Does it get hot on the outside when cooking?

Mine stays relatively cool compared to my last toaster oven. I wouldn't purposely grab hold of it but if you brush it you won't get burned.

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!

I have no issue with outside getting hot when cooking. This is the best toaster oven I have owned -- would highly recommend.

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

Yes, Virginia the external aluminum does get hot during cooking. You should always use the handles.

If you are wondering if it is a separate entity, no. This stove is basically like a miniature version of one that you would have at home. I do not recall the outside of the oven getting super hot. Of course it will be a little warm to the touch. I highly recommend this for camping. I was super pleased with it, as well as everyone in our camping group.

No it does not get hot, even after minutes have passed, as in frying bacon. In my case, the pan I use is smaller diameter than the screen so the ring does not touch the pan but sits outside it, the screen sits flush on the pan's edge. No heat is transmitted.

I do not, I am very careful not to put any thing hot on it, if I do I have a pot holder on the bottom. I do use the extra space while getting everything ready for cooking.

Yes it does. I don't usually notice because I tend to cook low and long. But I did some high temperature cooking the other day and it was very hot. But I keep a kitchen towel on the stove so I just used that I don't have a problem.

Yes the stainless part is hot on the outside. But you can always hold the plastic handle.

Yes, the handle does get hot....I got one of the potholder things that are made especially to slide onto pot handles. Love, love, love the pan!

The outside of the oven does get warm, but not terribly hot. The door gets hot, but the handle stays cool.

Yes. It gets very hot. Definitely a con on this. I have to hold the handle with a small towel.

The only time that my Char Griller gets warm is when it has been sitting in the sun on a hot day. I have cooked at 500F many times, and there is barely any warmth on the outside.

It gets pretty warm on the outside. But, if you need to move it, use the handles - that's what they're for and they don't get hot.

Yes, it gets pretty warm. You will need a pot holder to lift the lid after the food has cooked so long. I also wish this crockpot had a warming or warm selection rather than just high or low. Sometimes even low is too hot after the food is cooked but once it's turned off, the food doesn't stay warm for long.

No not too hot to touch on outside---You use the handle. It's a great product.

Mine was certainly hot enough. It did take a little bit longer than a stove and skillet but not long

Yes. It gets very hot on the outside, so be careful. Open and close the lid by holding only the black plastic handle.
