I’ve got a Whirlpool Max. Simple design. Buttons – Start, Stop, Power, Steam, Defrost and Memo. Minor buttons to add time/weight or set clock. The Memo is the one that I don’t use, but apparently you can make it remember your favourite setting. But there are no settings really to remember.
Something on full for a few minutes, just press start a few times to get to the time you want. That’s it. Used plenty of microwaves where there are three or four buttons you’ve got to press to set a time, power and then start.
Defrost – forget dozens of settings for different types of food. Just hit defrost button, set weight, press start. Doesn’t matter what the food is. Same goes for steam (steamable foods obviously).
Sadly the Max seems to be discontinued on their web site.
