Are these heat safe? Can I put a plate out of the oven on them?

I would not put a plate straight from the oven onto the placemat. They are made of plastic and would melt. I think a glass, metal or wooden trivet is whatyou would need.

Good question! I don't remember seeing anything in the literature that said they are oven safe. They have a plastic like insulating material on the handles that is quite heat resistant, but to what temperature I am not sure. With that said I absolutely love the set. I did notice a previous answer said they can only be used with electric stovetop, which is incorrect. They can be used on any Electric or Gas stove top (mine is an induction type and these things work great on it).

Absolutely not! They are not made for high temps like the oven; however, they are definitely microwave friendly.

I don't think they are oven proof. I haven't used mine in the oven, can't remember if the info specified oven proof or not.

No, they are not microwave safe! Plate broke in two after microwaving under 3 minutes.

They are oven safe. I don't think id use it in that manner though. In a pinch it might do I guess.

They are definitely microwave safe. They are also oven safe as long as you are not using super high heat (e.g. broiler). I put them on a baking sheet so they're easier to retrieve from the oven once they're done.

Never a stupid question!! I haven't used them in the oven, but the tops can go on while the food is pipping hot, I would use tin foil in such applications anyway. The reflection of heat from foil would create a wonderful toasty crust to most food.

I don't know if they can be used in the oven but I don't see why they couldn't if you just want to keep something heated.

They are not oven safe - they melt at high temperatures and you would have a real mess. You can't leave them on while you're cooking on the range, either, and for exactly the same reason. They are nice if you have a tendency to 'dunk' your potholders in whatever it is you're cooking, but I don't think I'd buy them again.

They are advertised to be oven safe. I personally have not used mine in the oven.

I've never put them in the oven. It does not say you can. These pans cook great and do not stick.

You might be able to, but I have never tried. They just "feel" more like platters than baking pans. You could possibly use them to warm things in the oven or toaster oven I suppose. We love them - perfect for sending foods out to the grill and back on a separate platter, then putting them in the dishwasher.

Due to the plastic on handles and lids I would not use these in an oven; the plastic could warp or melt and cause burns or damage to your oven. There is a set available with steel handles which is supposed to be oven safe.

Yes, they are microwaveable. The edges don't get hot, and I can usually remove the plates/bowls without needing oven mitts, but the bottom of the plate/bowl gets hot to the touch were the heated food sits.

I have not tried it myself, I do believe they are heat proof so they should be fine to use. General comments on the Internet say not to forget to place at least a trivet or towel under the bowl when cooking.

They are not heat resistant and cannot be used while the pan is hot. Warm, sure, but not while hot. I melted one of mine slightly due to the pan being too hot while scraping.
