Does the handle get hot?

It's at our camp and I haven't used it yet but I'm pretty sure it will. Boiled coffee is really good in the woods on a cold frosty morning sitting by the fire.

If you look closely at the photo, the handle is metal as well as the pot itself. Yes, it will get hot, but if you use a hand towel or potholder, it is just fine. I used this for my morning tea, and for heating water to wash dishes with. It is a great pot. Do not run in your dishwasher. Only hand wash, just as you would your other camping enamelware.

Yes. On the fire pit and on my gas stove. I've never owned one that doesn't.

No, the handle does not get hot for me. I love this because it fits in different mugs I use and the fine mesh keeps the leaves inside the infuser. Best infuser I have used.

The handle gets hot; however, I enjoy the kettle so much that using a hot pad is not a problem.

I have used it for some time now and have never had the handle get to hot to pick up.

No! It conducts heat perfectly. I bought it, love how it looks, filled it with coffee, and touching the handle is as hot as sticking your hand in the cup. Hot. It is great for cold drinks but cannot be used for hot liquids. One with a wooden handle would be nice for hot liquids.

No it does not. It is a single layer of glass and it gets very hot but the handle does not seem to get hot. I hope this helps.

The handle does not get very hot, however the lever thats attached to the lid gets very hot and has to be handled with care to avoid getting burned.

Yes, the handle gets hot. I don't know why it doesn't actually get as hot as I expected it would, but it does get hot enough to burn you if used over an extended period of time. Crepes are not prepared at a very high temperature, so I haven't counted it as a negative, but I do have little slip-on pot holder sleeves that fit over the handles of many of my pans - and keep them near when using this one. I really love this pan. Hope this helps!

I haven't had any problems with the pot handles getting hot. The lid handles are cool touch on the underside of the handle however the tops are not so they can heat up. If you lift the lids from under the handles its fine.

No, I haven't noticed any heat coming from the handles. Hope that helps. So far this has been a great product!

No. If you keep the handle in the upright direction it gets warm but not too hot. If you have the handle bent to the side while boiling it does get hotter, but can still be touched

Handle nor handle on lid get hot. Lid may get warm but generally not overly so.In my opinion, Cuisinart really thought this product through.

Yes. The handle does get hot, and you will need a glove or towel. The beauty of these authentic pans is that they get hot very fast...and hence are great for bringing liquids to a boil. The surface discourages sticking, too!

No, the handle in the pots and pans will not get hot, they are well designed. However the handle in the lid will get hot of course.

I have never had a problem with the handle becoming too hot while simmering for any amount of time on the stovetop.

Yes, the handle gets hot - however, it comes with a heat resistant potholder that you slide over the handle after it boils. This works very well and alleviates the problem. FYI - I am sending mine back to Chantal itself as the spout broke.

Handle does not get hot. I have used 5 times and very happy with product. Heats up quickly, cleans easily and variable time works.
