Is this timer suitable for cooking?

I would think so. It is a count down timer. You set it for a length of time and it counts down to zero and the alarm chirps.

This timer is excellent once you know how to use it. You can time two things at once. I thought the instructions were a little confusing. Hit T1 and then put in your hours(HR) and your minutes (MIN) and your seconds(SEC) and then press S/S. It will flash and count down. When your time is done it will beep. Hit S/S to turn the timer off. So S/S means start and stop. To reset the time you hit T1 or T2 (which ever one you are using---then hit the M button. This will clear the timer. Good magnet on the back. So I keep it on the fridge.

Yes. Two simple ways are to: 1. Press the "Add 30 Sec" button. Each press adds 30 seconds. 2. Press the "Cooking Menu" button and then select "Cook by Time". You can then rotate the knob to select the amount of time.

Yes, the Start button will automatically cook for 30 sec. after you hit it.

No. The 'programmable' part only lets you set the amount of time you want it to cook on high or low.

Yes. I have used both. That is the reason I choose this timer after reading reviews by other customers.

You can not use the timer while the microwave is cooking or cook while the timer is running. I think thats what your asking :)

This one has no timer. There are plenty of programmable models, but this is the only one I know of with 100% stainless steel as cooking surface.

to the best of my knowledge there was no timer option. I would say I am about 75% sure on this. I would check, but I do not have the unit near by.

Yes it has a timer. It can be set for 30 minute increments. For example; start cooking two hours from now.

Yes. To cook you have to put the amount of time in. It shuts off when the time is up.

Maybe, maybe not. Double check to see if your current timer is 120 volts, some are higher voltage then this might not work. If it is 120 then this will probably work, but I am not an expert by any stretch.

Yes. I had it set for cooking my turkey breast today for 2.5 hours...it was great.

Yes, it works just fine. I still would watch the cooking time, just as if I was cooking on the stove.
480461
Yes. But I have trouble figuring out how to time cooking; I mostly just use the pre-set times by pushing 1 (for 1 min.) or 2, etc.
936600
Yes, you can. Programming it can be a bit tricky, especially if you are not used to digital timers.

Sure you can, it's ideal for this kind of purpose. That's exactly what I would use it for. We've had excellent results with this particular timer, and as far as I'm concerned it's the best one on the market, based on extensive experience.

I would think you could plug it into a generic timer and the timer will turn on the slow cooker when you set it to do so.
