From the picture it looks like it has an automatic timer. Is there an option to turn this off if you prefer to have the noise all night long?

it is either one hour or indefinite. I use batteries in mine and use the one hour mode. I have to replace the batteries about every two months.

Yes the auto timer can be turned off so that the machine will run all night

Yes. You can override the timer and turn it off. I have four of these in my house, and you can turn it back off if you change your mind. I wouldn't make it a habit, however.

There are other Marpac sound conditioners that offer timers, if you really want that feature. I, personally, think that it's best to keep it on all night - it helps me sleep soundly and more deeply than I used to sleep, all night long (as opposed to just leaving it on for a little while to help me fall asleep, and then having turn itself off - I feel like I'd be woken in the middle of the night without it on.)

No it always seems to be loud. Over a year no better. I don't run it at night anymore because of this

Yes, but it is very loud! We've only use it twice but definitely turned it off during quiet hours.

You can choose just one sound to play continuously- or set an automatic turn off. I LOVE the thing- it's comes with us out of town as well :)

It stays on all night. You can control it with the on/off switch as well. I honestly never used the timer.

No I am unable to turn the sound off as it is a ticking timer. It's the mechanism itself that makes the noise.

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

It it has a clock I've never seen it. No clock. You can program the noises to shut off after a certain amount of time has elapsed or set it for continuous.

There is a switch on the bottom to turn off the sound. It does get annoying!

Yes you can turn the sound off. Bought this for the Wife to use in bed late in the nights.

nope, no timer function. you'd have to manually change its mode each night.

It has a timer. It'll only run for that set amount of time then it'll turn off. That's normal.

It has a auto turn off if it gets too hot. But I would not leave it on all night. It does not have a timer.

When it runs it sounds like a fan. In my opinion it's not too noisy but we keep it in our living room so I'm not sure if it would be too loud to sleep at night. It works very well.

It stays on all night. You can set a timer. I bought it because I wanted the all night option.
