A manufacturer should make one that auto clears after say 5 minutes. Have an option to not auto clear for the 0.1% of people who might want it to keep the remaining time for eternity.
One of the best responses so far. I want to be able to glance at my microwave and see the time, not how many seconds were left from the last thing you microwaved.
luckily I just have a cheap emerson that lets me do whatever I want to set the time so that’s not an issue.
My sister though… Has one of those ‘old’ microwaves that sits there all arrogantly and ignores you unless you hit clear AND use the set time button just to be able to begin setting a cook time. It’s very annoying and the habit of having a lazier microwave always trips me up when I’m forced to use her more pedantic older microwave
When you’re done with the microwave and took your food out early to avoid the alarm, clear the fucking time that’s remaining.

Mine auto clears, but with a loud beeep 😑
A reminder of your failure to clear the time. Clever feedback loop.
Yeah but then it beeps. Why not just allow the chaos. It’s not like you look at the time on your microwave much anyway
So when I need to use the microwave, I have to first clear your time and then put in mine? It’s not just about the clock.

Trivial? Sure, but annoying as fuck.
