If you have the name of the manufacturer perhaps you can contact them directly, via email or phone. They would know best if there is a way besides the microwave.

glenda, sorry i can`t help you. i use mine for cold application only. without a micro wave i think it would be impossable. direct heat from a direct source might well ruin it. i just use a heating pad.

If you unsnap the heating pad cover there is a square of material inside. Remove this, wet it, wring it out so it is only moist. Put it back inside the outer covering. It will heat up and deliver moist heat.

get yourself a $25 wax heater on Amazon. It will be easier to keep the mess and hassle all contained instead of attempting other microwave options suggested. With a heater the temp will be more consistent too.Gigi Wax Warmer (Model: 0225)

Place it in the microwave....For best results, set the microwave to 2 minutes and 30 seconds.

I have a 1230w microwave and heat it on high. I've only tried baking one potato inside the bag (it doesn't seem to be big enough for four). Another thing I do that works well, is after washing the potato (do not dry it), I wrap it in a damp paper towel and put them both in the bag. When the 4 minutes is up, you'll see steam, but the potato comes out nice and soft and ready to eat.

It'll make it as crispy as you want. Just keep it in the microwave about an extra two minutes. Any more than that would be burned.

The crock will reset. It will not continue to cook until you start it again. Try unplugging it and plugging it back in. You will see that there is no memory function if power is lost.

You do not soak in water before use, as you heat it in the microwave the moisture is drawn out of the beads inside the pack. I place my pad on a paper plate before putting in the microwave to heat up and there is always a small amount of moisture on the plate before I wrap it on myself. This heat pad is washable. Follow the directions on the packaging and make sure that it is dry before you heat to use it again.

Sure you can turn it on again and it will heat up. I would turn it off asap to prevent burning or just make another smll or at dinner.

I put it in a throw away tin and heat it. You can use a microwave just make sure you check the temperature of the wax before you slap it on your skin so you don't get burned

Hi, Alex...the product comes with a little empty bag that they suggest putting uncooked rice in and then heating it in the microwave for a few seconds to warm it up. I have not tried to heat the rice another way but I would suspect you could carefully saut it, dry, in a pan until warm but be careful. to to burn it, and then add the rice to the bag.

Hi, not to cook. We used it as a warmer after we cooked hotdogs we wrapped them up in foil. Cut in half for our kids party. It worked great.

The pad has no temp control. It is either on or off. A rheostat might work.

Use a regular microwave cooker, as you would for veggies. The Potato Express isn't worth your time or money.

You could make hot chocolate as it has heating element. Cleaning up would be difficult since it has cutting blades. ...Any recipe you have could be used

You can reheat pasta, that's already cooked. Won't come out "gummy" . No eggs.
