I would agree with you, but I still want to own a microwave. There are none with reasonable UI behavior as far as I can tell.
(Edit) For example: Opening the door a few seconds early always leaves time on the display which should just automatically clear after a minute or two. Obviously if the user doesn't use that leftover time immediately then they aren't going to.
Peak microwave
One dial is power level, the other is time.
I just ordered this, I love it, thank you
No, this is the peak microwave, from 1997
Neat! Iโve only ever seen commercial-grade ones like that.
Looks good actually.
But how does it handle the door opening early? Does it still leave unused time sitting on the time dial?
Yeah, it doesn't clear the dials, and if you want to manually reduce the time you do need to adjust the time dial, but you get a delightful bell sound when you do so. The door does stop the magnetron when open though.
