does it get hot on the sides since it has a 3 sided view of the flames

The sides do not get as hot as the front. If placed within the measurements suggested you should be fine. The open sides provides for some beautiful light. Be aware that the flame is not adjustable. The remote controls the temp, once the temp has been reached that you set the room mode temp to then the flame turns off. We really like the unit for our three season room! Hope this helps.

It does seem to distribute the heat pretty well. The heating element is a sideways U, so in the middle gets heat from 3 sides and the material conducts well. The only spot that may be a little less hot would be where the two sides meet, because of the grease drain, but not enough to unevenly cook something.

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

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.

Mine is in a 3 sided cabinet with an open back. Doesn't seem to get too hot. Mine does have space on both sides, front and top of unit . Our open back allows for plenty of air circulation.

No...the flame would be upside down. Also, the quality is terrible. I would find something else.

There are multiple settings and u can turn the flames on without the heat. I like it flames look pretty real.

Yes, it does get hot, but there is a fan. Mine has never overheated, but I haven't really put it to the test either.

I think so. I used mine over the holiday weekend and it was the right side that would not light immediately. However when I shield it more from the wind by moving the pan and crank the igniter it would always light. Don't be shy with the igniter.

It gets warm to hot just in front of stove, particularly when the fan is off. Above and behind it not so much.

I used it on Level 3 and the sides were warm but not too hot to touch. That being said, I wouldn't let kids around it or put it close to anything.

The flame is enclosed and does not seem to be much effected by the wind on mine.. Hope this helps

On mine it goes to slightly warm. You learn from experimenting. I am very happy with this burner and use it every day.

Both. The main burners, of which there are 4, run front to back. They are connected together fore and aft by burners that run side to side. It is the hottest temperature-wise grill I have ever owned (about 12 grills).

It does get hot. You won't be able to have anything on top of it and need to have some space behind it. But the oven is great and I definitely recommend it!
