    How would it know which one to turn off if you had multiple things on? Timer could just as easily be for add the next ingredient as it could be for stop cooking.

      I’m really confused why “turn off my stove” would be the presumed functionality. Someone must’ve lied to them because no stoves do that. Otherwise, why would they suddenly assume that’s what a timer was doing?

      You select the active hob and set the desired timer. Usually the timer is either limited to a single hob at once, in more premium alternatives you might be able to set one for each hob individually.

      I’ve only ever seen this in separate cooktops though, not in stoves.
