Is there a timer? Is it noise when it is working? I am afraid it is as loud as my oven when automatically turn on/off, hope it won't wake me up~~

There is no timer. The only noise it ever makes is the the very first time the oil inside heats up on the first use, and its first use after seasonal storage. This low popping noise lasts for a couple minutes and then its quiet. After that its silent every time you turn it on and use it.

There's a fan that blows hot air out from behind the center burner when the oven is on. The fan is only on when the oven is on. So yeah, seems like you're going to have the same problem.

Yeah. That's the little fan inside. That's part of the convection ovens, but It should not be loud. If is too loud, maybe it fell down during shipping.

The toaster oven cycles on and off during most of the function except for the toast function which stays on for a period of time depending on what setting you have it on. It has a power button which you push to turn on the toaster and after you finish using it you push the power button to turn it off. We never have left it on after using it so I do not know if it would turn off after a period of time on its own. We turn it off and unplug the toaster. I am not real sure of the question.

I have to respectfully disagree with the comment from NM Norma. Maybe she has an older or different version of this timer. I have a recent version, approximately one month old, and it beeps non-stop until I hit the reset button. I find this to be a very helpful feature. It's also pretty loud, but not TOO loud. I'm not sure if it would be loud enough to be heard from upstairs, especially if there are a lot of other noises in the house, but the great thing is that it has a belt clip so you can simply take it with you wherever you go. :)

Yup - agree with all below. The default setting is: On until the machine is turnred Off. The timer button can be pressed to select any of the 4 different times (1 press = 30 minutes; 2 = 60 etc.). But those are OPTIONS; no press = On until turned off. (BTW: After 3 other "noise" machine brands we've tried, this is by far the best.)

There is a beep whenever it is done with the cooking cycle you have it set on. As for the outlet situation, even when plugged in it can be turned on or off via the power button.

It's been several months since we replaced ours, so only going on memory here. There was a 'one minute' button which would heat on high for one minute. If you enter say 530, it should heat for 5 minutes 30 seconds, at whatever power level selected. If it doesn't do that, it's defective. Try entering a time then hit the timer button, which should just time down and sound the alarm when the time is up. If that doesn't work either, you know it's defective. Good luck. (Our control panel worked fine for 10 years.)

Yes it automatically shuts off when the timer gets to zero. This toaster oven is the bomb

What do you mean? The only timer I have seen is the auto shut off after certain time. That is about it.

On the two highest settings it can be loud.Easy solution is to turn the unit on either the highest setting or Auto about an hour prior to going into the room.At that point you can put it on the first or second settings overnight and it shouldn't disturb you.I leave it on Auto and sometimes it will cycle into high while I'm sleeping but that no longer bothers me.Effective machine the easier breathing makes the noise issue tolerable.

The ticking noises on the features that I stated previously was due to the timer but I have notice different sounds for different settings. Also, I do recall using toaster setting once and I heard nothing out of the ordinary, only the timer ticking noise.

How much noise does it make ?? This is an electronic timer and I don't think it makes anymore noise than the audible click you may here when it is programmed to turn on (or off). You may have it confused with analog timers that make a slight rattling noise as long as they are plugged in. This timer is very quiet.

Mine only makes a quick, not too loud of a noise, right as it turns on... before it starts to grind. It only lasts a fraction of a second. I would be concerned if you have a continuing noise. I would exchange it, rather than worry every time you use it.

It is a very low beep. I ended going to one of those dollar type stores and purchasing some kitchen timers. There is also a website that has visual timers.

Yes, it continues to beep for 60 seconds after it goes off. As I said in my review I would not buy this again because it has such a short alarm time. If you step outside or go to the garage for something you may not realize it has gone off for several minutes. The other one I have rings for five minutes and also has a countdown screen which continues to count down so you'll know how long ago it went off. Just my thoughts.

The timer only goes to a maximum of 30 minutes. It does have a "Stay On" function on the dial if you want the toaster to simply stay on until you decide to turn it off. A bit of warning, though: my timer broke and I can only keep the dial set to "Stay On" now. Because of that I can only turn off the toaster oven by unplugging it. The dial won't stop once it's reached the "Off" position when the timer is being used. I don't mind because I find the ticking sound of the timer to be really annoying anyway. But if you were relying on a timer for helping you properly cook your meal, just a warning that my timer did break only about a month or so after I started using my oven. I hope this is useful for you.
