    No. I like to stop it right as it hits 0 on the first beep if people are around, but if I’m by myself I wait for it to stop beeping.

    No. But my wife does and doesn’t reset the display so it’ll just show 3 rather than the time.

    Of course! I’m not going to let a fucking oven tell me when my food is ready. Fuck you, Skynet, this is how the rebellion against the machines starts!

    Yeah because the thing beeps as if the house is on fire. I’d rather have it stay silent. And 1-3 seconds is not really enough to have any measurable effect.

    I have kids that I enjoy keeping asleep. There is no reason for that fucking beep to ever occur.

    I time it right so that I can run towards the microwave “in slow motion” and pretend I’m stopping a bomb from going off, 1 second before it blows. My kid loves it. 🤷‍♂️

    I used to stop my microwave a few seconds before it finished, like many others, due to the annoying unstoppable beeps. But then I got this smaller unit that happens to let out the faintest confirmation of doneness that I ever did, or rather almost didn’t, hear. I don’t mind it now.
