I think you have to turn it off, I do not believe it has a safety auto-off on it.

The heat plate stays on until you turn the coffee maker off. It does not have an auto-shut off.

I don't really know because I've always turned it off after an hour or so, but I've never had a problem. This has been a dependable little coffee maker without all the bells and whistles, which is exactly what I wanted.

It does not turn off on it's own. I've bought 3 of these pots. Have bought several others much more expensive. However as I have hard water they only last about a year. The Proctor Silex usually lasts 1-1/2-2 years and is much cheaper.

I bought this for my parents. They say their food stays hot 20-30 minutes depending on the plate used, they use polishstone ware plates which is very heavy & they say about 20 minutes. They do heat in a little longer than the directions says. Hope this helps.

Your question is ambiguous. If you mean "Does the heater turn off while heating the beverage?", the answer is no. It will keep your beverage warm until it dies.If you mean "How long before it dies?", it's about a month. Read the 1-star reviews.

There is an auto feature which will turn the heated mattress pad off after 10 hours. That is the only "timer" feature. Most people use this for sleeping. I find the 2 or 3 setting to be the most comfortable to take the chill off the sheets.

Not real long. About 45 min. Maybe if you wrap plate in foil it would stay warm longer.

I often leave mine on continuously overnight and for several days. Just ensure your heat setting is not too high.

Never had it over heat. The only time it stops heating of is when safety switch on bottom of the unit cuts power off when moving. As soon as its on floor, it turns on again. I have five units.

I leave mine on for around 15 hours, but have not left it on any longer, I never leave the house with a appliance on. But it does not take that long to heat a full pot, it also has a reboil button and a 6 hour delay feature. I really like this pot.

No, you must turn it off once the done light goes out. About 15 minutes. It hasn't been a problem as I'm usually in the kitchen doing other things.

Hi, no the hot plate doesn't shut off automatically. I have inadvertently left it on all day and only had a slightly burnt pot Hope this helps.

The cord is removable, you can heat the plate--remove the cord--and it will stay hot/warm for about an hour or so.

That depends on how long it's been on. It will go off after 8 or so hours. But if it happens right when you put it on and it doesn't heat in about 1/2 hour or so, call Amazon and see about returning it for one that works. Mine goes on and I put it where I want it set and it stays there for approximately 8 or so hours. I can turn it down or up when I feel that is needed.

I have not turned my unit off for a period of time. I only turn it off to clean it. Sorry I can't help you.

Better turn it off as soon as the power outage happens. Don't take risks with space heaters, no matter how safe they are.

It shuts off after about 3(ish) hours - don't know exact time. Also, FYI - If the pot is empty and you forget to turn it off after pouring the last cup, the hot plate will stay hot for the remainder of that 3 hour(ish) period.

It is supposed to be 2 minutes, it has never shut off too soon for me to get the job done. I love it - you can weigh a plate, then the food on the plate, and it subtracts the weight of the plate. (tare, I guess) great deal for the money.
