Does this dinnerware get too hot in the microwave?

Not overly at all! It obviously gets somewhat hot, but it's a very thick glass. This set is amazingly sturdy and well made! AWESOME! No complaints!

It does get hot. If I heat soup in the bowls I need to use a pot holder and then put on sandwich plate until it cools off. If you have younger children who use microwave you might want to pass on these dishes. If will be used only by adults - then no problem with pot holders.

They are not designed to withstand the "heat" of a microwave. I use glassware in the microwave.

Yes! I own a set of 12 of these plates and bowls. I called the company before buying and they said "microwave safe." We've never had a problem with any of our dishes in the microwave.

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.

I've microwaved in them plenty of times, just remember the containers are rated to 100ºC (that's 212ºF!) so be sure not to heat it too much. The plastic is safe, but the container won't be much use if it melts.

I really think they don't get much hotter than my other dishes. They are heavy and so beautiful and we enjoy them, I maybe crazy but I think the food tastes better,their beautiful. We want to purchase another set. Enjoy them!!!!

No they don't get hot. I have microwaved these and other shapes and sizes of the same type, and no problems. I think they are realy nice looking and serviceable.

Googled your question. Fiestaware company site says usually 350 for dinnerware but theirs will work up to 500 degrees; just don't place them on a direct flame.

I have never put them in microwave. They are glass so they will probably get hot. Just use a paper towel.

I've put them in the dishwasher and they haven't warped or melted, but I haven't put them in the microwave. I have mixed hot foods in them and it has not been a problem. They seem sturdy and durable enough to tolerate a fair amount of heat. Nothing too extreme. I would trust them in the microwave.

They are dishwasher safe. The one thing I've noticed about using them in the microwave is they tend to absorb all the heat instead of heating up the food. So the plate is hot but the food isn't.

I have used the bowls in the microwave and they do get hot. I hold the bowl with a dish cloth while I'm eating from it. There has been no damage to them. They are microwave safe. I love those dishes.

No. You can't use it in the microwave, so I never used it for anything hot. I love the design but have broken 2 and switched to silicone which bounces.

Yes, haven't had a problem yet and have had them since November. They are a bit hot when you use to microwave on.

When you microwave the plates do the plates themselves get abnormally hot. I have had porcelain dishes that when you microwave them they are warm after microwaving, but I have had some stoneware plate before and with the same time in the microwave they get really hot. Where do these dishes come out on the after microwave hotness scale? Thanks!

Yes. We have never had a problem with the handles being too hot. We still use this set everyday! Looks like new!

I do not have a dishwasher, but have used the dishes in the microwave continuously for eight months. No problem at all. I can not imagine that they would not be dishwasher safe. They are beautiful. The dinner plates generously sized.
