So this doesn't come with the hot/cold on/off handle part?

There is an internal valve that isn't included U can purchased on line via HomeDepot $50-$60. This is because we eliminated the bath faucet.

Not on the handle but there is a valve that you turn on to use and off when finished..The pressure is easily regulated by that valve...

The handle is also made of cast iron. I have not had it get too hot to touch, if that is what you are wondering.

I don't know why that picture shows a handle- the one I purchased was the two-button model. I believe that is what you'll get.

No, it doesn't, which is good. The handle is the part of the unit that takes the most pressure in operation and therefore needs to be very securely attached. It may be possible to disassemble it from the body, but it'd be an effort I don't think would be worth doing either way.

It does have an on/off button on the handle. When you turn it on you can see it light up inside which is a really cool feature.

Yes it does. The on/off lever is under the handle and should auto shut off. If not you've got a defective model

No, the handle is 'permanently attached', for the most part. This is really 'heavy duty', unlike the cheap copies that you may have seen before. I consider the Cold Steel Chaos Tanto 'Bombproof'. You won't be disappointed.

There is a switch on the handle that is hidden pretty well. It has 3 positions: on, off and box mode. You are still in box mode.

No Robert; it does not. It has a hard gray plastic handle. I wonder at the discrepancy between the three of us responders, and can only think "different models, different dates of purchase." Shari

Even though it isn't apparent from the promotional photo, yes, it does have a handle. But bcause the unit doesn't get hot, as compared to the propane units, a handle isn't that necessary except for convenience.

The N version comes with a different handle. The new handle is supposed to stay cooler.

None. The handle only moves forward straight up is cold, straight forward is hot. It doesn't rotate to the back.

Hi. The only handle on it is the one you see in the photo. Overall, it's a nice item.

Yes all parts hot except for the handle and base. I'm loving it and use it several times a day.

I was unsure about that also so I ordered without the handle and it came without the handle. Order the handle also. Is a great tool.

I'm not sure what you mean by handle being push back. For us, to turn on, handle is pulled forward max 2 in. To engage hot/cold, it's a matter of turn to right or left.
