5 sourced reports, with what to check before you buy. Each one links to the page it was reported on.
Owner Selma reports the unit cycled on/off with a ticking sound on the very first day of use, immediately after purchase.
What to check. A brand-new unit exhibiting this behavior indicates a quality-control or design fault in the control circuitry, not user error. Test the unit immediately on delivery and return it if it cycles.

Owner Erol reports the unit stops and restarts by itself from the first use, never running continuously; authorized service claimed repair but the problem persisted unchanged.
What to check. If buying, expect a real risk the unit will not run a full cycle. If owning, the failure appears within warranty in this case, but service did not resolve it — push for replacement rather than repair.

Owner reports rapid on/off cycling from the first use, and after roughly 2 years the unit completely stopped powering on — now out of warranty.
What to check. This pattern suggests the cycling is not a transient defect but a progressive failure of the control/power circuitry. If you own one that cycles, expect it may eventually fail entirely; replacement parts after warranty will likely cost more than a new unit.

Owner Samet reports the unit repeatedly stops and restarts by itself, making it unusable.
What to check. This is the same mid-cycle shutdown pattern reported by multiple owners. The unit cannot complete a cooking cycle, so food will be undercooked or the process is interrupted entirely.

Owner Beren reports the unit worked initially but began cycling on/off by itself shortly after purchase, becoming unusable; the complaint title states service did not resolve the problem.
What to check. Even when the unit works at first, the cycling fault can appear within weeks. The complaint title indicates authorized service failed to fix it, so a repair may not be a reliable remedy.

Kriko reads a listing and tells you which of these apply to that exact product. It runs on your computer, needs no account and is free.
These reports come from the pages linked under each item: owner forums, repair guides and workshops. They are not a diagnosis of any one unit, and a careful check of the one you are buying still applies.
