the timer button would cycle through them.
