Can I use this in my microwave? I've been nuking bacon too often.

I would not recommend to use this in the microwave. Why don't you just use some form of a cleaner with bleach in it to get rid of the bacon smell.

No. The chemicals (I'm sure they're highly toxic) would eventually leach into your food. Leave the door open for a while when you finish makin' the bacon, and wipe off any splatter from the bacon....immediately.

Yes you can.; If you look on the bottom you will see the microwave symbol and I just used the small blue one today, works great. Watch fore the ones that say DO NOT microwave.

I have never used it in the microwave. Wouldn't think of it with the plastic top and plug in the bottom.

I own a microwave oven, but, it's only used for heating my lavender- rice bag ( for when I over-do my exercise or pick up a heavy grandchild), or for disinfecting my kitchen sponge each night, by nuking for 1 minute and 10 seconds. Microwaving food changes the molecular structure of it, so I don't re- heat or cook in it. So, sorry no help with your query. However, I love the set. I own many sets of the Crisa Moderno. And I've bought as gifts for others. Best of luck with your shopping.

Yes it can... but you must carefully watch the cooking time and check the bacon a few times while cooking. It doesnt take long for crispy bacon to burn even in your microwave if you leave it unattended. The bacon cooker allows you to take off bacon for those who prefer it less than crispy and allows you to continue to cook the bacon until it reaches the crispiness you desire. Just carefully check it a few times.

Hi Beth, I'm not sure if this can go in a microwave. I do use it in my oven on a convection setting though. Hope that helps a little :)

You can bake with it in the oven. Not sure about microwave? I don't really care for it.

It's not supposed to be used in the microwave, but I have put mine in for a min. or two at a time, and it hasn't melted.

Hi, I'm pretty sure it's made of metal, so you would not want to use it in a microwave. I use it for an extra shelf in my RV cabinets.

I've used mine to cook Celeste Pizza (supposed to be made in the microwave - blah!) and it comes out terrific. I've used it to reheat other fast foods and they turn out well too. Hope this helps.

You can place it in the oven but I do not believe you can use it in the microwave

We sterilize with the microwave. You put a little bit of water in the bottom and then nuke it on high for 4 minutes. Seems to be ok with that.

I have no problem fitting it into my microwave. It's 12" x 10". I've been using these for over 10 years since it was sold under another name. One finally cracked last year so I just got two more. I love them and NEVER fry bacon any more. I always cover the bacon or whatever I'm cooking with paper towels to keep the grease from spattering on my microwave. It depends on what and how much you're cooking as to how much time it takes. A full pan of bacon can take 4-6 minutes depending on thickness or even brand as well as how crispy you want it. We eat a lot of bacon and I would not be without this pan. I have no problem fitting it into my microwave. It's 12" x 10".

It is plastic, so I wouldnt...(its fairly thick plastic, but no plastic is safe in a microwave)

I have used it in the microwave, and unfortunately it did not hold up well. It showed signs of melting after the first use. So now I just heat in a microwave safe dish and then place heated food inside.I have used it for chips, but the container size determines how many chips you can get in. Lately, I have been just buying pretzel sticks because it's easy to place them in than chips.

I always make a batch for one week. I never thought about making it in the microwave. I'm not really sure.

L. Carroll, have you purchased this and tried it in the microwave...we desperately need a butter dish that will not heat up and melt the tender bottom of the butter when nuked.
