Does this kettle have a BEEP or some kind of sound indicator that tells you when it has reached the set temperature? Does it automatically shut off?

Yes it does have a beep and shuts off automatically. The beep is not very loud. I have had 3 of these and when they are working they are great. All developed a problem with the base not making contact and not turning on. I have since switched to the Magic Mill MEK-200 which is half the price and have had no problems.

Yes, to both. When set to simply go to full boil, it will beep three times when it reaches temp, then shuts off the heating element. When set to a lower temp, it will beep when it reaches that temp, then will cycle the element on and off to keep the temp approximately where desired. In that latter case, it will not completely shut off since it would defeat the purpose. However, once you lift the kettle off the base, everything resets to 'zero' - no heating, only the display on the kettle lit.

It has no annoying beep. I set it to brew before I get up, and it has hot coffee waiting for me. There is no warming plate, because it is in a thermal carafe. It stays hot for several hours without any possiblilty of scortching. I am very happy with my coffee pot!

It does it automatically . No need to worry. I turn off the stove as the whistling sound starts but leave it on the stove. It does the rising etc insted of whistling.

No beep at all. A blue light is on while heating and the kettle turns itself off when hot

The Egg Cooker does not have an automatic shutoff. It detects when all of the water has evaporated during the cooking process and then emits a very audible beeping sound. You then have to manually switch it off. It would be more convenient to have an auto-shutoff but it is not a big deal as long as you are in the general vicinity of the cooker--the beep is loud enough to be heard a few rooms away. It works great.

Yes, it has a beep indicator. It beeps when you adjust the desired temperature, when it reaches the target temperature, etc.

It does NOT whistle. There is a small hole in the lid with no other apparent purpose, and I tried to get it to whistle (simply out of curiosity, because I don't need it), but no sound. Otherwise a solid & useful kettle.

it will beep "alarm" when the water is absorbed/eggs are done. you don't need to worry about the time/measuring the water because there are lines on the bottom where you put the water that are marked "soft/hard" whatever you prefer, you just fill the water up to the mark. the chirping/beeping when it's done will continue until you unplug the unit. no on/off as soon as you plug it in it is on. I hope I gave you all the info you needed! I loved this thing, mine finally died after using it every week for almost 2 years, I bought a different one and I regret it!

The kettle comes up to temp and then stays there for a period of time... it automatically shuts off. You will love it!

No. you just hear the water boiling sound. And it just quietly, automatically turns off when the water is ready.

Yes it boils the water and auto turns off. The kettle comes off the part that is plugged in when done.

It does not beep when done. Brews very quickly and you can hear it brewing and will know when it is done as it will go silent. Will stay heating for two hours and then shut off. Love this machine!

Never heard a beep. It just shuts off, even the heating plate does not stay on. I have returned the one I bought. Really frustrated with the thermal carafe. Although it does keep the coffee hot for a long while, I would suggest you put a towel down before serving out of this thing. Thanks for letting me vent . .

Yes, it shuts off automatically. However, if you lift the kettle from its base before it clicked off and put it back, it will keep boiling (and then turns off when it's ready.) Other models I've had in the past switched off when the kettle was picked up. You get used to it though.

No--it does not whistle. The only sound it makes is the click of the automatic shut-off when it has boiled--and you also hear that the sound of boiling has stopped.

It does not whistle, it turns off automatically and you can hear the click when it's done. It's not too loud but you can definitely hear it. Boiling is not too loud either. This tea pot is perfect! We use it everyday. Would highly recommend.

Yes, it beeps and goes into Keep Warm after cooking. It also has an Off button.The other cycles are really useful, too. I really like this cooker. Just don't bother with the frittata recipe; it will keep turning itself off, which is frustrating. Use the recipe in an electric skillet or on the stovetop.
