Looking to purchase a dining set for our RV. I know these are marketed for camping, but any idea if these are microwavable? Thanks!

No. These are made of polycarbonate plastic which is not considered microwave safe.

no they are lightweight plastic and cannot handle microwave cooking... i have already thrown 2 of them away... would not buy again ... you are warned

Yes, they are microwaveable. As far as weight goes, they are not exceptionally heavy but the large bowl is substantial. I am very pleased with these bowls. There is a size for everything. I love them.

I have not put these in a microwave. I see one reviewer has and still likes the bowls. I would contact OXO to make sure since we don't know the exact conditions that these bowls were microwaved under (light power, less than 5 minutes etc.)

So I bought these for my daughter as a gift, so I asked her and she told me that they don't get "very" hot... so my assumption is, they are microwave friendly. I can certainly tell you that she Loves Them... since she's in college... she's very microwave friendly! :o)

The containers, I received are microwable, however keep in mind- 1-2min.give it few seconds 1-2min. If you try to put 4-5 min on them at one time, they will weaken. I can resuse them 2-3 times- if you don't over microwave them at 1 time..

I would have to say they are not microvable. they do keep the hot dog very warm while in the wrapper. Hope this helps

I've had a few for a loooong time. I think they've all been microwaved at some point and they are all fine but one. On one the coating bubbled up after microwaving, so I wouldn't risk it.

I've never seen other brands or products like this, that aren't actually an electrified hot plate. Has anyone seen others? My alternative was running them under hot water, which is a lot more work & waste (water, gas, time, & have to dry them). These I just pop in the microwave for 25-30 seconds depending on the size of the plate. I'm reluctant to try things like microwaving them in a damp towel.

It says do not microwave on the bottom of the plate, but they are dishwasher safe. I haven't tried microwaving as I prefer not to cook on plastic.

Yes, they are microwaveable. I have not had them ever get hot, except where the food itself heats the plate.

I have been using this set for dining with very little microwaving in any of the dishes. The pieces are stamped "microwave and dishwasher safe." They seem fine with the little microwaving to warm something that I've done.

Margaret, did not know you could microwave them. I have always washed them by hand. Nice to know.

No, these bowls are not microwavable. You also cannot put them in the oven. They are dishwasher safe. I use them strictly as mixing bowls, and they perform wonderfully. They're very deep so that there's no splashing or bursting of flour out of the bowls. Love 'em.

I have not tried to microwave them to date. You could prob do it for a few seconds as I often will microwave my butter container to melt it & that is plastic as well. Good luck!

I have used the bowls in the microwave and they do get hot. I hold the bowl with a dish cloth while I'm eating from it. There has been no damage to them. They are microwave safe. I love those dishes.
