On the highest setting, it does not get as hot as my old Edemco stand dryer, but it does to a good job. I really like the fact that the arm doesn't get hot to the touch.

it does not state how hot it gets. It has three heat settings high medium and low and an air only option

This dryer is plenty hot. Sometimes I click it back to medium hot because it gets hotter than I need. I have owned several of these dryers, and they are the best for my Tibetan Terriers with long coat.

It gets hot enough where if I am drying something small and my hands are near the tip (heating area-coils) it's burning hot! But it's not dangerously hot as long as you use it correctly. I love mine! And bought 12 more for my students!

Depends on how close you hold it to your head. It gets plenty hot, and puts out a lot of air

I don't know but it can get very hot! I have to keep it turned down. All I can say is you will love it! What an invention.

It gets very hot. You can set the temp. It will burn the skin if you touch it.

If you heat it for about 6 minutes, it gets pretty darn hot. It will stay warm for about half an hour.

The air immediately exiting the fan can be extremely hot. But the plastic grill itself does not get warm. Very good heater.

The heater element is behind a grill and yes the grill can get pretty hot. I just put it on high and the air alone coming out of it was pretty hot, I put the back of my hand on the grill and I could only keep it on there for a short time. I did not burn myself but a babies skin would be more sensitive. With that said I love the remote and oscillation features it also has a safety shut of feature if it gets knocked over.Hope this helps.

I don't know the temperature...it has lines, and I go on the highest, my daughter uses somewhere in the middle. All I know is that if you attempt to touch it even for a second, you will definitely get burned...it's untouchable. I love this iron, I think it works very well. I have 4 of them because I like to keep them in different houses (my parents, my daughter, and 2 in my house). I've had all of them for several years, and have never had a problem with any of them, and I use the ones in my house daily.

Mine does get hot..not really hot hot. It sounds like yours might be defective..perhaps you'll have to return it.

The element automatically heats to around 120 to 140 degrees. I have not had a problem with overheating. I was very amazed the adhesive did not melt or release. This is my second winter with it. Better start ups and quicker heat.

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

They have the guidelines in the manual. It gets hot but the heat tube is about 3' off the ground.

The base does get very hot because the heating element is basically boiling water while it's turned on. I keep my unit on a hard surface away from anything flamable just as a precaution. If the unit runs out of water the heating element will shut off on its own. I've had that happen a couple of times.

I wish I knew, because this is a common problem. But I have a suggestion. When you are done using it, donot turn it off! Turn it on the coolest setting, zero I think, and let it cool down with air blowing through it. About 45 minutes. Otherwise you will burn up the heating element!

It's never gotten hot, I do have a cushion on it, but also use it without the cushion. We gotten as high as 90 degrees, no problem. I recoment it
