Can i heat this any other way besides a microwave?

No. It should be treated the same as any microwave-safe plastic container. It is very easy to hand wash. I have 2 and use them for a variety of foods, especially Chinese cuisine where I have several dishes like spring/egg rolls, fried rice and a stir fry entre. Well worth the price.

This warmer is made of a plastic type resin. It wouldn't do well in an oven or on a grill. There are clay warmers like this that you could heat some way other than a microwave.

Probably not. It holds the heat of cooked foods, such as tortillas or pancakes, pretty well, why would you want to heat it, its a "keeper" not a heater.

I try to avoid putting plastics in the microwave. I wouldn't use this to heat anything up. It is great for sandwiches and salads and hard boiled eggs.

I believe the directions state for microwave use only, so I would say no to any other kind.

I don't see why you couldn't but it actually doesn't need to be warmed up. It works best at room temperature

I think one should be able to heat it with hot water. I don't have this product, but i am thinking of buying it and am scared of heating things in microwave. http://www.mercola.com/article/microwave/hazards2.htm

The directions clearly state to use a microwave. The item is pricey. I would be afraid to try it. I would send an email to the vendor through Amazon & ask that question. They are the ones in the know. They are good about answering.

I'm pretty sure you can. I have done this a few times myself without any adverse effects. I do know for certain, that they make a Freeze 'n Steam bag (FSFSBC0316) which allows you to freeze and then steam in the microwave.

Yes, you can use heat, on the lower settings.. It won't melt it ,or burn it in the least, as long as you are careful, and watch what you're doing. :)

I don't see why you couldn't. The exterior does get hot, which is relative to how high the temp is inside the oven.

Frankly, I Haven't ckecked that. However, you can bake it and put it in the microwave, so I think it has pretty high tollerance to heat. Hope this helps.

You can reheat anything you normally would reheat in a microwave oven. It just can't hold that much

I just heat it on the Swissmar appliance. I guess you could just put it in the oven for a few minutes but I don't know why you'd need to.

Yes, you can. I use microwave to heat water filled bag for 6 minutes at 1000 W. I didn't experience any problem.

Of course you can't! It has a metal stainless interior - it'll spark and possibly light a fire if you try to microwave it.

I don't microwave plastic. I'm sure you can but you risk leaching chemicals and melting the thing. If you're looking to disinfect it then you can use boiling water or rinsing with rubbing alcohol (this is what I do).

It's not safe to do this; the handle woud get too hot. Use a ceramic cup to warm your milk in the microwave instead!

yes, I put mine in the microwave for ten seconds on each side. Directions recommend that you heat in ten second intervals (or less) until you know what works for your particular microwave.
