Can they be warmed in the microwave?

I would suggest against it. The directions should probably include something about not microwaving the pads. What I've always done is heat water to a boil and slide the pillows into the boiling water, leaving it in until they have cooked between 7 and 10 minutes. They will have lost their stiffness inside and can be reused once they've cooled enough. All I can think about microwaving the pillows, is all the times we've cut a plastic bag to microwave the dinner we are going to eat hot. So even the food we are going to eat will not be too cold.

No, not directly. The activation button in the fluid is metal. See special instructions for microwave:http://hotsnapz.com/images/Microwave%20Instruction%20Card-Beta.pdf

Yes, they can go in the microwave. Sales woman explained that you slightly pull up on the pointed tab and fold it under just to give it a little vent.

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.

No. On the bottom of the bowl it says do not use in the microwave. Sorry it looks like you should be able to. :(

No, they are not. They will cave in and overflow in microwave.. Can be warmed in hot water with lid open, or used at room temp.

I haven't tried to microwave anything in them yet. But they are gorgeous and nice sizes! Sorry I couldn't be more help!

No they are not supposed to be heated in microwave because they may explode!

I'm sorry, I haven't used them in the microwave. I tend to use glass in the microwave.They are holding up very nice though in the dishwasher.

I am not aware if they are microwaveable, contact the seller to see if they are. I do wash them in the dishwasher and they are fine.

Yes, they can. I'm not much of a microwave user, but have used them there on occasion.

I think so. They are a very thick glass. I wouldn't think twice about putting one in the microwave.

Yes, it can be heated in the microwave but remove the wrapping and container and place it on a microwaveable plate.

Yes. I use them in the microwave all the time. When you heat water for tea, the outside of the glass barely gets warm.

I wouldn't microwave them, just to be overly safe because they are plastic. But they are small and would defrost quickly in a bowl of hot water.

I have never microwaved them. I only use them for salads. They are made of glass, so I don't see why they wouldn't be for a short period of time. I just wouldn't go from the refrigerator to microwave because of the quick temperature changes. Because they are thin glass, there is more of a chance of breakage.

I would never put them in the microwave anyway, but I don't think so! Any plastic or rubber wouldn't do, but the metal will break your microwave!

No. They cannot be put in a microwave oven. The coated rims would overheat.
