Box says yes, experience says no. I had ok experience with them until I heated up something with a sauce, which changed the texture of the bottom of the container permanently. I don't use them in the microwave anymore.

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.

Yes, they are both microwave and dishwasher safe according to the statement on the bottom of each piece of pottery. I have used the dishes in the microwave and they were fine.

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.

I think I remember them saying not to microwave them but I do. I've never had any problems with microwaving the compartments.

NO, not microwave safe. I hand wash mine. I use them for entertaining outside on our patio and everyone remarks on how nice they look.

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, the lids are microwave safe. Don't seal them in the microwave, leave the lids loose. The company says they are safe, but some people don't like to microwave with plastic. The decision is up to you.

I only use it to send lunches (cold) to school with my daughters. When I send soup or pasta, I use a Thermos brand Funtainer food jar. Based on the type of plastic it doesn't strike me as microwave friendly. I am sorry I cannot give you a definitive answer.

Yes. The bowls appear to be microwave safe. However, after heating water for one minute in the bowl, you need a hot pad to remove it from the microwave. Knowing this, I would still buy this set. I think because the bowls are delicately designed is why they retain the heat. However, they are very durable.

I'm not sure if they are microwave safe or not but didn't see it anywhere so would go with no. They are great cups though and the three sizes makes them that much more convenient.

The product description stated they are microwave, dishwasher (top rack), and freezer safe. I have not had any problems using them in these appliances. If you are concerned, I would contact the manufacturer.

Annie, Sistema products come in different colors for a reason. The red containers are for both cooking in the mw and reheating in the mw. The white containers (with blue trim) are for storage and "reheating-with-caution." Notice that the red containers have a vent which needs to be open when cooking/reheating. The white/blue containers do not have a vent. Personally, I use only the red for cooking from scratch. I learned a lot from visiting the sistema website (www.sistemaplastics.com). I also learned from reading the Amazon customer Q&A about Sistema products BTW, sometimes I use just the red outside container without the "steaming" part. Usually I do not season the water when steaming except for salt/pepper. Why waste herbs & spices? Yesterday I steamed broccoli, removed the water & steamer & returned the broccoli to the red steamer. Then I sauted the cooked broccoli in my mw with fresh garlic and brown butter. I have not cooked eggs or meat or corn-on-the-cob in my mw. I've been using Sistema products for close to a year, and am a walking advertisement for Sistema products. There is a longer learning curve when mw cooking, so be prepared for some trial and error - especially with timing.

No. These are made of polycarbonate plastic which is not considered microwave safe.
