Do they get really hot in the microwave? Plates and/or cups? Are they safe to handle after the microwave?

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

Safe to handle for us! We've bought two sets we've been so happy with them!

I use them in the microwave. They don't get any hotter than any other dishware. Always use caution pulling anything out of the microwave.

I don't use the cups though as they are thin for hot liquids. I prefer heavier mugs.

They are dishwasher and microwave safe. They do get very hot in the microwave for 5 minutes, but I wouldn't push it past those minutes. But, yes I love these bowls.

I have used them in the microwave with no problems. I have not put them in the oven.

I put mine in the microwave often with no problems. Also they seem to be dishwasher safe. I have not put them in the regular oven so don't know how they would hold up there. Overall these are good for storing and warming food.

Not sure, but I think they'd be okay in the dishwasher but not in the microwave. They are just plastic plates and might melt. There are so many in the package that I never needed to wash and re-use any of them. I have put similar items in the dishwasher and they came out okay (as long as not on super hot cycle). I never put one in the microwave, but other similar plastic things have warped or melted. Might be okay for 30 seconds.

I don't know if they're microwave safe, but I frequently put hot food in them to serve my children. We haven't had any issues at all. These bowls and plates are extremely durable. We use them daily for our 4 and 6 year old for over a year and half and they still look brand new.

Happy to answer your questions, Steve. I use them in the freezer all the time but don't drop them! They'll break pretty easily if frozen (especially when filled up with frozen goodies). You didn't ask but I'll offer that I'm very careful when heating something up with these in the microwave. Defrosting, yes; warming, sure; getting something pretty darn hot? I've done it successfully and nothing's melted yet, but I'm cautious.

They do not get hot in the microwave at all. They can go into a regular oven or microwave oven.

They are not designed to withstand the "heat" of a microwave. I use glassware in the microwave.

I don't know if they are microwave safe, but I don't think these cups are appropriate for hot beverages. The cups are not insulated.

I'm sorry, I haven't used them in the microwave. I tend to use glass in the microwave.They are holding up very nice thoughin the dishwasher.

I use them in the microwave all the time without any problems. The glass is really thick.

Yes they are safe in the microwave to the best of our knowledge. We soft boil our eggs in them using the microwave. We have had no problems and are pleased with our purchase.

No they are not microwave safe and they are not labeled microwave safe. In general heating plastic releases carcinogens. Microwaving with a glass pyrex measuring cup and pouring in the contents does the job well.

Hi - I just heated up some leftover pot pie for lunch :), so I can attest that they DO get hot in the microwave. I've also heated water for tea, and it also gets hot. Still so pleased with the set, and not something that would discourage me from using them.

They are definitely microwave safe. They are also oven safe as long as you are not using super high heat (e.g. broiler). I put them on a baking sheet so they're easier to retrieve from the oven once they're done.

So sorry. I responded incorrectly. It says not to put these dishes in the microwave. Having said that, I will say that I have put them in the microwave, and they were ok. Please disregard previous answer.
