Can the plastic lids be used in the microwave or are they just for storing food in fridge?

The plastic lids can be used in the microwave, but I only use the glass cover for the microwave and save the plastic lids for storage.

I do not think any plastic is safe in a microwave, they freeze well, and store my soups well. I help with meals for our church and use these to take soup and other meals to people. They go through the dishwasher great, no warped edges and good seal. I just transfer to paper or glass for microwave.... Hope this helps.

The manufacturer states that they are microwave safe when you use a vented lid....personally, I don't like to microwave in anything plastic. Hope that helps!

these are great for the microwave and great for putting ice cream in for single servings. I love them and use them all the time. they can be reused all the time. that is what I do with mine. but just keep in mind if you drop one after in the freezer it will break just as will any other plastics. but they seal really good and I use them all the time for left overs and for ice cream and for microwave bowls. they are fantastic and I would recommend them to anyone. they are great. 5 star rating.

I have used them in the freezer to store red chili sauce I make with no problem but they are not pyrex and I broke one in the microwave once. So freezer is ok but not for use in the oven or microwave, in my experience.

I have put them in fridge, microwave, and dishwasher without any issues. Also, I have found silicone lids which make them a brilliant storage solution.

I use the plastic lids in the microwave all the time and I have not found it to be a problem.

I am not an expert but these are a special plastic blend similar to the frozen dinners containers at your local supermarket. I don't think it would be a good idea. They work in the microwave but I would never place in a regular oven at any temperature. FYI We like them except the lids are difficult to remove.

I have not used them in a microwave... but I have not had a microwave for years. They are paper and I got the impression they are the same type of containers that are used commercially. Hope this helps.

There are no lids for these bowls. We use them for cereal/soup bowls. They weren't intended to be used as storage bowls. If I do want to put it in the fridge, I use saran wrap.

I'm not sure, but that is mostly a concern with things you put in the microwave, and the lids are NOT microwavable.

I have Ben using them to freeze meals for quite some time. I think they do very well. I put them directly into the microwave to heat. However, I have found it is better to remove the lid. The microwave seems to shrink the lid and the next time I try to use the lid it is very hard to put it on the bowl. I enjoy eating from the glass bowl rather than plastic.

Good question. I wouldn't use them in the microwave as I don't with any plastics. So, my vote is no.

I warm food in these in the microwave a lot with no problems; just make sure the lid is not snapped close. I really like these containers.

Yes, l use them to freeze left overs. When you defrost in microwave Be sure to loosen the top or the lid will crack do to heat expanding.
