Does this Fan turn off it tipped over?

No it does not. I just turned it on and layed it down, and it still was running. However it would take some doing to knock it over as it is quite sturdy weight wise.

Not if you lay it gently on it's side but I have no idea what happens if say a child or a pet knocks it over with a little force. I didn't want to kick it and find out, sorry.

I know it turns off if it overheats but I do not believe that it carries the tip over/turn off feature. It is very sturdy though and both my children and my dogs have knocked against it and it stood still.

no, but it is the best fan for the buck. We love it and use it every night !!!

Yes. You can tilt it down. I have it mounted high on a wall in front of my bed with it tilted down toward my bed. I use the remote to turn it off & on and to adjust the speed. Great fan!

NO, the controls are on top and the base has a safety switch on to cut power if it is tipped.

Yes, the "switch" to stop the oscillation is next to the knob that adjusts the speed of the fan.

Mine does, either downwards or upwards, I don't remember exactly (haven't used it since the summer). It's because the adjusters on the side get a bit loose over time as the fan is functioning. It didn't bother me. It only happened after several days (very slowly, that's what I mean).

No, the fan stays on. In heat mode it turns off. This works the same way identically as on my Friedrich unit with simular specs (but this one is more powerful)

The owner's manual for the Vornado AVH2 says the unit is equipped with "Tip-Over Protection". If tipped over the power to the heating element and fan motor is reduced to prevent overheating. It does not shut off.

It does not have an automatic cut off when the desired setting is reached. It is stated in the product instructions that the fan runs continuously. It is a very effective energy star rated unit and the fan is quiet.

Yes it does. Even if you move it and pick it up and tilt the fan it stops working.

The fan tilts both up and down...Do NOT tilt fan manually, use the oscillating feature to get to the desired position, then turn the oscillating feature off.

No, it doesn't turn off automatically as such -- the fan stays on as long as the unit is on. But the humidity control is automatic. For example, if you leave it at 40% the fan will run with humid air coming out the top until the relative humidity reaches 40%, then the humid air will stop coming out but the fan will remain on until the sensor determines that moist air should come on again.

It does Not have a tilting base . It o only leans back slightly at a 10-15 degree angle. But the base is sufficiently wide and study (in case you have frisky cats that may bump into it when running around.) Also, the airflow pattern is wide...even at a foot away from the fan. -BB

Hi. I don't think so. I just turned it on & tipped it onto its side and it did not shut off.Jannet

I believe there is a switch on top of fan for that function. Might want to confirm with manufacture.

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.

No, it does not tip over. It stands up straight. I have my laptop, an ipad and a kindle and it doesn't tip over
