Can you microwave 1 or 2 cloths at a time or does it have to be the whole pack?

The front of the package says "Cloths may be warmed in a microwave" ... the back of the package says "... warm for 15 seconds and test cloth. Continue to warm until desired temperature is achieved."

Just one or two at a time and be careful they get hot very quickly (about 20 seconds does it with my microwave).

You can--but why would you want to have to clean that big pot for just one cup? I brew a full pot of tea in the morning and drink tea throughout the day--reheating each cup in the microwave.

I'm sure you could use it for the microwave, but I usually heat items in a stoneware or heat-safe glass container first and then portion into the little plastic units. That way the plastic isn't too warm for tiny hands and I can serve something like re-heated spaghetti or leftover fruit to all three of my little ones at once without multiple heats.

We have two bath towels, two hand towels and two washcloths on ours at any one time. There is space leftover, but you won't be able to heat three bath towels at once and get the entire towel warm. However, you can overlap the towels and have portions of each towel get warm.

I believe that you could pack six inside but i think four at a time is better. Do not forget to have the paper to put in the top of the container before you steam.

The cloths just get thrown in with regular washing in the washing machine. Any setting you want. They come out beautifully. The boiling water is totally unnecessary. I asked Ecloth the same question and received that answer.

No more than two minutes. It of course depends on the wattage of the microwave, but 2 minutes is a good rule. I think you will enjoy using them. I always keep one in the frig also.

There is one hand warmer per pack therefore you need to purchase two. They do last a long time.

No. I put one pack in at a time. Since they detached to stand alone packs I figured that's how they were intended. Also each mre has multiple items that can be heated so I figured the four pack was good for the "meal" consisting of different heated good items.

I usually microwave for 1 minute and 30 seconds with that size. As the pack gets older, I increase the time a bit. The most I've ever used was 2 minutes, but that was with a really old one.

I always do the maximum (1/3 cup kernels + some oil) and that fills the bowl for me (about 2quarts). I would think that a smaller volume would work just as well. Just remember that the microwave time maybe different for different volumes so watch (and smell) carefully until you know what time works best for your specific situation (microwave power, popcorn type, oil type, etc). Best of luck!

Yes! You can even cut it into itsy-bitsy, tiny little pieces, if you want to--just like any other cloth!

I usually cook 6 strips at a time. I cover it with a paper towel and microwave on high for 4 minutes. Instructions said up to 8 slices only at 40 seconds per slice.

I`ve never done it this way but believe it`s not a good idea. The material the item is made is not flame resistance. In a microwave the energy from the microwave passes thru the material. A toaster oven is designed start heating from the outside which would mean before the potato hot 25% cooked, the bag would ignite! Not a good idea, sorry!

I don't think I would do that. They are two thin pieces of wood with some sort of filler between them. There is too much action around a microwave. They are not that solid.

You can reheat anything you normally would reheat in a microwave oven. It just can't hold that much

I would not recommend cotton swabs or kitchen towels. You don't have to get special cloths, but you don't want to use most things readily available, as they leave lint and fuzz. Instead, get some coffee filters, and you can use those as a good lint free cloth, that you can dispose of.
