can you put sheets over it and will it catch on fire

The pad we bought couldn't set fire to anything. We could barely feel any heat at all. I missed the deadline for Amazon returns, so I just threw it away. Comments from others indicates manufacturer doesn't take warranty seriously. My opinion is that this product is junk.

I put sheets over it and it is great. According to the instructions that is fine. As to fire, any heating product for a bed can you have to inspect it befor each first annual use.

I have a sheet cover and egg crate pad and have no issue with it catching on fire.

I have it on my deck, so far nothing major has happened, however, the cover most definitely lets out pieces of burning wood when the fire pops and cracks. I wouldn't put a carpet under it. Also for those wondering, we moved it to our yard one night and it definitely burned and killed the grass underneath, so it gets extremely hot. I love this little fire pit though, and I'm pleased with the purchase.

it's possible but remember the air bubble insulation and Mylar cover is plastic so high temp could damage the material if not present a fire hazard

Probably not a great idea to do that. If it is your only option then put an access cover in the sheet rock so you can put your hand on it every so often. They will run hot eventually when they start reaching their end.

All surfaces will get hot; need ventilation and lots of small sticks constantly fed to keep fire going; suggest you dress warm and rely on wool or down rather than use this as a heater

That has not been an issue so far, and we live in the really hot desert...I do have a zip on cover over mine, followed by an old fashioned mattress cover, then the sheet. That may have been adequate to prevent over heating.

In order to answer that one would have to ask what kind of fire/flame would this mattress be exposed to? Most foam mattresses melt under heat then go to another state depending on the degree of heat. Of all the flammable objects that are in and around your room one would have to ask what fire scenario are you thinking about? Let me know so that one can give you a better answer or check with the manufacturer!

I would put something like a baker's sheet under it and it may still scorch the wood. I have mine on a little steel mesh table.

I wouldn't turn on any heaters under the bed, things can get real hot and may start a fire.

It would work well under a sheet, but you may want to put it on top. If there is a accident you won't have to change the bed

You could probably still do it, mine does not get that hot undernesth even with a large fire. Would have to watch out for sparks though. Sparks and hot cinders can still pop out through screening. Another recommendation is to get a good cover if you dont already have one, i have mine covered with heavy canvas that was cheaper than buying brand name. If you have any other questions, let me know. Very happy with my Landmann!

I don't think it gets hot enough to cause something to catch fire. I bought it for my daughter to use in her apartment and she put books and pillows in it. It seemed to work well and gave her some piece of mind.

Not recommended. Wet towels would eventually dry out and then the heat given off by the towel can could cause the towels to catch fire.

Direct contact with fire is not advisable. The fingers are still vulnerable and the fabric may catch on fire. This is meant to keep your arms from being scorched from high heat.

No they will catch on fire. They are only resistant to heat. I use them for welding and leaning on the warm metal

It's not recommended that it be put somewhere that won't allow heat to escape. It does produce a small amount of heat. I don't think it would start a fire, but it's life would probably be shortened. I personally wouldn't do it.

Yes, as long as you take the usual precautions as debris and sparks can make their way through the protective screen. But the unit is compact, light, and really lovely. Not unwieldy like some of the larger firepit. We love it.
