Does this iron have an automatic shutoff? Or does it stay on forever until you turn it off?

From what I have noticed using this it does not have an automatic shut off.

It does not. I have accidentally left it on before and have come back 8 hours later to it still fully heated and on.

You turn the dial on top of the iron (under the handle) to set the proper temperature and to turn it off. I've really enjoyed this iron.

No it is not auto shut-off but a great curling iron. I love it and use it all the time.

This was my first time ordering this iron so I cannot say. However I love it because it has automatic shut off if it tips over.

It does have an automatic Shut Off. I do not know the how long before it shuts off. Contrary to instructions, I leave mine plugged into the accessory socket. Have for years and never had a problem.

There is no on-off button on mine. You have to unplug the iron when you want it off, and that is somewhat inconvenient.

It will shut off automatically if unused for several minutes. However, it does not have an "off" button per se.

This does not have an auto shut off feature. It is an automatically maintained burner. I have used it a few times and you do have to watch it like a regular stove burner. The burner is a good one and it heats up as expected depending on the temperture you select.

It does have automatic shut off. Which is nice since I'm forever going off and leaving things on.

If you leave the iron face down on the ironing board it will turn off if not used within a short period of time to prevent fires. If placed upright it will not turn off for a longer period of time. I had the iron upright while I placed pleats of a blouse flat and it didn't turn off. I like the turn off feature. If you get a phone call the iron will turn off and you won't burn your house down.

This means that the auto shut-off function can be bypassed. Instead of shutting off at some set time when the iron is not being moved and used, the iron will stay on and steam will be generated at any time. My wife likes this because sometimes she takes longer to sew quilt pieces together and the other steam irons she has will shut down and not be ready to steam-iron seams.

The automatic shut-off refers to the heat in the iron itself but has nothing to do with the water in the tank that has a separate control. The iron might cool off but the steam will be ready to be used use The pressure of the steam is controllable also.

If it shuts off automatically it can still turn on if moved or tipped over. You dont need to shut it off all the way in between uses if you dont want to just remember if the cat or kid knocks it over it will turn on. When you shut it off manually it stays off regardless of what you do to it. I was happy to read in the manual that it doesnt recommend that it have to be unplugged after use. My first auto iron (16yrs ago) required to be unplugged. I shut mine off manually because 8 min on high can really warm up a room quick. My studio gets hot enough with just the computer on I dont need the iron to add to the heat. If it shuts off automatically it can still turn on if moved or tipped over.

No it does not auto shut off. Maybe4 it ought to... but it has no on or off switch... you plug it in and unplug it... these are the only controls...

If you leave the iron facing down be glad it does, your place can go on fire, as you may forget and walk away!!! However, it this does it while in the upright position, there is something wrong. It should turn off within 3 to 5 minutes as it signals not being in use. Check it out with the manufacturer just to make sure. I have mine, and I simply love it. Thanks for asking me, LehighandMe

No there is no automatic shut off. The best you can do is set the timer so that you can turn it off when it reaches temperature. It does heat up pretty quickly though.
