Why does it say, "Microwave safe without the lid"? It seems to defeat the purpose of heating them in the microwave if you can't use the lid.

you just add the tortillas to the bottom part with a damp paper towel (to prevent them from getting too dry) and then microwave. if you have the lead it would trap too much heat. it is super simple and easy to use and comes with an explanation. we use it all the time.

I'm not positive, but like for most containers (tupperware, for example), you take the lid off, or at least crack it, when heating in microwave. You could put a paper towel over the top. The tortillas should be hot out of the microwave, and then you can put the lid on to keep them warm.

I think they're like storage bowls. They may be okay to microwave a few times, but then they start to warp and melt. I absolutely wouldn't microwave the top pieces at all.

No. The lids don't seal so they're not very good. They're ok if you want to just lay the lid on to microwave, but they don't stay on.

I have not used it in the microwave myself, but I have read that it is microwave safe EXCEPT for the inner translucent lid. Hope this helps!

I havent had any trouble microwaving any of the bowls. I always take the lids off before i do. I dont know if it is needed but i leave them off as a precaution.

They do not say either on the cups or the package whether or not they are microwave safe. We have microwaved them a few times without incident, but I try not to do it often.

I saved the foam pieces that came with it to protect the glass when storing in my limited cupboard space, and they fit perfectly inside each other. You can even snap the lids on and store them inside each other without any issues. I do not believe the lids are microwave safe, and I wouldn't use them in the microwave anyway to avoid chemical leaching (hence the reason for using glass) but I am not 100% certain if they are not suitable for microwave use.

They are made out of a microwave safe material but it's not recommend with the lid.

ya know what? I dont bother I have one without a lid but if its worth it for you to pay postage for just 1 lid- you may be able to call the pyrex company and if I were you Id order a couple to make it worth the postage. something tells me you nuked it by accident?

It only says microwave safe & although it probably could withstand high heat, that does not mean direct heat, such as found on a stovetop. Personally would not use it for that purpose.

I ordered this one for my son but I have one I have had for years and yes I use the lids. I have enjoyed mine so much and if I cooked more these days I would order me a new one. Hope this helps, I will try to remember to ask him next time I talk with him but I would think you would use lids or the steam would just go in microwave, things would not steam. Just my thoughts.

I haven't used mine in the Microwave since it says on the bottom of the bowl not to. I don't always follow instructions, but I sure don't want to mess these nice bowls up!!

We have NOT tried these in the microwave, mainly because we're not using them where a microwave is accessible. It says on the lids -- "Open lid prior to use in microwave oven. Only reheatable, not for cooking." Based on that I'd assume you can use them to reheat in a microwave.

Hi ~Yep says right on the bottom Microwave safe I just looked:) These are awesome cups my husband, and myself both use them.

The silicone should be just fine in the microwave. I have not heated food with the lid, because I don't like putting plastics in the microwave. The beauty of the glass is that it doesn't release any chemicals. Also, these are truly no-leak!!!

Because it is not clearly marked, I wouldn't assume that they are microwave safe. My Pyrex bowls are all marked safe for microwave, for example. They are rather thin, so on the plus side each piece is lightweight, but not as durable as something heavier. I guess that's the trade off.

I wish I could help you, but I don't know. I would assume that the lid is not oven safe as it is a different plastic than the bowl. I've only used the bowls in the microwave, thus have never tried them in the oven.
