Do any of these stoves remain cool to the touch? Do any of these Electric Stoves remain cool to the touch?

They are all cool to the touch. The only heat is at the bottom of the unit, so there is no danger of 'burning' yourself or anyone else if it is touched anywhere (unless you stick your fingers in the element on the bottom!). You can actually sit on it while it is in full operation with no ill effects! (not recommended unless you are a lightweight! ;-)

I have a glass top electric stove top and it works great. It takes a moment to figure out the right temperature but once that is resolved, it is good to go. I wash it after it has cooled slightly and it cleans up well. If anything sticks, just let it soak.

They get real hot. We have a Wolfe Stove and a commercial stainless steel hood, where we use them, so it doesn't matter to us. But deepening on where you put them, I guess it ound be ignificant. They are very hard to find.

Mine stays relatively cool compared to my last toaster oven. I wouldn't purposely grab hold of it but if you brush it you won't get burned.

It's pretty darn hot even at its lowest setting. It has cut out on me a few times when I really try and dial it down. Overall a great stove. Super hot.

I have mine on hardwood floor, but I haven't noticed the floor getting very warm underneath. The flames look surprisingly real, I was very happy. Of coarse if you are standing or sitting right in front of it they do not look real. I have a very small bedroom. My stove is on the opposite wall from my bed, maybe about 4.5 or 5 feet and it looks amazing.Hope this helps

The saucepan handles stay reasonably cool when on the stove. The short handles on the pots won't stay cool.

I'm actually not sure I have a regular electric stove. I would guess it would be of but I wouldn't have it on extreme heat since those pans can get very hot.

No Hotspots! Cooks evenly. It's suppose to be energy efficient versus a stovetop. We need a new stove. In the meantime we are using this. Agree with I am buying a second one. I would too if we had more counter space. :-)

I also have electric, and once you get your temperature adjusted it works just fine. It's just a little trickier adjusting the temp with electric because, at least with my stove, the heat switches are staged rather than infinite. Short answer? I got good results with electric.

I use high heat with mine and they are fine. I have electric, so not quit sure, just would make sure dishes are centered on burner.

I use them all over my house they do NOT get hot. Even after hours you can touch them and not get burned.

I have a gas stove on which I use it regularly, but I did use it once at my brother's home on an electric stove top, and it worked fine with no damage.

Yes, all of the heater is cool to the touch if it is running as it is now. I touched it everywhere and felt no heat.

Hi, my stove is electric and i do just fine. I use the largest burner. I've heard from others that sometimes the heat temp is hard to maintain, but i dont have that problem. Here's what I do: I turn my electric burner on HIGH (like #9) to get it going. After i vent the valve for 10 minutes and put the weighted gauge on I wait for it to come to 10lbs pressure (10lbs is for my altitude below 1000'). AFTER the gauge reads 10lbs of pressure I turn my burner down to #5 (which is like MEDIUM). Each and every time I've done it this way the pressure remained the same. Sometimes I would have to turn it up to 5 1/2, as 6 was too much heat. You must stay wit h the canner for the whole time you are using it to make sure it maintains the right pressure for whatever you are canning. I did have a glass top stove but i never canned on it. It cracked one day while i was boiling water. For me, I would not can on an electric glass stove. Hope this helps.

The handles stay cool on the stovetop. The lid handle does get hot on high heat but not at lower temps.

It didn't on my electric stove top, but I now have a gas range and if the oven or another burner are also on, it does get too warm to the touch. I use my cast iron sleeve on it.
