How does this do with heat? The door I want to put it on is right next to our (exposed) furnace, and the door can get pretty warm.

I honestly don't know. I have it in my basement where it's always below 75 degrees F. It's vinyl so I would think it would be ok to a certain temp. But the adhesive might wear off and it would fall down if the door got too hot.

I don't know as we haven't taken it out of the shipping tube yet. Ours will go on an upstairs bedroom door where temp stays pretty moderate. My only concern on your door next to the furnace would be that it might actually melt to the door rather than causing it to fall off.

No. The heating element stays on when the door is open. I verified this by opening the door and then setting the timer, which turns on the oven. I put my hand inside, and I could feel the heat from the oven starting to heat up.

Not to worrie. I can't say what temp. it gets to, but I have seen no problem with the external heat. Even when I broiled a chicken breast at 400 degrees with the door cracked open, there was not much heat outside the unit. My upper cabinet is rather high, but I would feel very save with it under one that was closer to the top of my oven.

If you leave it in the sun it will get hotter than if you put it in the shade, naturally. However if the dog is left in a location where this is no shade at all then I presume this would be better than sitting exposed in the hot sun on a hot day. For the summer do not attach the optional door or it will heat up like a locked car. But I would recommend the optional door flaps for the winter. Personally I would put the house in a location where it would be shaded in the summer, at least for part of the day.

The sides and door get warm. The top gets hot which is normal for similar toaster ovens.I've owned several toaster ovens over the years, but this is the best!

Mine has been warm ever since I got it. I've been using it for months now without a problem. It's sitting on a shelf in the garage and I propped it up with an extra nut that I had in my toolbox to make sure there was some airflow.It's just noticeably warm, not hot. I can keep my hand on it. So far, so good.

I use this in a 2-car garage and it heats relatively well. My garage is not insulated, so the area I work in is warm, and the entire garage gets relatively warmer. I turn it on only when I am working.

To reiterate what the other said, you do not have to install the doors. You should though. If you're worried about overheating, they can be left open and it's open in the back.

Give it some time to warm up and then put your hand over the top. You will feel the heat. I didn't believe it either, but it's been working for months now. I still check it every time I open the safe.

I don't recall it getting that hot. We use it in our bathroom which is about 6 X 8 and I never noticed it getting that hot. I really don't think you have anything to be concerned about as far a safety. I just know it has worked very well for us the past 2 winters and we have enjoyed it. We will be using it here very soon and if I do notice anything I will let you know.

It does get pretty warm right where the heat comes out. I have touched it before, but it didn't burn me. It is still pretty warm tho.

I don't know for sure, but I think it works with both heat and light. I think that the exterior door would be insulated to prevent the heat attraction and as long as the seal on the door is good light should not be a problem either.

I have put this on my rv under the new plywood roof. When your handling it you can feel the heat of your body reflecting back to the touch. I warm the garage up to work on rv almost done and overnight the trailer is warm inside when I go to work in garage. Cant wait to see how much cooler it will be during summer heat. Material is easy to work with tough not flimsy. Putting what's left over in my house attic also .

The front doors to both ovens get pretty hot. I would not advise touching them when cooking.

It gets very warm. Must use handle to open door. But not excessively hot. I have had other ovens that gave off much more heat
