does this have an emergency mechanism to turn put out the flame in case it tips over?

This unit has the turn valve to control and or turn the gas on or off. In case of tip over , their is NO mechanism that would automatically turn this off.

Yes, there is a button on the bottom that is depressed when the unit is sitting upright. If tipped over or lifted up, it will shut off.

Mine does. Trying to drop the flame snuffer is a small challenge though. I love mine.

No, it does not. Another thing you should be aware of, is, it is not fully enclosed.I thought there would be a protective glass in front of the flames, but it is open.This unit puts out a lot of heat. Our family is very happy with it's performance.We installed it on our three season sun porch, and we have been able to use this room now during the Vermont winter months.

The wire to secure the fuel block does not wrap all the way across so if it fell off before it burnt out it could potentially start a fire. When we lit then though they went up so high, so fast that I have a feeling it would go out before it hit ground (or tree, house, etc)

No, it does not tip over. There is a post in the middle of the pot to keep the hose in the center of the pot which keeps the pot from becoming off balance.

It does not have a shut off if it tips over. It gets pretty warm to the touch but not terribly.

No, there is a lock switch for that. With this design you can click the igniter until the flame catches, then you lock the gas open.

It does have a switch on the bottom that turns the unit off if it tips over. If set back upright, the heater will turn back on.

No problem. Put the lid back on to smother the flame. Remove the top and re-light at your convenience.

Two prongs you can set for low or high heat it can be set to rotate or not. I believe it will shut off if tiped over have not tried tipping it over. It is very bright and can light up a room. We use it to keep our plants from freezing. I would not purchase this heater again because it puts out so much light.

No the flame tip is the plastic. This in not a bulb where the flame moves. Both of mine burned out within 9 months and the company was unhelpful, so be careful.

Not sure about automatic shut off but if it tips over it will cut off on its on as a safety procedure

Yes it has a knob that lowers the flame for less heat and ups the flame for more heat. Great ambiance :)

No. The flame is below a heat shield that evenly distributes the heat. The grill is ready to go out of the box.

It has overheat shutoff protection. I am not sure about tip over auto shutoff. We are very pleased with heater for both aesthetics and function.

No, but it is small and compact, unlikely to tip over. Move important is - NEVER USE HIGH HEAT. Use low or medium. High will trip a breaker or burn a hole in the wall.
