My wife prefers the popcorn button and I prefer to mash +30secs. You have to hit the popcorn button three times to get the right setting, but then they're both cooking for two minutes.
She gets there in four presses and it takes me five, but +30s is right next to Start so I'm not sure one is better than the other. I guess she's causing less wear on the button
Don't buy a microwave with just a dial. My last one had an actual keypad of buttons, I could just press 2 + Start and it was wonderful. Nowadays I have to scroll over hells creation to get the right setting, or change the clock, and it's awful
My experience is very different. Sensor-based popcorn button, so I just have to press “popcorn.” I’m not sure I even have to press start.
