How many prongs does the cord have? This is for my office and we can only use 3 prong heaters.

I'm was an electrician and you can safely plug a 2 prong cord into a 3 prong outlet. It will operate just fine. Hope this helps you.

Hi. This heater has the standard 2-prong polarized plug. It doesn't have the 3rd grounding plug. So from what you are saying, this wouldn't be the right fit for you; although it's an excellent heater. Hope this helps! :) Have a wonderful day!

It's a regular household non grounded 2 prong plug.. I would think you could get a 3 prong grounded adapter for about a dollar at any hardware store(Homedepot Lowes..

two-prong. I just went downstairs to have a look, so my answer's not a guess, it's definite. BTW, my unit is about 8 months old, used once or twice every day, and it still works perfectly. Not a bad machine for the price.

I was in Florence and every outlet in my room was 3 holes. I was told 2 prong plugs might not be spaced far enough apart to reach the outer 2 holes. Supposedly 2 holes are the old style and 3 are new. Modern hotels or recently renovated ones will have 3, but older homes may have 2. I followed online advice and bought 3 which was what I needed

It is three prongs. It works so well and is so small, I bought an additional one for travel.

Mine has three. Wouldn't make any sense for it to take grounded plugs and then straight up not ground them!

Good question..I have trashed it...it had a three prong outlet plug, but the wire itself wasn't as heavy as the Air King I currently choose...if I have to guess where it failed it was in the LCD thermostat panel , but having said that it never really had the high heat that you find in most heaters so maybe the cord couldn't provide enough juice...it was a disappointment for us.

Sorry for the delayed response, I just noticed the email. Yes, the power cord is 3 prong. Good luck, Teresa

It has a regular 3-prong plug. We plugged it right into a regular wall outlet. Runs very well. Very efficient. Highly recommend this item

3, bought this 2 weeks ago thinking it was an adabter. It's not, 3 prongs go into the wall and give you more outlets

I live in the U.S. and it is only 2 prongs. All I know is that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the item. I think you may have to ask Simplicity this question.

Yes, you will need a standard American '3' prong receptacle (female end), extension cord. Cord on heater is less than a foot long.

It is a 3-prong. It is a grounded outlet, so it has to have 3-prong. It is a great outlet.

No, I own three by two different comanies and they all have two prongs. You can buy a three prong adapter if you want to but most electrical outlets are grounded anyway.

it is a black cord but it is just a long strip plug. Normal 3 prong plug but many plugs on a stip. We strapped it to grid wall and put plug in warmers on it for an event but has many purposes.
