Do these plates get hot on the outside?

Yes they do. You cannot hold the outside of the plates while using this on your hair and/or once it heats up, but you don't need to. The area you press to close the waver is close to the plates and it is easy to close, hold, and release during the waving process.

No. But I didn't do my own hair. The hair dresser didn't have any problems though. And when turned off they cooled off quickly.

No they do not get hot. No, the print is clear even after months of use. They are beautiful !

We've heated plates to warm but not hotter. If you do microwave cups they tend to get very hot

No, they are not hot. I put them in the microwave often and never have a problem.

Yes they get warm to hot the higher the temperature! Had them for a few years never any problems.

It does get fairly warm but, try holding a little lower than where the plates end towards the handle. You'll have just as much control and won't get burned. Remember, it's a pro-tool so it does get considerably hot, so be cautious in handling it either way.

No, these do not get hot. We are able to remove plates/bowls/cups without the whole container taking on heat from the microwave. Areas not in direct contact with food/liquid being heated are not hot. HTH

As long as the handles are off to the side they don't get unreasonably hot. They do get a little warm but nothing that requires oven mitts.

Yes they do. I have them on a roof deck, covered by an indoor outdoor carpet. Even the carpet gets hot in the sun, though.

Yes, and even prettier in real life. The photo doesn't do them justice. We also like that ours don't get hot when used in the microwave. Our old plates got hot, but the food stayed cold. These stay cool and the food gets hot.

I have never put them in the oven. They get hot in microwave but no hotter than any other plate. they are a nice heavy plate. I have a 12 place setting. Very nice set.

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've not had any problems at all. But I don't have them touching my home. they hang from my balcony railing. I love them. They don't get hot either.

They are fairly durable and hard plastic, I have not tried to use them on something that is currently hot but I am pretty sure as long as you don't let it just sit there then you should be fine.

My husband puts these plates in the oven all the time. However he just does it to warm up something with the oven not hotter than 250.

For the most part the handles stay cool. I have noticed the handles get hot near the pan when the pan is heated to a high temperature.

The outside does get hot as the product is stainless steel. I typically put a cutting board under the product just in case. The product did not produce enough heat to worry about heating the room versus the oven.
