These stoves are typically used by Asians for indoor cooking at the dinning room table for say hot pot, shabu shabu, sukiyaki etc.

I don't know if it's approved, but I've used it indoors and lived to tell about it. It's incredibly handy if you need an extra burner or are doing tabletop crepes or something like that.

Q - "Is this stove approved for indoor use?"A - The stove is safe for indoor use as long as you follow the manufactures operating instructing. Like any other appliance with an open flame (a Gas Cooking Range)or (Fire Place) one must be careful with combustion air, which means using up all the oxygen leaving carbon dioxide - always keep a fresh air source close buy (open a window slightly) and remember follow the manufactures operating instructing, and you will be fine, I do.

I don't know but I see it this way ; any product like this should work in both environment no matter how they market it. The principal / mechanism is the same. I use this mostly indoor yet not only this one but I always make sure ventilation is good while using it. To me it is a common sense any gas producing stuff you use, you need some air circulation / ventilation always. Hope this answer helps.

It is not approved for indoor use, I don't think any are. I have never had any issues using it indoors, and it works quite well as well. I believe I remember the same statement "not approved for indoor use" on the ones I used for table side service when I was in fine dining. (great for flaming deserts) I think it would likely need a complicated oxygen sensor with cut off to be approved for indoor use, seems like that would be more effort than it was worth as this should never be used unattended.

Yes, this stove is safe to use indoors. It is no different than a gas stove in your kitchen.

The user instructions say no. It requires adequate ventilation to prevent carbon monoxide buildup. However, my feeling is that it's required by the company's lawyers and if properly functioning it will not be a serious carbon monoxide threat. I have seen similar stoves used in restaurants in open areas. I used a similar model in my house during the multi-day power outage from hurricane Sandy. I have carbon monixide detectors and they were not set off. I wouldn't use it in a confined space, like a tent.

I have used this stove indoors when I have had need of an extra burner, but I have not used it during a power outage.

Yes the iwatani portable gas stove is safe to use inside. The unit is light but very stable. Using the recommended gas the unit burns very clean.

I have been using mine this week with no issues, other than a slight smell. It burns clean as it is alcohol based. In a small, airtight room you may burn the oxygen but in a kitchen, open to the house, that will not happen. I know that a propane stove will put out CO2 and should not be used indoors.

No, it shouldn't be used indoors. All the smoke and gases escape around the pot into the room.

I have used them indoors with a camp stove, not sure if it is recommended by the manufacturer.

Yes, our's is indoors, but there's no reason it couldn't be used outside. It's a very good quality stainless steel.

It says not to use it indoors, but we've been using it indoors with no issues. We leave it on the stove and turn the above fan on. Obviously I wouldn't leave it unattended. We've used it many times for stir fry dishes.

No, it's a open flame gas heather and as such is not intended for indoor use.

Yes, it can be used indoor but only in an area where you have active ventilation, otherwise your smoke alarm may go off for sure.

There is no exhaust to speak of so it is safe to use indoors. BTU size varies depending on what type of room you use it in. If memory serves, 10,000 BTU or less is rated for bedroom use (where we use ours). I did install a "Kidde KN-COPP-B-LPM Battery-Operated Carbon Monoxide Alarm with Digital Display" as a precautionary measure, however. It has never registered any measurable CO2.

I wouldn't think you'd want to use any BBQ indoors because of the smoke that's created. Apart from that, there are flame-ups as drippings hit the element. I wouldn't use it indoors.

It is designed for indoor use. Producet description does not discuss using it outside either on the amazon written description or the packages written description.

Yes. I have used mine indoors. It is similar to a large George Foreman grill. I would have it near an exhaust fan just like other stove-top cooking.
