It is to big to put in a microwave. It works great in the oven cuts the cooking time and it makes things crispy

No, cannot be used in microwave. It is basically made of Teflon coated wire mesh.

I have never tried to put it in a microwave. I only use it for pool chemicals.

I don't think I'd use in the microwave. Maybe the freezer would be OK if you were careful about how much liquid was inside.

its' been a year since we bought it, so can't be 100% positive, but yes, our recollection is that it can be microwaved. But however we heated it, we liked it a lot.

I would not attempt it. I have no need to put it in the microwave. I am happy with it's intended use.

Yes, I've used them in the microwave multiple times. However, I would recommend keeping an eye on them just in case, and don't put them in for a really long time. A minute to two minutes or so is fine.

Yes. It works like a champ in the microwave. Use mine usually twice a day for tea.

Don't think I've ever tried it in the microwave. It's fine in the dishwasher though, so micro is probably okay..,

No you can't use this in the microwave because it has a metal insert that the top screws into. Also I would think that even if that wasn't the case, you wouldn't want to microwave a sealed item like this because it could explode under preasure.

I would think so. Haven't used it in the microwave but I wouldn't hesitate to do it.

I am fairly certain this should only be heated in a microwave oven. But, I would suggest that you write to the manufacturer to be sure!

You are able to take the glass portion out of the plastic holder so yes in theory you could use it in the microwave. I personally don't think I would be microwaving the glass portion though. You would need mitts to pull it out and then you would not be able to put it back into the plastic holder which would defeat the purpose of intended use.

Absolutely!! I use it in the microwave all the time. That is the main reason I purchased it, to make peanut brittle. The Karo syrup and sugar gets so hot you can burn your hand. My Pyrex measuring cup is great as it has a handle that does not get hot.

The glass is pretty thin so I do not recommend using in the microwave. I actually do not even use mine, pretty poor quality. There is a tiny hole in the bottom that water from the dishwasher will get into.

Yes, that's how I used mine. It's definitely NOT for use in a microwave, though.

It's not supposed to be used in the microwave, but I have put mine in for a min. or two at a time, and it hasn't melted.

No, I almost answered yes, but it has a metal zipper to take the cover off and wash or replace, so no you could not put it in the microwave. Sorry.
