Microwaves work fine in the cold. Microwave ovens have issues because when the parts inside the oven (turn tables, platters, etc) heat they heat unevenly (because no microwave oven heats anything evenly). If they are cold enough, the now hot parts expand faster than the rest of the platter, and thus explode.
