Do the buttons beep when you start, stop and reset? And can the vibration be turned off? I need a timer that won't make any noise at all. Thanks guys!

The buttons are soundless. Vibration is switched on/off on the back. With the flashing light turned on, other operations vibration and buzz turned off, it can alert you soundlessly.

The timer beeps three times then pauses for about 1 second intermittently for 30 seconds. To set the timer you press the minute button repeatedly for how minutes you want to set. Same with the seconds. It is a good timer and has a memory function for the last setting. Take care not to drop it.

Michele, mine doesn't beep either.... check the "trouble shooting" guide in the manual that came with it, possible helpful. (I love this machine, it has been amazing for a "huge project" so I can't say enough good things. I hope the manual helps you out with this issue and that it goes strong from there.

The buttons do not make any noise. I don't think there's a setting, it's just silent by default. It only makes noise for the alarm if you turn it on.

Yes, the timer can be set and reset without sounds. Only a blinking green light and the changing digital display indicate the timer is running. There is a loud, shrieking noise when the timer reaches it's set time.

Hi - If you set the timer to count down, after it counts down and goes off, it will count up, but no alarm at the end of a count up time if that is what you are looking for. BEWARE of one thing about this timer. If you set it for an amount of time and it goes off, a normal individual's (me?) expectation would be that when you hot the switch to turn it off, that's it and the alarm will not continue to sound. Well, that's wrong. This crazy product will continue to ring every (30 secs? 1 minute?) until you go stark raving mad and exile it to another room so you no longer have to hear it. BUT - there is a solution I only recently discovered on my own. After you hit the STOP button, hit the button on the upper left side of the screen to return to the Clock function and the alarm will not continue to sound. This may sound crazy but the alarm problem was so annoying I avoided using this timer for about 2 years until I stumbled over this solution. And in answer to your second question, you would have to set alarm times and have the alarm go off to do a count up, but the 3 channels are independent.

Yes, it will count up until the stop button is pressed. I've never let the timer go beyond a minute and a half before turning it off so, I can't tell you how long it will continue to beep when time is up.

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.

no. however, the timer will go off at exactly 20 minutes and will beep until it stops by itself automatically.but if you want it to go off in 20 minutes again, all you have to do is to press the start/stop button and it will go another 20 minutes. and if you want it for another 20 minutes, just do the same....again and again every 20 minutes. simple.

Hi - I haven't discovered anything on the timer that would mute it. I'm afraid you would be rudely awakened by a loud beeping. I hope this helps with your purchasing decisions. Peggy

I hadn't noticed since I've been using the timer. But I just finished this mornings brew and it does not beep. I believe Cuisinart does that.

The timer beeps according to which event is ending. The top event beeps in sequences of one. The second beeps in sequences of two. Three for three, four for four. It will beep until you turn it off. If more than one timer has finished it beeps the sequence of the last one to finish. I find the beeps very loud which is why I bought this particular timer.

Yes and no. Yes, it continues to count up while beeping (because the time is up) until you press "stop". (Very helpful for baking to know how long passed the time it is.) No, you can't use it to count up silently. If that is what you're looking for, this isn't it. Once you push "stop" the timer quits beeping and you cannot push start again to have it continue counting up silently. My old Taylor model would continue to count up silently after you pushed "stop" and only stopped completely if you pushed it twice. This would be helpful for timing how long it takes to do something, like a stopwatch. Yes and no. Yes, it continues to count up while beeping (because the time is up) until you press "stop".

It has a timer. It is an adjustable on-off timer that you can set in 30 minute increments up to 7.5 hours. It does beep when you shut it off but it is a quick single beep. It beeps when you turn it on or off but again it is quick and not annoying.

I just tested my little box as I really didn't know the answer! It beeps twice when you push the on switch to ON and then a lower beep as you select the time you want. You can watch the time, you can turn to another time and you can switch to OFF if you want to miss another signal. But you cannot avoid the two beeps at the beginning.

if you shut off at twenty minutes when alarm sounds...it will reset to twenty minutes, but you will manually have to press start again to start the 20 min countdown. if you don't shut off, it will alert 'beep, etc. for one minute, then shut off and reset. still have to press start to countdown again. loudest timer i could find. chefzee

It beeps when you're pushing the buttons to set it, when it gets to the temperature set and then when it shuts off. You can not adjust to sound level but I don't find it to be too loud. My microwave is louder.
