I have my microwave on silent so I actually prefer to let it finish so I don't need to press a button to clear those few seconds to have a useful clock back

I set mine to vibrate so I feel it in my pocket when it goes off

There's such a thing as a beepless microwave 😮?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Basically every microwave iv seen in the last 25 years has a way to turn off the beeps.

Read the manual for the shit you own. It's wild sometimes how hidden options can be.

WHAT BRAND OF MICROWAVE DO YOU HAVE?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 20 hours ago

LG #1675079‌

For older ones I owned, you can open up the control panel and take out the little speaker puck as an irriversable alternative option.

I specifically looked online before replacing my last one – it didn't just beep, it screamed at the top of its lungs.

Now a happy owner of a silent LG microwave. (You hold two buttons simultaneously to put it in silent mode)
