Will this sound machine stay on all night if you want it to, OR does it automatically shut off at 90 minutes, thereby waking me up and having to keep

Stays on all night. Nice little machine. The only issue I have with mine is the headphone jack will pop out on occasion.

Hi, The machine comes with two options, the first is to leave on all night or you can program, with the touch of a button, to have it turn itself off after 60 minutes. I have used both and have found that I do not need to leave it on for more than the 60 minutes, ever. When I have needed this machine to wipe out the external noise at night, it has never failed to lure me to sleep. I just use the surf two setting and it is pure gold for me. I am a very light sleeper so minimal noise wakes me up and then I cannot return to sleep. I just love this product and highly recommend it to others. Hope this satisfies your questions.

As far as I know, there is no automate shutoff. It stays on until you turn it off. We love ours and have two, one for home and one for trips.

It will stay on all night - been using this model for the past 4 years on an almost nightly basis and it's rock solid.

It will automatically turn off in an hour. You would have to wake up and turn it back on.

Dear Mozzer, The auto sleep function is engaged if no music has been sent to the Nova for 5 minutes. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance! Regards, Eric Cohen World Wide Stereo

I have had mine for years and years but I can't really answer! I use the alarm sound which will go off ten separate times probably 30 sec. Or so apart. I have had on since around 1978-ish and am only on my second one. I t is set for 4 separate alarms. I love the convenience of being able to grab my alarm and a couple containers when we go to my son's for an overnight. Good size too for the purse don't you agree? If you haven't purchased it yet I suggest you do. Enjoy.

I haven't owned it too yet but at about half volume it lasted for four hours before I turned it off, so it could run for longer just don't know how much longer. Decent sound quality.

I have never had the sounds malfunction. You can choose a 15/30/60 minute timer, or keep it on all night like we do.

It has a timer if you only want it to operate for a set time. Otherwise it plays continuously. It's the best product I've ever found, and I've owned sound machines for many years! Its sound range is from quite low to VERY loud - excellent to sleep through announcements on cruises!

yes, it will always start with the sound it was on when turned off. I love mine, by the way- helps me sleep like nothing else!

We never shut ours off.... however it goes into sleep mode and when I pull up the the part to release the pod it dooes make a hissing noise which is the extra pressure being released and then is sounds like a slight whining sound while it prepairs itself for the next use. However er have had 2 machines and for several years (gave one to my sister because I wanted a different color) and both did the same thing since the first use and one machine is 3 and the other 1.5 years old. If the sound is very loud I would call customer support. Hope it helps.

As long as you want.... I created an alarm playlist (with hazard alarms etc.) that is about an hour long and it plays through the playlist until I stop the alarm (or quit hitting snoooooze).

It shuts off after 10 or 12 hours........way too long for me. I usually turn it on 1 hour before I go to bed, turning it off when I get into bed. Bed stays nice and toasty until I fall asleep. (Course I also have 3 little dogs under the covers with me. :)

The only way you can shut it off is by pausing a song and then press the hold button. It will go off and say see you later. Goodluck!!

Yes it does have time shut off's I did not like all the sounds that were pre chosen for you but you do have a choice of sounds, I gave it to my girlfriend as a gift and she loves it.

If you don't press one of the timer buttons, it will stay on indefinitely, so yes it would stay on all night. Just beware, the sound quality is far inferior to a plug-in sound machine, and the thing WILL break on you. Mine has gradually lost functions and we've only used it occasionally (once or twice a week for 1-2 hours at a time, usually for napping baby while out and about). The volume control stopped working, then the power control broke so I have to take a battery out to turn it off (it is the same dial to control volume and on/off) and now only one of the four sounds plays, I can't get it to change. For occasional use I'm willing to put up with it. If you don't press one of the timer buttons, it will stay on indefinitely, so yes it would stay on all night.

It will play until you turn it off, so yes it will. It also has an option to set a timer for it to turn off on it's own but you do not have to set the timer if you want it to play all night.

Mine goes into sleep mode after about 15 minutes, it is not normal for it to stay on. I would exchange it.

It goes off for about 30 seconds at a time. If it gets bumped or not continually sensing movement it resets itself. If its getting moved or constantly sensing movement it will continually sound off, and by the way it is LOUD!
