After weeks of thinking about it way too much, we finally bought a microwave. Did you know Panasonic and LG are the only big brands that make their own? Everyone else outsources to one big company that mostly uses the same innards.

Also if you are one of the 0.001% of folks (like me) who adjust the cook power, inverter tech is actually value added. Yay!

@User47 Also, I PROGRAM my microwave. For example, oatmeal is 2:30 on high followed by 5:00 at 40%.

@mlanger @User47 Everything in a microwave is cooked on full power in increments of 30 seconds using the +30 seconds button. The rest of the buttons are useless

@chrisod @User47 Not in my world. Although I don't use any of the buttons labeled with food names.

@mlanger @chrisod also apparently the new sensors are good and use steam as a pretty accurate indication of “doneness” for a lot of stuff.

@User47 @mlanger The defrost cycle on ours works shockingly well. I've used it a couple of times in an emergency when I forgot to defrost something I needed in 5 minutes, and the microwave did an impressive job of defrosting without cooking.
