do the legs and the metal around the top get really hot?

I haven't had any HUGE fires out of it yet, but I wouldn't say hot...very warm, but not scorch-your-hand hot. However, there isn't much to the entire pit, so I can imagine the top gets pretty toasty during an extended fire session

Not really. The fire pit is a removable sheet metal tray so you can empty the ashes. Since it just drops into the frame, it does not conduct heat to the frame very much.

The legs definitely do not get hot. As far as the top where the ceramic tile is, it doesn't get hot either.

Yes, the Top will be Hot & for a long while. I would not recommend It.Unless U can somehow get an exhaust Fan in behind Blow exhaust out or up.

Ours sits in the shade all day so heat is not a problem. I would assume that it would get hot in the sun if exposed for any length of time, as would all metal. We also put a seat and back cushion on it, so we may not be the best resource to answer the question. It is a nice unit and seems solid. We're happy.

No the legs don't but the grill gets really hot! I have an early model that really heats up. The new ones may not be as hot but still will still be hot to the touch. I plan to use mine on a boat but only cook on an Island. Always stay safe! It is a great great grill but I don't think I would cook with it on my boat. I have a Boat grill for that

On mine the part that surrounds the stoneware crock (with the circles on it) is metal and it does get hot. The stoneware gets hot too obviously. The handles and control knob are plastic but I've had mine on for hours at a time and those have never gotten hot.

Mine gets really hot, that has never been a problem. It actually gets hotter that I had anticipated.

The metal does get pretty warm. I bought a cushion to sit on and it works great.

It has rubber or plastic type legs, I'm sure they would melt if placed on a hot glass cook top. We leave ours on our gas stove top while the oven is on and just the heat from the oven vent has melted the legs.

not at all. It is metal and will get hot but I love this shaker so much. It is easy to pack and travel too.

I haven't noticed it getting hot but I have cushions on the seat. It doesn't seem like it would get too hot but my patio doesn't have direct sun. The chairs seemed to be higher than typical bar height and were a little tricky getting in them. It looks great sitting on my patio hahaha

The legs may get warm but not hot. I have even placed cardboard underneath to keep drips from getting on the picnic table top and have never had any heat problems. Hope this helps!!

No, not at all. The only part that gets hot is where the heated air blows out of it.

I haven't had any issue with heat with mine. But I wouldn't use a real high heat with even heat protected

I don't recommend putting the grid on top of the floor. It is designed to radiate through cement and so probably gets fairly hot.

It is a heater, yes, it get's hot. It won't burn someone because of the grill front but little fingers might get burned from sticking in between the spaces in the grill. It can be put up high though instead of on the floor.
