Does this iron have an automatic shut off

Yes there is an automatic shut off. If you leave the iron horizontal "Hot" side down, off in 30-seconds. Leave iron in vertical on its stand, off in 15-minutes.

yes it does...if it is knocked over or if you leave it in the horizontal position, it will stop heating after 30 seconds. If it is in the upright position, and not touched for 15 minutes, it stops heating. A little red light blinks to let you know that it is no longer heating.

Yes it does. The on/off lever is under the handle and should auto shut off. If not you've got a defective model

Hi Deborah. No It does not switch off automatically, so it is important you do not forget it turned on. However it is a great iron. Now that I have it I cannot do without it.

Sorry, don't know. I don't multi-task when I iron, so have never encountered an auto turn off. Also can't find my manual to see if it mentions that feature.

No. Just one of the many reasons I purchased this iron. I have owned many many expensive irons which did not live up to their advertised claims. This iron actually does. No spitting, etc. I have the option to keep this iron on (when I am quilting) and auto shut-off when I am not. Great iron.

Nancy, it does not have auto shut off. But it is still a great curling iron!

It does not shut off automatically-it can be on all day. I would NOT recommend a gravity feed iron. I had a nightmare of a time with it spitting brown stuff all over the fabric every time I used it. I tried everything and now have given up. I am now using the professional model Rowenta.

The "auto-off " safety device turns the iron off if left unused for 30 seconds in the horizontal position or 15minutes in the upright position This is the manual.http://www.frontgate.com/wcsstore/images/Frontgate/moreinfo/59059.pdf

I have owned several and don't think it has automatic shut off...but remains the best for the money I have ever owned...only problem is Pouring Spout handles...have broken two...and replacements are not available.

There is no timer, I don't believe it shuts off by itself, haven't happened to me. It's a great iron.

I was in JoAnn's the other day and they had this one. Rowenta DX8900 Professional Iron with No Auto Shut-Off

I purchased this iron to use with interfacing and transfers. Frankly I am a bit anal about turning off my things and cannot accurately answer your question. That being said the instructions do not mention an automatic shut off function.

No it does not auto shut off, You have the choice of off, low and high heat. I never run mine on high as low does quite well.

It does not have an actual off switch, however, when you hold down the temp up button the power turns off. The bigger issue is that the iron I have does not heat up enough to iron my clothes. I should have returned this

No, it does not it goes from lowest to max with the turn of a dial. All though when reading the manual it does refer to the lowest position as the off position but in reality it does not click to an off point. So you do have to unplug the iron. Then again I would do that with any iron.

No. Nothing shuts off automatically. Everything has to be attended, but it is a great machine.
