I have used the bowls in the microwave and they do get hot. I hold the bowl with a dish cloth while I'm eating from it. There has been no damage to them. They are microwave safe. I love those dishes.

These are like stoneware. But using pot holders works well. I haven't seen any damage from the heat.

The dishes are ceramic. I have seven sets of them for entertaining. I can't tell you how much I love them! I use hot pads when taking them out of the microwave.

I have the same plates and I love them. I have never had a plate not get hot in the microwave. I really try and heat food on the stove or in the oven. I don't like heating in the microwave I don't think that using plastic or ceramic in a microwave is healthy. I guess the best bet is paper plates or bowels then transfer the food to your beautiful dishes. I purchased these last year and when they arrived a few were broken and they sent me a whole new set! I have priced similar plates in my area and they are $8.00-$12.00 for each dinner plate! These dishes are a real find and a recommend them to all. I have the same plates and I love them.

I like these becuase they are ceramic. Ceramic stands up to heat and elements better. They are good value and good quality. Fast shipping also. Hope that helps

Yes, I use mine in the microwave and I also preheat the plates or bowls in my oven. I am very impressed with this dinnerware !

Also from many years of cooking etc. Stoneware tends to get alot hotter I.E. (using in the microwave). Ceramics do not. Stoneware also tends to start cracking after years of use. Ceramics I have used last years longer before they start to have the small hairline cracks in them. Hope this helps :)

They're made of porcelain, but you can put them in the microwave. You'll need to be a little extra careful with them, though, as they seemed to chip more easily than stoneware. They're very beautiful in person, though.

Not stoneware. Beautiful setting, sturdy and lovely dinnerware. You will be happy with it.

Ceramic. It is NOT stone ware. It will break if dropped on the ground. I own one myself and I take great care of it. Otherwise a fantastic product.

This stoneware does not burn when microwaved. It does not seem to chip like other stoneware. I ve had my set for about 6 months and really love it!

No. The ceramic is unfinished on the bottom. The set has been fabulous. I have used them several times a week in the oven & microwave. A great bargain for the price and it looks lovely on the table. I will be using it again this Thanksgiving for the turkey and dressing.

I gave the bowls as gifts in December so do not have them with me now. I believe that they were stoneware. They were very nice - all recipients have been very pleased with them. Highly recommended!

The one one I have is ceramic I have use it both way and works either way. Your choice. It just depends how hot you want your food

I use them in the microwave. They don't get any hotter than any other dishware. Always use caution pulling anything out of the microwave.

Stoneware is fired at 2370 degrees. I'm pretty sure it can take 425 degrees. But, like any high fired ceramic pieces, be careful to avoid thermal shock by lowering the heat gradually. Enjoy!

The cups are stamped "Stoneware" and "made in China." I didn't want the stoneware cups, either, but that's what came with the set. As it turns out, they are fine. They microwave well, and really hold the heat. They also clean well.

I have had stoneware pieces in the past that took years and years of being microwaved without damage. Assuming that it IS indeed stoneware as advertised, it should hold up, though I would check for any specific warnings against it on the item just in case.

Ceramic. I highly recommend this product. The pasta bowls are not only lovely but very functional. We use these quite often!

Yes, they are both microwave and dishwasher safe according to the statement on the bottom of each piece of pottery. I have used the dishes in the microwave and they were fine.
