If I put a hoodie in this unit, would the metal zipper become too hot for comfort?

sorry, I have not used it for anything that has had metal on it. but it does not seem like it would get that hot. it's not like a dryer.

I don't think so.. I would make sure the zipper is not in contact directly with the wall... It's not like the towels are so hot you can't touch them..

I don't think it would be a severe issue. The zipper could be very hot when the hoodie first comes out but it should cool down fairly quickly since it's metal.

Maybe if you have thermic clothes on but I don't think that it would stand that temperature on its own.

Hi Karl. I own this bag and have no issues with the zipper. It is heavy duty and my experience has been that if you have any material in the way of a zipper it will tend to snag but so far not on this bag. I don't think you would be disappointed in any aspect of this bag. It is heavy, warm and very comfortable. Not a backpacker for sure. I car camp and it is perfect for my needs. So far not below 30 degrees on a tent. Good luck!

No! They zip pretty tight ! Some brands have a plastic encasement over the zipper!

yes,but I hate to change it, so I have a nice lg. quilt over it,so it will not get dirty. IKLI just saw,that someone else said,no, but I see a zipper going around the whole futon??!!?

The metal does get pretty warm. I bought a cushion to sit on and it works great.

It's a little hot... but it works fine. I wear XL and this one fits too big. Hope this helps.

No, you wont feel air coming out of this unit! I was thinking the same way when I purchased mine. I just provides a constant warmness through out the safe!!

Not at all. If the unit getting hot, place a cooler box under, like a lap top.

Yes, but I suggest you have a Matt under it. it gets Hot and ther's no way to control the the temperature.

Not at all, it's heat is released from the bottom if I remember correctly. It is like wearing a regular backpack, so it's right up against you when you put it on, but I've used it for over an hour at a time and never felt like it was creating heat.

The unit feels hot by the side vent. Sitting behind it on the couch should not be uncomfortable. Let me add that once the unit is turned off it cools very quickly.

The housing does get warm, but not uncomfortably so. To pick up or move it is a non issue. I think that you could burn yourself with it but you would have to lay on it or you on it, to burn yourself (you would have to be really stupid)...but it would not be like a branding iron but more like a bit overly hot heating pad.

I don't think so, the zipper does not touch your skin, there is a nice amount of material/flap behind the zipper.

No it will not be uncomfortable. Just unzip the sides. If you don't plan to use it in temps below 50 degrees why don't you buy one that is not rated as low as this one.

Ours sits in the shade all day so heat is not a problem. I would assume that it would get hot in the sun if exposed for any length of time, as would all metal. We also put a seat and back cushion on it, so we may not be the best resource to answer the question. It is a nice unit and seems solid. We're happy.

Hi. I wouldn't know. I returned this jacket the same day I got it. It was to stiff for me and the zipper was damaged.
