Bought a microwave with analog dials a little while ago. Surprisingly rare and more expensive, but operating microwave is never easier now compared to inputting numbers on a shitty keypad. Just turn the power level knob and the timer knob and it's on.
Yep, two simple mechanical knobs is easily the best microwave oven interface. Although I do like the fancy Samsung microwave I have that is almost completely silent and lightweight, I think it uses an inverter instead of a chonky HV transformer. I wish I could get a combo of that inverter with a couple of simple knobs for controls.
