most electric stoves do not typically have an automatic shutoff feature like some gas stoves do. Gas stoves often come equipped with a safety feature known as a "flame failure device," which automatically shuts off the gas supply if the flame goes out. This is a safety measure to prevent gas leaks.

On the other hand, electric stoves usually rely on manual control by the user. When you turn off an electric stove, the heating elements or burners will stop generating heat, but the stove itself will remain on standby until you physically switch it off or unplug it from the power source.

However, keep in mind that technology and product features can change over time. There might be newer models or brands introduced that have implemented automatic shutoff features for electric stoves. I recommend checking with appliance manufacturers or retailers to see if any recent models offer such functionalities. Always refer to the specific product documentation and features when purchasing an electric stove to be sure about its capabilities.
