Can you microwave chinet plates?

I no longer own them, but as I recall they are microwave-safe. I used them to reheat food and occasionally even as a cover for other plates I would microwave.

You cannot microwave chinet cut crystal plates although you can with other varieties like chinet white. I contacted the manufacturer since the package did not mention it. They told me that the cut crystal plates are not microwavable. Hope this helps.

I have never done so, but they are fairly sturdy, so I don't see a problem with it.

I really don't know--didn't try it. It is a hard plastic so I would not think so.

I wouldn't microwave anything with much grease on it but so long as you aren't actually cooking on it, it should hold up okay.

No, it cannot be used to microwave cook. The pan is metal coated with Teflon.

Hi, Judith, I've put the pot in the microwave without a problem mainly to reheat prepared tea on defrost (works great---no loss of flavor) or to heat the water in order to heat the teapot. However, I would never use the microwave to heat the water for tea because it is impossible to gauge if the water is the correct temperature. My guess is that it would be difficult to find any pottery made nowadays which was not microwaveable, don't you think?

I guess you can if you use the plates for grilled sandwiches. You'll be able to only make 2 at a time and it might be airtime messy because of dipping into the egg-mild mixture. Otherwise it's totally possible although a pan on the stove would be easier.

No, they are not microwave safe! Plate broke in two after microwaving under 3 minutes.

Jeanne, you need to measure the diameter of the "round track" that the dish sits on. There are different diameter microwave dishes, not all will work for you.

No. You can use the metal coated cooking pans that brown microwave safe food products in. Some Chicken Pot Pies have a metalized inside cover over the pie.This is OK.

I have two microwave ovens. One does not spin, so I have no problems in that respect. I love my boat. Have given one to five relatives and friends. can you take out the plate?

Yes. However, when freezing anything in the plates, make sure to wrap it securely and put in ziploc freezer bag to prevent freezer burn. Let it thaw a bit (or compleely in the fridge) before putting it in the microwave.

I hadn't considered microwaving them. I would think that since there is some foil in their content, I would say it's not a good idea to microwave them. The bags are terrific, though. I use them every year for an annual cookout that I host. After putting the hotdogs in the buns and then in the bags, I put them into a huge covered steamer pan to keep the dogs warm and the buns soft. They are always a big hit.

Yes. I fold over the two opposite sides to fit the plate in my microwave. Sort of ends up looking like a "C" on it's side. I heat mine no more than 2 1/2 minutes. Since microwave ovens vary you have to experiment and be careful. As the other responder mentioned you can damage it if you overheat it. Start around 1 minute and work up from there.

Sorry, I have not tried to microwave it because of the rubber handle grip. But that doesn't mean you can't, I just haven't. I kept my old Pyrex for that purpose. Other than that, I love these measuring cups.

Sorry I don't know cos I try to use microwave as little as possible for the little one. But what I do is (carefully) insert hot water into the reservoir section of the plate and also rinse the plate itself with hot water before placing hot/warm (or reheated on a stove) food on it. I have used these plates for nearly 3 years and am still loving them. I recently bought new ones for my pre-schooler since I figure we should change new ones after 3 years of continuous use but the old ones are still very much fine. I also bought some for friends. Be sure to turn the lid away from the toddler during meal time. Hope this will help. Sorry I don't know cos I try to use microwave as little as possible for the little one.

Yes. I microwave with the dishes frequently. I have a Spanish mother, and my grandparents always had this tempered glass that was French called Duralex. The glasses I have are of that brand. The rest of my dishes are thie Libbey Crise, which are made in Mexico. I have the salad and dessert plates and round dinner plates. I also ended up ordering the squared ones to mix things up. I believe that you will be happy with them.

Yep. They will get hot after a while (like most plates), but I use them in the microwave all the time.

Two plates separately? I have used it for reheating 5 minutes or more, but I have a small microwave. I had absolute success with my microwave.

Yes..when reheating in the microwave, plastic wrap tends to melt a bit. I love these dishes anyway!
