Let's talk about microwaves.
What are the most reliable brands and models lately?
I've been researching and it's really difficult to find anything that isn't Chinese crap. Even once mighty Japanese manufacturers like Sharp (now owned by Foxconn) have shifted their manufacturing there and their quality took a dive. Also, many models come with unreliable touch panels instead of mechanical controls.

Good microwaves: the ones with a dial for the power and a dial for the time.
Bad microwaves: the ones with a dozen fucking buttons and a numpad and an army of settings and programs.
I have no idea how anyone uses a microwave and doesn't immediately see that it sucks all taste out of food immediately.
>put a sandwich in
>it comes out a tasteless wet pile of misfortune
>put a soup in
>soup loses all aroma and now tastes like 7 days old soup
>put spaghetti in to heat them
>they come out as brittle plastic tasting like metal
You people and your microwaves. I don't understand this shit. Must be an American thing. I'll take a pan and a stove any day over this tasteless crap producing device
Even the ones with mechanical controls are mostly Chinese thrash that barely lasts.
From what I've read, currently pretty much all microwaves are manufactured by a couple of huge companies in China and they all have reliability issues. Even brands like Panasonic and others that used to be reliable can no longer be generally trusted now.
You've got to get one with a rotating carousel inside for even cooking. I will never go back.
It's fun to throw chipbags or steel wool inside and see:
it shrink, provide a light show and burn up.
OR pop a lamp inside and watch it light up, show many colours and then it goes out with a bang, often TEN TIMES LOUDER than you would think. Just don't hold a glass cup of hot beverage or it may go flying.
FUCK inverters. The magnetron burns out quicker.
They're mostly shit now, most lack decent venting so moisture condenses underneath the turntable and rusts the fuck out of everything.
Do silent microwaves exist? I always run across the kitchen like a retard to manually stop it so i don't have to hear the beeping.
I leave the door open all the time
