does the flip up part lock when in the up position?

yes, it does lock in the open position.The push button under the chin used to unlock the flip up part and raise it, is the same one used to unlock it from the raised position & lower it. Hope this helps you out.Ryan

Technically there is no 'lock' in the up position but more of a 'click' that keeps it in place. To raise, there is a button just in front of your chin that you push to unlock. As you push up there you will come to a point with increased tension. Push through the tension and you will feel the flip up part pop into place. This is enough to keep it in place until you physically pull the piece back down. Hope this helps.

Yes it easily flips out with the index finger IF you don't have it locked. The lock can be tightened open or removed if you like.

NO - and YES, it is SUPPOSED TO BUT DOES NOT. It does lock, as indicated by someone's answer - but that "lock" does not hold. It continues to roll.

Yes. You press the button down and slide the lock up to keep the button pressed.

My handles click and lock when open. It does not lock in the folded position.

I agree with the other answer - it only locks when it's in the upright position.

There are 2 knobs that adjust the tightness of the mirror, I've not had a problem with it flipping unless you make it flip.

It does "lock," but not in the way I believe you are saying (there is no latch to unlock it if that's what you mean). If you extend it out fully, it will "lock" but a push will retract it back in. Just the same when it is fully retracted, it "locks" into place there as well, but again, with a slight pull, it comes unlocked. It is not a free flowing slide. Confusing I know, but I hope it makes some sense.

It does lock out at full extension. It doesn't really lock in, but it isn't loose in a way where that would matter.

Yes it does. You can also toggle a switch on the side to lock it in either orientation.

Yes it has a locking position, once the button is pushed it stays on until you push the button again.

Yes it does. There is lever on the side that locks in whatever position you want it to be in.

Yes either down or up in several positions with a click which keeps it in that position.

I don't think that the flipping actually has a real benefit. It really only flips over to lock as far as I know. It has heating elements on both sides so I don't think, other than locking the iron, flipping it does anything

Yes - the lever that controls the vertical (height) also locks/unlocks the tilt.

Thank you for your question! Once you twist the top to choose your desired setting, the mechanism should stay in place until you decide to change it.
