Can you set anything on top of the heater or does it get too hot?

Doesn't seem to get too hot for me, However I would not recommend placing anything on it.

Heat comes out from the bottom so the top remains cool - as my daughter discovered to her disappointment when she tried to warm her school clothes!!

The heat comes out from the bottom front of the heater. The top remains cool and I run mine 10+ hour's a day in a sunroom. Best purchase I ever made ! I love it.

It doesn't get hot at all. I have plants and bare candles on it, it's cool metal and doesn't heat up at all, no matter how long the heater is on for.

My XL heater cabinet does not get hot, nothing gets hot that i know of on the furnace, the heat warms the air and furniture ....got one for my granddaughter's room, she's 4, I have found to be very safe! However, I would not put my finger on the heater front port, don't know if it is hot or not....re emergency, i would turn it off with the remote

They do not recommend putting much other than the cloth cover over it.... Seems more on top less heat gets through. I suppose that would be okay but I would not wait to attest to that...I would not bury it but I cannot see a little hurting anything. See if you can contact the company. Awesome heater ...

Mine too. There is an electrical connection behind the control panel that overheats and starts to burn the wire insulation when the heater is on high. It is connected to the pendulum switch that would power-off the unit if it tipped over. I contacted Kaz (the actual mfgr) but they weren't interested in fixing or replacing the heater.

I haven't tried that, so I really can't say. It heats up quickly & I usually just put it on high to heat things up.

The Unit remains cool to the touch all over its exterior, front, back and top. The only warm area is the front vent where the heat come directly out of. My wife, who is very attentive to space heaters has been most happy with the performance dynamics and meeting the definition of heating and its cabinets temperature variables for cool to touch. So you should be able to place anything on top of it you wish, my wife has the Christmas Cactus and its ceramic vase on it and it has never been warm to the touch at all. I believe you'll be very happy with the units and its performance. Vpc_Dlc

Definitely not! This heater belts out the heat, great heater, but also the smell of kerosene is heavy and would taint your food. Also, the wire protector is not designed for anything to be set on top of it.

Only if you put your hand directly on the door glass. Otherwise everythig else doesn't seem to overheat.I will not put anything on top of mine, just in case.

There are 2 temps, high or low. I only use the heaters in the bathroom as needed and don't keep them on longer than an hour. They have never overheated, but I wouldn't trust any electric heater left alone for a long time. Excellent heater

You can if it's a very heavy duty extension cord. The typical extension cords can handle the load of the heater and tend to over heat which could lead to a fire.

I have not had a problem with that at all. do you think it could using too high of heat?

the directions say not to lay anything over the heater, other than the covering with the heating pad

Yes you can. It is a great product. You can kind of regulate how hot you want it by how much time you set the warmer.

I use mine on top of fleece. It doesnt seem to distribute heat evenly.I tried under the fleece, it needs to be on top of fleece :)

Yes if you set it that way. I keep mine set kinda half way that way I keep a comfortable heat level. I've had for about a month and no problems. Now when you first turn in it will give a funny smeel but soon burn off. And it gives out much mire heat than stated. I bought 2 and then my furnace went out my hiuse is maybe 1000 square ft and these kept it nice til I git my furnace fixed. Yes it's a great deal,great buy.

No, I keep the top of mine out of the water so I can adjust the setting. I think it has to be in the water up to around the base of the top. It is a pretty good heater for my 5.5 gallon tank. Keeps a constant temperature.

I never experience a situation of over heating, but I need to let you know that this equipment is in our country house, and not used in the day by day. Hope it helps.
