The microwave that came with my house is the first time I’ve ever had a microwave that had perfectly working popcorn setting. It has never burnt a bag of microwave popcorn.

    Try the numbers if you have them. I recently discovered that hitting 2 instantly starts 2 minutes then +30 saves me having to press +30 five times for the equivalent.

    I was starting to worry about how much abuse my +30 button could take.

      My last microwave was like that. However my current one has low contrast labels on the button pad, so it’s too much work to find where to press. However +30 is conveniently in the bottom right corner

      I do use the auto-defrost a lot, which is annoying to find, but in that case I need to press multiple buttons so I need to get extra close anyway

        4 times extra but five times total to reach the equivalent.

        Edit: just to be extra clear in the comment I’d be getting 2:30 with just one press of the +30 button
