    Our microwave [Electrolux, in case anyone wants to dig] doesn’t beep until like 5 seconds after finishing, it’s just silent. I think that’s a pretty good feature.

      Never knew how much I needed this, holy shit. Mine beeps when it finishes but also beeps again if I haven’t opened the door in, idk, some amount of time. Which I get why it’s a gesture and sometimes I actually do find it useful but often I’m like “I KNOW, GIMME A MINUTE”

        My parents have one of these, and it drives me nuts when I visit. I understand that feature on something like an oven where it’s still cooking. But the microwave stopped. Nothing’s going to burn. So stop rushing me!

        With two kids, I feel that. 😆 “LET ME WIPE THIS SHITTY TODDLER BOTTOM FIRST, ALRIGHT?!”
