    Same vibe but I only use the +30s button to enter cook time. Bonus points to microwaves that automatically start when you press +30.

      Yep, the cooking gets going while I press the +30 button additional times, saving precious second. Wish I could also change the power level while it’s running. update: That actually does work! +30 all the foods!

      My microwave automatically starts when pressing 1-6 and then the +30sec button is the start button.

      The max I can do with two button presses is 6:30.

      If the microwave wasn’t underpowered it would be perfect.

      Our new microwave has that and the buttons 1-6 will start that number of minutes immediately. We were pretty excited about it because our old microwave didn’t even have the 30sec button.

        what brand is that?

        good to acknowledge when companies actually improve products rather than just enshittifying them
