Are these safe to cook over? We're going camping soon, and will doing all of our cooking over the fire.

I'm not sure. But, they do give off a bit of a scent, so I would not suggest using them to cook over.

Personally, I WOULD NOT cook over them because they're very fragrant and emit such fragrance AND, they drip wax. They're far to pricey for me. They don't last the expected time, as I recall, some 3 hours. Will never buy again. Thank you.

I wouldn't think so. They're made from a semi-flexible plastic so definitely don't put them on heat/flame.

I would say beware of these. I had to throw them away because 2 of them caught fire as I was using them just to cook on the stovetop.

I do not know. I just followed the directions and sprayed lightly with cooking spray. They turned out well. Maybe your over is a little hotter than it shows.

I wouldn't. We try not to,but we do occasionally,with no repercussions. I'd like my cookware to last so I take care of it by using plastic or wooden utensils. They do make great utensils that are safe for this surface. Enjoy your cooking���.

They are not heat resistant and cannot be used while the pan is hot. Warm, sure, but not while hot. I melted one of mine slightly due to the pan being too hot while scraping.

Sure they can. I've used mine plenty of times over an open campfire. Just watch the plastic/rubber on the handles that they don't melt if you get them to close to the fire.

Hi Curt , I would think you would have to burn them on there own? If you have done that not sure : ( But we used ours for our BBQ smoker as they put out great heat .

From the answers I've read it seems you can and they are safe up to 500 degrees (wouldn't try 500 degrees myself), but they are a very sturdy, well made set and cook and clean up VERY WELL!!!

The orange handles can overheat and melt but only if in direct flame. I used my set 2 weeks camping last summer without any problem.

Sort of. Just use any skillet and place over the grill. Some time ago I purchased a three set of cast iron skillets I use for camping. These and I am sure others work well

They are not safe on the stove, much less the oven! They are not made to go in the oven as they do not do high heat well at all. I had pit the small pot on the stove just to boil water, and I came back and all the coloring came off the Pot, and there was still water in the Pot. So beware, and be safe okay. Hope this will help.yo

I wouldn't try it over an open fire. The plastic coatings would melt, and the bottoms would be hard to clean. It works well over a small stove, in fact one will fit inside with a small tank of fuel.

I would strongly advise against it altho' I've never tried----they are after all advertised as nuke and oven safe and I've not encountered any problems when using them in eithercheersbob

I really think in an emergency situation you could use them over a fire, but I would use a regular stove or hot plate maybe even a propane burner.

absolutely fine to use over gas burner, we do it all the time, and in the oven. However, be careful with the lids, because they do not appear to be the same quality glass as the pots. One of ours shattered when subjected to rapid cooling

I've not used mine for either but suspect it would not be the best way to cook them. The fire is on one long burner and would only heat a narrow portion of the pot or coffee maker.
