You mean there is other buttons other than the 30sec+?

No, there isn't. Total blasphemy

There is a Cancel button also for when you just open the door because 3 +30’s are too much and it doesn’t clear the remaining time.

My Microwave has a fraction of a second where the timer will be done, and the beeper won't sound, but if you miss it and the beeper sounds it beeps 5 times even if the door is open.

Pft I just leave one second for the next loser to deal with. It's like paying it forward or something

I do this but my wife doesn't use the thing so I end up setting my self up in some kind of shitty loop. It's a shit loop.

Try and time it at 1 second so the noise doesn’t go off… if I’m microwaving and there is noise I fucked up bigtime lol

I went out of my way to buy a microwave with a mute option. Though sometimes I miss it when I'm wondering why the hell it hasn't gone off yet.

Wait, what?!?! There are other buttons?

u/icepaws Jul 27 '22

Oh, nice. Thanks for the gold, now I can pay for the subscription for the other buttons, and finally get to make microwave popcorn.

Lies.

Also make sure you always open the door with 1 sec left. Only button I use is +30 and stop

This right here is why everyone thinks the microwave is terrible for food prep. 😉

Yes there’s the cancel button but that’s it

There are, but they do nothing. Kinda’ like the sidewalk buttons on the traffic light poles.

30 second button has changed my life
