Does the outside of the oven get hot when baking?

Yes it does. To be honest, seems like they all do. Nevertheless, the unit is great.

Yes, it does! That's my main complaint... The door is especially hot and will burn your hand if you aren't real careful. Also, it doesn't cook evenly, and pizza has to be turned around halfway through cooking. My very old Oster oven doesn't have those problems.

We have a 1 year old Amana oven that does get very hot on the outside. Getting rid of an oven because it gets hotter than you'd like sounds like a luxury not many can afford. To answer your question, yes these latches hold up on the outside of a hot oven. I cook almost every day with the oven set on anything from 250 to 550. The adhesive on both ends has shown no sign of coming loose after 2 months of daily oven use.

I've only had it a couple days and so far only used it for toasting. Outside gets warm but not hot but I assume it will get hotter when using for longer cooking foods.

I have baked cakes and cupcakes in this oven. The only thing I noticed is that when baking with the convection oven on, it takes less time for the baking to be done. So I check sooner than the directions suggest.

No, It doesn't get that hot, at least not to burn on the front if you touch it. It will get warm. The outside doesn't get hot.

Yes it does, although when using the upper rack the results are disappointing. I am on my second oven since purchasing the initial oven in February. There is a significant problem with even temperature, especially when using the convection mode. I now do all of my food on the lower rack and on regular bake. Haven't used this oven for either toasting or broiling, it's basically used as my second oven. Can't hold a candle to my old DeLonghi!

Yes. I set the oven to 375. The top reached about 180 deg. The left side was about 20-30 deg less than the top. The right side (where the controls are) just got warm. Hope this info helps.

Not really, the metal pan gets hot so you can burn yourself just like you would with a regular oven. its a waste of time we used it once then through it out buy some kids bake ware and use your oven since you have to help them and watch them anyway.

To be honest, I have never been aware of the outside temperature. If yours is cool and it seems to be fucntioning properly, I would not be concerned. Perhaps it's well enough insulated that you don't feel the heat on the outside. However, if you don't feel it is cooking in the time suggested, you might consider returning it. Sorry I couldn't be more specific.

I haven't noticed that the handle gets hot at all, but the exterior does get pretty hot. The manufacturer suggests that you make sure that the sides, back and top are at least 4 inches away from any objects including walls and cabinets. I would not suggest letting children use the oven unsupervised.

not particularly hot at all. i keep a couple of utensils on the top of the oven and heat has never been an issue

No, it does not get hot to the touch. I have touched it while it was baking and did not experience any excessive heat.

Depends on what you are baking or cooking. My oven goes as high as 500 degrees.

No absolutely not! The outside cover would not stand up the the heat from an oven.

Sorry - I've never used mine in the oven.....only on the grill - and I'm sure our grill gets hotter than 350°!

I do not know. We have used it in our house for over a year. When using it as a reg oven it will get hot on the outside.

Yes, The oven itself does get hot but the temperature buttons and the handle does not get as hot.
