The microwave oven we had in the 80's when I was a kid had two knobs, and a single button.
Knob 1: A rotary timer. Twist it so the little arrow points at the time to cook (+/- 30 seconds)
Knob 2: Nobody knows. This was some sort of a "mode" selector that wasn't touched in eight years as far as I remember.
Button: More similar to a space bar on a mechanical keyboard - push to start cooking.
The door was just a simple "pull to open", there was no "eject" button to open the door.
When it was done cooking, there was a single "ding".

- raisedbyninjas 3y agoSome microwave ovens without an open button develop arcing problems when users open the door while power is on.
