  1. This Panasonic microwave oven lasted just over 20 years. It's awaiting transport to the city recycle dropoff.

    I got a new one. On sale anyway, plus a $20 discount coupon, plus another "circle" discount. End price was $120 for what looks like a decent powerful one. No Wi-Fi. 🤣

    Target allows cascading discounts like that. Yeah, Target, but it's very close by.

  2. CW: food reference

    Does anyone have any smart way of stopping beans exploding when reheating food in the microwave?

    Going to have to put the microwave food cover in the dishwasher again... 🙃

    Our Russell Hobbs Easi microwave

    All it can do is microwave – you press (or hold) the microwave button, the simple 7 segment LED display jumps up in 30 second jumps, bigger, the bigger time you’re on

    It can defrost apparently but we’ve never done that

    It can stop

    It can go

    That’s it! No stupid useless features (apart from defrost), no clock no timer nothing to do with weights, no modes you have to be in, no mazes of unapparent user interface, just press microwave, get 30 seconds, if that’s not enough press it more, then press start, and if you want to take the thing out, press stop (or just open it and it’ll keep the remainder)

    That’s literally all it does, that’s all it can do and being a flatbed it’s probably more reliable as it has no motor or turntable

    (I didn’t take a photo of the entire microwave oven, it’s like taking a photo of a mirror, the entire front is effectively a mirror)
