Does the grill of this unit get hot enough to burn if you touch it for a second or two? Thanks

No. This unit is ok for a small room. I installed it in an apartment unit that is a 1 bedroom. I put a second unit in the living area

Definitely not! Contact the seller immediately and don't use this grill again. Mine hasn't done that.

Hi there. My experience with this unit is that it can get pretty hot. 600 degrees. The problem is that if you cook at that temp a lot the unit won't be all that durable. I think for the price this is a great grill but it will self destruct above 500 degrees.

it gets hot. if you touch it by hand, you probably can't touch for longer than a second

It does get quite hot. We tend to use at around 500 degrees to sear and quick cook. It will cook on lower if you only use one of the two burners, but more around 275-300.

I don't think it gets hot. We haven't had any problems with unit getting extremely hot.

I have had mine for a little over eight months, and I haven't had any problems other than it flaming up fairly consistently. I just have to move my food every couple/few minutes. It does still come with the inserts, and they work well as long as you plan the order of grilling ahead of time; trying to find a place for hot inserts can be challenging while your other food is still grilling.

Yes!!!!! I don't turn on all the burners. It does burn hot, just takes some time figuring it out.

Yes it get warm I guess really had to let it stay on for a while to test it as I never had to touch it until you asked. It wont burn you however. Hope this helps

the handle will get too hot to touch if you are using the grill on high for an extended period... but for everyday grilling we have not had that experience. Even roasting a chicken (where you are not using all the burners on high) has not been a problem.

It only takes a few minutes to cool off. It's a great grill and has a lot of power for being electric.

I have the grill .. Used it 1 time ... Took forever to even cook a hot dog .. It doesn't get hot enough to sear much of anything....

Yes, the helper handle on the front lip (the short handle) gets too hot to touch very quickly. The long handle (opposite side) doesn't heat up as quickly. Still, when I've got mine on the burner (four times a week), I do NOT touch any handles--top, helper or main--without a buffer (mitt or towel). I learned the hard way.

I would assume that it would get hot enough but may not have even heat distribution with the burners being spaced apart from each other. The gas grill works well since it seems to have even heat across the grill grates

No the grill gets too hot. This had a short life for the oven, you should buy a different thermometer.

I don't find this gets excessively hot to the touch at all. Yes, it does get toasty, but I can touch the heater and not feel burnt. Again, with small children go ahead and put it up on something so they can't get close to it if you are worried. My pets also have no problem with this, they lay in front, although they aren't laying right up against it.
