Design peeve of the day
Most microwaves sit on kitchen counters, putting them well-below eye-level for many (most, I think) people.
The displays on most modern (2 years or newer? I pulled that number of of the air) microwaves are not readable when you're standing in front of them within arm's length... perhaps at anything more than 40 degrees?
I've spent almost as much time bending over to look at the displays on microwaves than I have cooking in them, I think.
It's probably an LCD failure, compared to the previous use of LEDs.
