the s is ilent 69 Posted December 14, 2018 The reheat function works well. Â Throw in leftovers, hit one button and thru some kind of magic the MW determines how much time is required to heat a specific amount of food. Â Popcorn function takes out the guesswork. Â I use defrost at 75% weight to avoid cooking or hotspots in meat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I only heat up stuff in 30 second intervals. Â The numbers on mine run for the number of minutes - e.g., press 2 and it runs for 2 minutes. This feature along with the 30 second button comprise 99+% of my microwave usage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â Interesting... my GE Profile doesn't have such a button, and my past experience has been that microwaving pizza makes it a soggy mess. I reheat pizza in an Oster toaster oven we have, for crisp crusty goodness. Â Does your crust come out OK from the microwave button? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â It does come out okay, good temp, not soggy at all in 1:40 seconds. I've had other microwaves where it would make the crust all soggy, but this one doesn't. I used to reheat in the oven til I got this Microwave, I'll check out the brand when I get home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

posty 2,315 Posted December 14, 2018 My 1 through 6 buttons can be used to auto quick start the microwave... If I want four minutes, I just hit the "4" button... Then in I want to bump it up 30 seconds, I hit the "Add 30 Sec" button... Â Auto defrost is pretty good... The popcorn button is good as well, but I never let that finish as it is usually done popping with about 5-10 seconds left... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
