It seems like I saw a couple bottom end underpowered microwaves that are still mechanical, but most here are electronic. Certainly any with useful power (1100-1200w@120v) are electronic. Anything larger that on a single plate are electronic. I don’t know idpf that means I’m looking at premium products, but almost all here are.
So I have all these buttons I almost never use, all these useless programs. I have to admit the “auto-defrost” program on my current one works really well, but aside from that, I mostly use “+30s”
