The commercial microwaves we have at work have both a large dial to set the time, and four large buttons under it for 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% power. No other controls. They are great.

If the power level buttons were an old school radio button that would be so cool

  • That's my microwave, I don't remember which brand right now but it was just one of the cheapest at Mediamarkt. It has one mechanical dial for time and one dial for power. It works fine.

    I've never had a problem finding such models. My previous microwave is similar and was also one of the cheapest I could find then. It's about 10 years old now, and now sits at work because we didn't need two of them at home. It's next to an older one at work that is also similar and is probably around 15 years now.
