Does it turn off automatically or do you use a timer?

No timer, you have to set a timer. Just made a batch of pumpkin ice cream this AM. Awesome.

It does not turn off automatically. You need to watch the ice cream through the top of the canister and turn it off when it is your desired consistency.

Look at a clock when you turn it on and check it 20-30 minutes later. Sometimes it takes a little longer. You can tell when it's done.

No auto shut-off so you do have to watch or time it. Every recipe is different as far as time goes. This is one of those appliances that depends...on...how cold is the inner liner, how cold are your ingredients, WHAT are your ingredients? You do have to watch it and after 20-30 minutes you can shut it off as your ice cream (or whatever) is to your desired consistency.

Yes, it has an auto-off feature. Not sure how long it stays on but it automatically shuts off if left unused within 5 minutes.

It does not turn off when you unplug your device, but you can press the button and it turns off. You don't need to unplug the timer. I love it. I have had it for quite some time and still use it for my flat iron and other hot devices.

No it does not, you have to actually unplug it to turn it off. I actually returned this item, very cheaply made. For a few dollars more you can purchase a Miu from Amazon; lots of extra features including timer. I just got this a few weeks ago and very happy with it.

No, you need to follow the instructions to turn off auto off. It's described in the instruction booklet.

There's a button. You have to turn it off and on I believe never left it on long enough to see if it turns off automatically. But pretty sure you have to do it yourself

No, it does not have an automatic shut off. You must turn it off manually. However, it does work really well.

I don't know. I just turn it on and turn it off. There are many options for timing. The directions that came with it are very complete and detailed. There is a clock for timing. I wasn't interested in those options so didn't read carefully.

It has a sleep timer mode on it. It will shut off automatically after setting it for desired time.

there is a switch to lock it,..if you LOCK the timer, no..it won't turn off easily. I use mine every day for lab testing and it's never turned off by accident.

It does automatically shut off after a certain amount of time, the longest time setting is 1 hour.

No automatic shut off. However, there is a timer. You set the timer and then the unit will shut off. That comes in handy for me.

There are 3 settings - high, low and off. It will automatically turn off if it runs out of water. However, there is no timer as such. Thanks.

It has an automatic shut-off. I think it turns off automatically after an hour. Move the switch to off and turn it on again.

I have never used the timer but if you set the temp. it will automatically heat up the room until it reaches that temp. then it will automatically turn off. I have it run in my kids room at night, I set the temp to low 70 and it will continue to heat all night and turn off automatically. The temp gage it a little off. I have a Thermometer in my kids room that says the room is 67 when the heater is set to 70. I like it because it is safe with the tip over switch and it has a energy save mode.

Yes. I generally set a timer for about 17 minutes then turn it off myself, just because I don't want to forget and it doesn't have any sort of beeper. Once the water boils out it turns itself off.
