Yes, it is an automatic shutoff. Once the water boils the switch clicks off.

Mine is a little over a year old and does not automatically shut off. It does brew a wonderful pot of coffee though and I simply turn it off when pouring my first cup.

Yes. I generally set a timer for about 17 minutes then turn it off myself, just because I don't want to forget and it doesn't have any sort of beeper. Once the water boils out it turns itself off.

This coffee maker DOES NOT have an automatic shut off, and it has been a problem. When purchasing, I never thought that it wouldn't have automatic shut off. We purchased a timer, and that has solved our burnt coffee problem.

Hi, no the hot plate doesn't shut off automatically. I have inadvertently left it on all day and only had a slightly burnt pot Hope this helps.

You can hear a small noise of the heating, nothing intrusive, and after the water has boiled, you hear a little click to indicate the kettle has turned off. These noises are nothing like the whistle of a regular tea kettle. I keep 2 kettles, one at home and one at work, and both are rather quiet.

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.

Yes, there is; and also I noticed that when it turns off (water boiled) you hear a little "click"... So you definitely know when the kettle turns off.

Yes once the water has boiled it switches itself off. Also the kettle sits atop a corded plate that powers it; so you can lift the kettle to easily disconect it from the cord and base, but still be advised you can't place the kettle into water when cleaning it because it has electrical components on the bottom that must be kept dry. Also I read a review that the inside stainless steel rusts, that is most likely due to condensation so I suggest leaving the lid open when you are done with it to let the wet evaporate out the opened lid. I had this kettle for less than a year and so far no issues. Yes once the water has boiled it switches itself off.

Yes it does automatically shut off. I returned it because it was awkward to carry and pour. The handle is stationary and the cover is completely detachable.

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. Mine turns off automatically if I have the water running for a long time. I actually like this feature. It does save water.

no this does not have an automatic shut off. A suggestion would be to have it set on a timer if this is a concern otherwise see if you can locate one that will shut off.

Yes. Once the water boils - the kettle shuts itself off. It works great - is fast and really convenient. Great buy!

The kettle does not have a keep warm feature but it has an automatic shut off function that turns off the kettle once it comes to a full boil.
