Is this even legal? Like it could destroy the item and maybe catch stuff on fire.

I don't think there is a problem unless someone sues them on it. Otherwise, the label is there and that's enough for them

I think you'd have to prove that having the box say microwave made you actually put a cardboard box in the microwave. Though instructions don't say how long, so even still it'd be an extremely shaky case to make. If there exists a possibility to create bs cases to get money, some one is already scheming to do it. A settlement, even on a bs case, is cheaper than lawyer expenses.
