How hot to the touch does this heater get?

You would have to leave it there a while for it to burn. If you just touch it, you'll be ok.

The heater surfaces do not get so hot as to cause instantaneous burns if touched. But they are hot enough I would be cautious about crawling infants or toddlers being around them.

it gets warm, but not hot. We have it in our Kids bedroom and have never had a safety concern

up to 90 degrees - - excellent .esp if your main heater is not made to adjust to your desired room heat temp - My daughter and her husband have several of these heaters too

Very little heat from sides and back. Heater is modest at best but throws a bit of heat out the front so it feels warm when you get close. It's a great unit overall.

Yes. The unit is not a traditional heating element heater. You can touch the unit and you will not get burned.

Heats up quite high. I use mine at 140 for 45 mins at a time. And it heats up in about 10 mins to that temp.

I had mine on high for about 5 minutes heating an outside bathroom today...when I walked by, my hand brushed against the front part that the (very hot) heat actually blows out of & it was hot enough that I pulled away ~very~ quickly, but it didn't burn me. When I touched it 30 seconds later to see if it was still hot, it was totally cooled off. It really is the best heater I have owned, but I will be careful not to touch the front part again right after turning it off!

I just got mine and either mine has a defect, or the information on here is incorrect. I use it to take the edge off of the cold house in the morning. I have it sitting on laminate wood flooring. After about 1 hour on high the floor in front of the heater is very hot to the touch. About as hot as you want to touch with your bare hand. If this was sitting on a canvas, nylon or poly tarp floor of a tent, I would be concerned. It does not get hot directly under the unit, but a foot or two in front of it the floor gets very hot.

It gets pretty warm, but it won't burn you immediately. I can touch it but it's not comfortable. I've got it mounted on a wall and it doesn't burn the wall behind it.

That's about the size of my bedroom but with a higher ceiling. I turn on and close the door and it warms up quite nicely. I don't like it super hot , just to take the chill off. I don't know how it compares with other heaters as this is the first one I have used. I liked the slim style, lightweight and the remote is great during the night. Hope that helps!

No, it does not get hot. I have never had it overheat or even get warm to the touch.

I don't know, I did read it some where. I have mine on a thermo cube turns on at 22 and off 32. it gets warm at that temp to the touch

It gets hotter than I thought but it won't burn you in the short time you would be able to keep your hand on it. If for some reason you could not pull away from it I could see where you could get a nasty burn from it. I bought it to replace an oil filled space heater in my son's room and it is much better than that heater. I was worried he would get out of bed and touch it and get burnt. He has touched this one and knew it was hot and now he leaves it alone. He didn't get burnt when he touched it but did pull his hand away and say hot.

I don't think it gets hot. We haven't had any problems with unit getting extremely hot.

I should say if you touch it briefly you won't burn yourself but it will make it uncomfortable enough that you want to take your hand away. It works like forced air, a great heater and I've had several different models, this being the best one.

It is not hot to touch. It does not maintain room temp. You can set it to run for 2 hours or 4 hours basically. It allows the temp option, but doesn't really work. It reaches the time limit prior to reaching temperature. It does produce and put out decent heat though. Saved my gas bill last winter.
