Do the dishes get very hot when used in the microwave?

So I bought these for my daughter as a gift, so I asked her and she told me that they don't get "very" hot... so my assumption is, they are microwave friendly. I can certainly tell you that she Loves Them... since she's in college... she's very microwave friendly! :o)

Actually, we gave those dishes to our granddaughter. I believe they aare supposed to be safe in the microwave, but I have no idea if they get hot in the mw. They are really pretty, and we've not heard any complaints from her!

I've put all the pieces in the microwave with problems... Have not experienced any "hot" plates beyond what you'd expect. Very durable.

They do get hot. I would suggest a kitchen towel or a pot holder when first getting them out. Also, the big plates are too big for your average microwave. So that might factor into your purchase as well. They are nice though. I have used them for over a year and I don't even have a chipped one yet. (With 2 kids that also use them regularly, that is an amazing feat.)

They don't get hot in microwave. Only complaint that I have, which is personal preference, is that plates are thick(I like thin but didn't realize until using these). However, they've been durable and for the cost are a home run.

I bought these as a gift for my daughter and she says yes, they often use them in the microwave.

Yeah, probably not as hot as quickly as glass, but yes. One nice thing is the bigger containers have handles, which tend to stay cooler longer and you can often pick them up by the handle without a potholder or anything. Everything gets hot to some degree in the microwave.

I have not used them in the microwave yet, but I love them for the lunches. We have 4 sets and I plan on buying someone soon, because there are 4 of us that use them all the time.

They are porcelain, and they do not get hot in the microwave. The food gets hot, but the dish stays cool enough to pick up.

Yes. To add on to someone's question about how hot they get after microwave use, they are not even close to my old Pfaltzgraf set, which I couldn't touch with my bare hands. These get fairly hot after minutes of microwaving, but if you're just warming something up briefly, you can touch them and they won't burn you. They're awesome.

I put them in the microwave with no problems. I've even put them on the lower rack of the dishwasher. They aren't the highest quality plastic but they certainly hold up.

I use mine in the microwave a lot. I can't remember if the label said they were, I know they are dishwasher safe.

I have not found that they are hot to touch, however, if I do anything in the microwave for more than 3 minutes, I usually adjust my power setting to 70% or less. Foods generally come out better if you nuke them for more time at less power.

We've had this set for a year and no they do not get hot. Now the items inside will get hot and that sometimes means that a bowl may be hot where the hot food touches but the dinnerware will not get hot by it's self.

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

These plates can be used in the microwave. They do get hot, especially in the areas where the food is lying; but, I have not been burned by them. They will actually be just slightly warm in all areas around the food.

Yes, these bowls are microwave safe. We use them that way occasionally, but it does seem they heat up more than a ceramic product. Hope you enjoy them. We do and we have plates and all.
