Wow dude are you keeping it in a cupboard with a towel wrapped around it or something? You must be doing it wrong to have it break 3 times. My original fat PS3 didn't have a problem in the 2 1/2 years I had it, and my slim hasn't had an issue since I got it in October.

on a coffee table with nothing for 2 feet in 3 directions off it only thing close to it is a container where games and controlers are kept and that's on the side that has no vents (the side you can stand it on)

Wow I have no idea why you've been so unfortunate then! I hate to say it but you must just be unlucky.
