Our new microwave has that and the buttons 1-6 will start that number of minutes immediately. We were pretty excited about it because our old microwave didn’t even have the 30sec button.

I like the 30 second button. I loathe the 1-6 minute buttons. Time entry club forever!

I have learned that is what the “cook time” button is for.

I wish that function only worked on 1-3. I hate that I have to push the cook time first if I want 45 seconds. Do I ever put something in for 4 minutes straight? Absolutely not. If something needs that long to heat up, it probably needs to be on a lower power/defrost, or it's a thick soup that is 2 minutes, stir, then 1 minute increments until just right.

what brand is that?

good to acknowledge when companies actually improve products rather than just enshittifying them

Both microwaves are GEs. The first was from 2007 and came with our house in 2015. It still worked when we left it in that house earlier this year so despite not having the 30sec button we didn’t really have any complaints about it.
