Does it have a timer function to specify the time you want the rice to be ready?

no. although I imagine you could plug it into a wall timer. It does specify how long white and brown rice take to cook in the manual.

No, it does not have a timer to specify the time one wants the rice to be ready. But, what it does have is a nice sized non-coated good quality stainless steel steamer basket and pot which I could not find in any other steamer of the same quality as this one.

It has built in timers for cooking the rice, but no timer to set for when to start cooking the rice.

The delayed time allows the user to delay the cooking process up to 8 hours in half hour increments. You can use the delay time setting with the following programs: slow cook, rice cook, high and low pressure cooking. You will love this cooker! It's amazing how quickly you can get supper on the table.

Yes, it does have a timer and also a notch where it will just run continuously until you turn it off. As Kevin mentions below variables in foods and their moisture content sort of makes it hard to judge how long any given job will take, so it's sort of like chrome on an automobile - Nice but not really necessary.

Yes. it worked fine with timer. You can preset the cooking end time that means program will start much earlier than end (ready) time.

Using the timer feature, you tell the machine when you want your rice DONE. It then automatically determines when it needs to start in order to complete the rice, depending on the type of rice you told the cooker you have. The timer must be set at least 2 hours in advance.

It doesn't have a timer. If you are going to set it to cook and then leave, then you should've put it at the lowest setting and if your meal is not done when you return, then you can raise it to a higher setting until it is done.

You fill the bottom portion with water up to the line, the put 1 cup rice to 1-1/3 cup water in the white rice dish above the steamer basket. Put the lid on and set timer to 45 minutes. You will get perfect rice. I love this machine!

The only time function I am aware of is the cook / time function. You set your temp first then hit the function button until both the temp and time red led's are on. Then scroll with the arrow keys to your selected cook time. The unit will run at the selected temp for the length of time set and automatically turn off. Hope this helps.

Yes, there is a "Rice" button on the control panel, although I haven't used it.

I'm sorry. I don't know if it does. I don't have these automatic timers anymore, sold them with the home I left them with. Sorry I can't answer your question. I set timers for a certain time but not like your times. They worked well for me. Sorry I can't answer your question. :o/

You can program it to cook for a certain length of time but it doesn't have a delayed start feature.

Yes, it does. Find the FUNC on the your screen, click it and you will see a list of buttons on the left.. The second one from the top says OFF and it is the self-timer you are looking for :)

Yes and a timer. Love this version because it also has the removable dishwasher safe plates.

Mine does not have a timer. There are many factors involved with dehydrating something, the temperature and humidity of where you're dehydrating, how moist the product is you are drying, how dry you actually want something, how full the dehydrator is, how think the meat or fruit is sliced, that I don't think a timer is a useful option on one of these any way.

It does. 'Kitchen Timer' shares the same button as '0.' Press and hold for 3 seconds to activate timer mode. Can only be used when MW is not in use.

yes. it has chime which signal you by ringing like 6 times to let you know that your meal is ready to eat. for your second inquiry about off switch, i haven't experienced that, but what i know is when the meal is ready, it automatically switch to keep warm mode and you can turn off as soon as you empty the pan.hope that will help, of course i forgot, that rice cooker is perfect and i use to cook both white and fried rice with that. i love it. for sure you will too.

Yes it has a simple timer from 1 to 8 hrs auto off, no choice for certain time of day.
