Does it shut off in a short time automatically? Not an advantage for me. I Like one to stay on until I want to shut it off.

So long as I have the AC adapter plugged in and my calculator is running on the transformers power it doesn't shut off. I don't know what happens when it's on battery power? If it doesn't time out and shut off, then for sure it's going to shut down when the batteries die.

Stays on until you shut it off. I use batteries only so I must remember to do so or risk loosing the batteries and the cost of replacing them. That said, the batteries last a long time. If you have a business, using the cord is financially more sound but I recommend turning off all electronics with the exception of your desktop computer...

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

Yes, it shuts off automatically. I have been very pleased with this product!

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.

Yes, it will turn off by itself. It does stay on about a minute or so. I have never timed it. I would suggest using rechargeable batteries.

There is no way to turn it off, but after a short time it powers off by itself. However, if you barely touch it, it will come back on again. I just put mine in a place where I won't bump it when I'm done.

It does have an auto off feature. If there is no operation, the unit powers off between 3 and 5 minuets. It is a great tool and very accurate. I really like mine.

No, it auto shuts off after about 20 minutes. It runs off batteries with no rechargeable plugs, so it conserves its battery life this way.

I just saw your question. I didn't have this flat iron very long as I gave it as a gift to someone. I do not remember it having an automatic shut off.

This one doesn't have an automatic shut off. You have to unplug it to turn it off.

I haven't seen any auto shut-off. Even read the booklet to check but it does't mention any, so I would say no.

No, it doesn't turn off by itself...to my chagrin. I have forgotten it and left it on overnight quite a few times myself.

Auto shut off kicks in after 60 seconds of idle.No. You have to touch it/use it within the 60 secs period.

Unfortunately, it will only turn off automatically. I wanted it to turn on automatically too, but it does not.

It goes off at the time you set. Or close to that that. I didn't notice premature turn off, of that's the questions.

I believe it does not stay on. It only is in when it triggers. I'm sorry I can't be too specific, I don't have it anymore

To add to Rachel's comment, the fan will stay on for a short while when the unit is shut off (or it is automatically shut off via the thermostat). This may be a safety feature to cool the inside down and/or extract the remaining heat.
