can the mug go into a microwave without the lid

My first impression would be a solid no. It looks like stainless steel, and your microwave would have a problem.

No--it is stainless steel. I heat my coffee in a glass measuring cup in the microwave and then pour it into my cup where i have my selected creamer of the day-- and I don't have to stir it either!

Yes, the lid if removable, but I am not sure if the glass part is microwave safe. Maybe it is, I never checked. What are you planning to use it for in the microwave?

The lid does work without the infuser. The steel band is part of the infuser. I have never put mine in the microwave. I would think you could however. This is such an attractive tea pot but as with other glass pots it is fragile. I love mine.

I have not put them in the microwave so I really don't know if they are microwave safe. I love my mugs though.

No - in our case it fits into a holder and rolls out when we pull it out - put trash or recyclables into it and close it. So it works fine for us without a lid.

Over a short period of time the lid will loose its integrity. To prevent this occurance simply handwash, hand dry, and do not use in the microwave.

We have had no problems with the mug in the microwave. Because of the large mouth it doesn't hold the heat as well as I thought it should.

The lid is made out of plastic, so yes. It would touch the plastic of the lid as you drink it unfortunately. It's a great mug though!

I'm sorry I never used the mug with the lid off so I really can't help you.

Yes, the lid will work without the infuser. There isn't really a "band" - it's the infuser reflecting through the glass. I haven't tried using in the microwave - it's quite large. However, I really don't think it would be a good idea - the glass is quite thin and I think that the hotspots that arise during microwave use would be harmful to the pot.

Absolutely! I have hot coffee or hot tea almost every day. Microwave as a regular mug, no problems at all!

My husband microwaves his cup every day with the lid on and always with the vent open. He has had no problems. He only needs to microwave for a minute or less and we have not tried a longer time.

I have had mine for a week, I read the reviews prior to purchase so I do not put it in the microwave or the dishwasher. Each time I have washed by hand, I have not encountered problems with the lid fitting......I cannot disclose anything but my own experience

I am not sure, it only says not to microwave on the bottom, but the straw might break.

I don't prefer using lids in microwave although this can be because repeated cycles of heating can cause it to warp. Definitely a no in conventional ovem

Yes, this mug is microwavable. In fact, it's one of the main reasons I bought it.

Yes. The silver top of the mug is actually the lid. It screws on, but you do have to unscrew the lid to take a sip.
