The issue is the flat buttons, it takes visual and tactile acuity to actually type a time correctly. Hitting 30 N number times is mentally way easier than navigating the locations on the flat slick keypad.

Same reason why audio volume on cars should be a dial, or maybe physical rocker, and never an abomination like a flat touchscreen like our current car.

I do 2. Our microwave actually doesn’t have number buttons. It’s got the 30 second button and then a slider section of the keypad where you just drag your finger across it and the time increases.

Are you too ignorant to input the cook time of 7:30?

Another big fan of the 30 second button. I would use it for anything up to and including 5 minutes, so I guess I draw the line at tapping it 10 times.

Press “2” and then “add 30 seconds”

I have no idea why, but DH would put it on for 3:30 and then have to monitor it the entire time. Or forget to monitor and it is overcooked. I don’t get it but I have stopped trying to understand or micro manage it.
