I see conflicting answers, so owners... Do it have a turn off tip-over auto-off safety switch?

There is a mechanism within the the system that causes it to turn off when the heater is tipped over or off its base. However, that is all for nothing because the thing stopped working after 4 months. Do not buy this machine. Find a good Honeywell.

It does have a switch on the bottom that turns the unit off if it tips over. If set back upright, the heater will turn back on.

Not that I'm aware of. I have forgot to turn it off in the past & go back & it's still on. So, I'm assuming it doesn't. I'm learning to turn it off before I leave the room. But, I've been very happy with it. It does well for what I need. Thanks

My earlier reply stated that it didn't have an on off switch. It does. My error.

I've never found the auto-shut off to be a problem. Mine has never shut off automatically, and I believe that is a safety feature.

No it does not have a on-off switch. Easily unplugged however, right below the steering wheel area.

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

This Model is auto OFF according to the Directions (Red LED in upper left corner of switch)I bought this based on the fact that the first 2 people said it was not auto off.. I got it for a baby pet. It turns out the unit Does not shut off, or is bad, which is good for me as I wanted the pad to stay on, on Low. Maybe at hire temps it auto shuts off, I'll find out some other time. for $13, what do want?...

Hi, I don't know that it's designed to auto-turn-off, however, mine does that as well. Very annoying indeed!

It does not automatically turn itself off after it is filled if that is what you are asking, once it is filled up you just flip off the switch.

Does not turn off automatically. You would always know it was on because the only way it heats, is to also blow air.

Yes it does turn off if it's tipped over. It won't even turn on unless it's on a flat surface.

Hi Cathlyn,No it does not have an auto off. That's about the only thing I was dissappointed with. I just make sure I turn it off every morning. I would still by another one in a minute if this one stopped working or when it wears out someday. I'm very happy with the way it works. Jeff

It is a full ON-OFF switch. Flip the safety cover up and you can turn ON something. Flip the safety cover down and it turns OFF whatever.

No. It does not automatically turn off. It is all manual on & off operation.

Paul I have never seen an on-off switch on my unit and unless something has changed since I bought my unit awhile back there is no timeout which then shuts the unit off. I accidentally left my unit plugged into my car when I left home to go on vacation and when I came back my car battery was as dead as a door nail.

Nope no auto shut off...nothing special or extra on this, but have had it a few months now, daily useage and no problems so far.
