OXO's website clearly states that they are "microwavable." http://www.oxo.com/p-1004-small-large-bowl-set.aspx

I just read that they are not recommended for use in the microwave. Oops. :P

I believe the package says they are not microwave safe but we microwaved them all the time and they still look great. Got these when my son was 6 months old and now he is 29 months old and they are still used daily for snacks and meals.

I used it for like 30sec in microwave and its stained the bowl, I had pureed carrots in it. So I was fairly disappointed.

Not sure. I know that it's dishwasher safe for top rack only. I've never put it in the microwave though

Good question. I wouldn't use them in the microwave as I don't with any plastics. So, my vote is no.

Yes they are microwave safe. I've used them for desserts and hot/cold savory foods...

As I remember they were marked microwave safe. I never experienced a problem using them in the microwave. I was very pleased with these dishes overall.

Yes they are microwave safe. I've used them a number of times there and they stay fairly cool to the touch unless you nuke the food for over six minutes. This was my second set of this style and have had the first set over ten years.

They are labeled dishwasher and microwave safe as far as being oven safe goes I'm not sure.

I've used them in the microwave without any trouble. But I haven't tried them in the microwave for more than a minute or two. I can't imagine they aren't microwave safe.

I'm not sure if they are considered microwave safe, but I have used them in the microwave. Seem to be okay.. I never noticed it did not say it in the discription.

I'm not sure... They are dishwasher safe, but I don't think it's recommended to use in the microwave because of the toxins in the plastic.

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.

I doubt it. They are plastic. I haven't and wouldn't even try it. I have put them in the microwave. But I avoid microwaves as much as possible myself. Just my preference on reheating food.

They are microwave and dishwasher safe but I do not microwave the covers since they are plastic. They are great

I don't know. I do know they are microwave safe, but that doesn't answer your question. I would guess that they are not oven safe since it is not mentioned in any of the descriptions.

Yes, they are both dishwasher and microwave safe. I wouldn't have purchased then if they weren't.

These are stainless and no metal should be microwaved so I wouldn't think it would be safe. I always microwave in glass.

They are NOT indicated as "microwave safe" on the bowls. They are a Type 2 plastic, which is "high density polyethylene" (HDPE) = May be safe, although some recommend against food contact when microwaving. I personally do NOT use these in the microwave. They seem fine in the top rack of the dishwasher, but I wouldn't put them on the bottom rack.

I've never tried them in them in the microwave. I would imagine they'd be fine though.
