I do not leave anything like this on while I am not home....it just takes a few minutes to warm the room....I love it!!

I have not left it on if I am gone, however the heat element does turn on and off automatically according to whatthe thermostat is set for. I think you would probably be ok.

I leave mine on whether I'm home or not. It has a thermostat and cuts on and off when needed.

Yes, I do feel safe leaving said product on will not at home. As a design engineer of switch mode power supplies there not much to the circuit that that can lead to a hazardous condition, but they can fail. The fixture is all metal and certified by ETL. ETL is like UL or CSA. Use it safely and you should not have a problem.

If you don't mind that the back light will not be constantly on, you can run this thermostat off of batteries.If you have the wire providing power to the thermostat, you can set the back light to stay on which is very nice at night. The batteries at this point provide backup, but then if there is no power, the fan in the house for the HVAC system wouldn't be working either. It's just there in that case to hold settings including the time and date.

I leave mine on 24/7 and haven't had any trouble. I was concerned when I bought this that it wouldn't get warm enough based on customer reviews. It gets plent warm. Not hot enough to burn you, but pretty darn warm. I love mine. Much better than the one I had before.

I've never left it unattended. I've had the thermostat stick and had the temperature up to 80 degrees and had to jar unit to get it to stop heating.

Yes, but without the fan which goes off with the flame effect the unit will overheat. The flame is intended to be on whenever the unit is on.

I honestly suggest that you should not leave it there overnight so it will not over charge the battery itself. thanks

well like any grill, if youre watching and cooking properly you wont have a smoke issue.. I use mine atleast once a week and have had nothing set off the smoke alarm!

No, there is no safety feature with automatic shut off on this one, so don't burn yourself ;-)

I often leave mine on continuously overnight and for several days. Just ensure your heat setting is not too high.

No. And for safety reasons, I wouldn't recommend doing either leaving it on constantly, or running it when not at home.

It has a auto turn off if it gets too hot. But I would not leave it on all night. It does not have a timer.

I wouldn't but I'm kind of a safety freak. (Just as I don't leave my dryer on when I go to bed.) My son feels safe with his left on at night mainly because it does have the tip over "off" safety feature. I think the company even recommends that it be unplugged when not in use.

I leave mine on 24/7 and haven't had any problems. Thermostat works way better than the cheap Home Depot brands. You certainly get what you pay for.

The instructions say that that is what the "Auto" on position is for but a little further down the page they also recommend turning the unit off when it is left unattended. I personally always put the unit in the off position, to avoid possible issue incase a real idiot bends over it wearing a neck tie and accidentally activates it, or spills liquid into it and sparks an electrical fire in a bin filled with finely shredded paper and paper dust. Odds of it happening, very unlikely, but have you ever read the Darwin Awards?

We leave it on all the time. It is hot enough that you can't hold it with your hand for more very long but not hot enough to burn. Not very scientific but hope it helps
