Had a friend who got a microwave that instead of a numpad it had a dial like a volume knob. It was so irritating for some reason to twist it and then have to turn it the opposite way to correct it. Like you wanted 45 seconds and you’d twist and it’s be at 1:30, youd scroll back, 35… 50, fuck it good enough. I just would twist it to a number and then stop it 45 seconds in after I realized it was that way
I don’t think you can even input :60 except as in 2 presses of [+30 seconds]

Every microwave I’ve ever lived with has had a knob to input time. Maybe this is a regional thing?
My old one was completely analog and just had dials for time and power and a single button to open the door. Truly an efficient interface!
