Model number 155 has an automatic 20 minute timer. Check out ASIN B000ZHJS0G.

I have been using this heating pad since summer last year, every night and sometimes days too. I do not care about the wattage as long as it is working. It does not auto-shut off. It never shuts off unless you shut it off. I don't know what the manual says. I'm a real user - not a spokesperson.

You're welcome! It works well... just be prepared to keep cutting it back on every 15 min or so. ...I wanted a pad with 'auto on' but most all have this auto cutoff safety feature that can get a little annoying..

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

Yes. There's a button on the bottom and if the heater isn't sitting flat, pushing this button in, it will turn off.

You should install a pressure switch if you want the pump to shut off automatically.

In my experience it switches to a "keep warm" setting but does not automatically shut off.

Yes. Unfortunately, like all heating pads now, it goes off after a certain time. Thankfully, with this one it lasts an hour or two. Just love how we're all "protected" now because we're apparently too stupid to use things correctly. Sorry. Venting. :)

I have been through 4 of them too. All of a sudden a red light flashes on the controller and if you unplug it and then plug it back in it works for a while. This is the signal that the heating pad is starting to fail.

No u can not turn off manually. U can only reset once it disconnects automatically do to low voltage. There is a model with a remote that might do that

Not that I have found...however, it does not turn off totally, so if you wake up and the red light is blinking, it does reheat really quickly. I don't know why, but I am glad this feature is available. I have horrible arthritis complicated by disease that doesn't allow regular blood supply to my extremities, so they are always cold. What I really love about this heating pad is that once it has been used and the red light is still blinking hours later, you can heat it up much quicker than if it had been manually turned off. It is really important to me year round that I can warm my hands and feet quickly. This is the best heating pad that I have found for the purposes that I need heating pads for...plus, it is really large so I can wrap my hands and even my feet up in pads for extra warmth. I have not seen a heating pad without the "auto off" feature in years...I think there have been too many law suits. Have you thought of an electric blanket or heated mattress pad? I hope this info helps you make a safe decision. I understand your point, but would also suck if you woke up with a major burn or an electrical fire!

I don't think it has an auto shut of. Mine does not sit off either, so I put a thermostat on the outlet.

There is a 'load' power switch in the upper right hand corner that does what you want ... unless you leave the switch ON, there is NO automatic. HTH.

You can program in the time you want it to cook and it will automatically turn off. Nothing that's plugged in is completely safe but I do leave the house while it's cooking. I just love this product!

No, the pad does not feature automatic shut off. Thank you for your question.

It has a switch to turn on and it shuts off automatically. It is very convenient.

I don't think so. I actually like the auto shut off feature. It keeps me from leaving the heating pad on all day.
