Is it safe to serve hot/warm food in these bowls?

I wouldn't serve anything hot in these...I would only serve hot foods in glass or ceramic bowls. I know it's not really ideal if you have a little one. However, I am really not sure. You could always call the company to be sure. I've served "warm" food in these, but I don't like to serve anything hot in something that's not glass or ceramic. I usually just watch my little one and make sure the glass bowl stays on the table.

I serve oatmeal, spaghetti, ravioli, soup etc. In these bowls. I typically cook it in a separate container and then put it in the bowl.

I don't know if they're microwave safe, but I frequently put hot food in them to serve my children. We haven't had any issues at all. These bowls and plates are extremely durable. We use them daily for our 4 and 6 year old for over a year and half and they still look brand new.

I agree with most of the others - we don't put these in the microwave but I have definitely served hot soup, pasta, etc in them.

I would say no. They aren't supposed to be exposed to extreme temperature changes and it seems to me a microwave would heat them too quickly.

I doubt it. They are plastic. I haven't and wouldn't even try it. I have put them in the microwave. But I avoid microwaves as much as possible myself. Just my preference on reheating food.

Since Pyrex bowls are safe in ovens (well over 200 degrees) and on a gas range burner over a flame (very hot), using them in a double-boiler (212 degrees maximum for boiling water) should present no problem, though I've never tried it.

I've put them in the dishwasher and they haven't warped or melted, but I haven't put them in the microwave. I have mixed hot foods in them and it has not been a problem. They seem sturdy and durable enough to tolerate a fair amount of heat. Nothing too extreme. I would trust them in the microwave.

Well if you do canning you know these are boiled at high temperatures to preserve food, and I've heated up foods in the microwave in the past, I wouldn't try cooking with them in the microwave but do believe them to be safe for reheating foods.... Just keep in mind it is thin glass

Yes, these bowls are microwave safe. We use them that way occasionally, but it does seem they heat up more than a ceramic product. Hope you enjoy them. We do and we have plates and all.

My husband ordered these bowls and we have thoroughly enjoyed their use. We aren't sure about whether they are rated for microwave use, but we personally would not use them in the microwave. There are small rubberized areas (handle and bottom of bowls) which, for us, would exclude this option.

They are dishwasher safe as well as microwave safe. I love my bowls-- use them all the time!!

You can probably lightly microwave food in them if you are careful. As long as you heat food up in short intervals like 90 seconds at a time stirring in between intervals you will probably be okay. Setting the microwave on 5 minutes and leaving it would melt the containers undoubtedly.

I have not used them in the microwave but I would think so as glass is usually tempered to withstand heat. You'd re-heat soup since they're soup bowls.

Yes, we use the bowls in the microwave and heat soup with them often. If I remember correctly they are also safe to 350 degrees in the oven.

No, these are definitely not made to hold hot foods. For chili or soup, you would be much better off with styrofoam or waxed paper containers.

I would be hesitant to serve anything hot in it, which you probably wouldn't do anyway. Tin teapot and cups would become hot also. But something cold or warm should be okay.

I wouldn't microwave them, just to be overly safe because they are plastic. But they are small and would defrost quickly in a bowl of hot water.

No reason not to.... The bowls are ceramic so as long as they are cleaned properly after every feeding, there shouldn't be an issue.

No, they are not. The bottom of the bowl says not to put them in the microwave. But I do like them as mixing bowls -- and they are slip-resistant.
