No, it has a safety sensor which will turn the unit off if tilted.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Beware the automatic shut-off switch when many electrical appliances, especially heaters, are turned sideways or fall over. This might be a required design imposed by Underwriters' Laboratories (UL) or the Federal Government who prescribes safety features in products such as child tamper-proof medicine bottle caps, automobile seat bags and safety belts and infant/toddler seats.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I don't think it can be layer on it side because it has a tip over shut off.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I don't hink it can be any way except upright.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, you can't. It can only stand up straight, and the problem is that with most heaters, the safety clearance area around it should be about 3 feet, so I do not believe this would work under a desk.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Unfortunately, no I don't think that would be a good idea.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It will be difficult to lay on side. However, height is just enough for you to get the heat on your legs when you are working - even when it is in standing position.
