Mine makes a little music sound, and when I hit the “stop” button it makes a different music sound. If I hit it at just the right time, it makes a nice melody by combining both sounds. I recreated a similar sounding one to it here.
beepbox.co project with the following melody:
A ........ ####.... ........ ........ Ab........ ........ ........ ........ G ........ ........ ........ ........ F#........ ....#### ........ ........ F ........ ........ ........ ........ E ........ ........ ........ ........ Eb........ ........ ........ ........ D ....#### ........ ........ ........ Db........ ........ ........ ........ C ........ ........ ........ ........ B ........ ........ ........ ........ Bb........ ........ ........ ........ A ####.... ........ ........ ........No. But my wife does and doesn’t reset the display so it’ll just show 3 rather than the time.
Yeah. My microwave makes five beeps whenever the timer runs out, regardless if I open the door or not.
In terms of appliance beeping aggravation, I’ve yet to have one that tops an old slow cooker I had. When you turned it on, it just had a beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep that lasted for multiple seconds and made me want to throw it out the window every time I had to use it. It was like a goddamn siren alerting the whole apartment complex to the possibility of pot roast in 4-8 hours.
I stop it on the start of the beep.
Ofc. Otherwise it beeps.
Turn off the beeps, it’s the only way
I tried every combo and magic trick I could find and mine will not. Sadge.
Never had one, used one maybe 3 times in my life. I’ve let them run through until I heard the beep, then came over to check. Is that’s not how it works?
No, I don’t get that urge. Ours takes awhile to get things where I like it. If I make 3 cups of rice I leave it in there for 17 minutes 😬
Yes. Even tho. You should let an item sit and continue to cook after the wave is done. I just grab it like a Neanderthal.

🙂↕️👉 Stopping the microwave after 29 seconds because its a prime number
Of course! I’m not going to let a fucking oven tell me when my food is ready. Fuck you, Skynet, this is how the rebellion against the machines starts!
i can set my microwave to not make any beeps by holding the 8 button down for a few seconds.
Quiet microwave gang. Took a while to find the instructions and can only be done when it’s first plugged in on mine.
I feel like I am the opposite. If I set it to a specific time, then I feel I have committed to letting the food cook for that entire time and will not stop it early even if I think it looks like it’s done already.
You can set it for an extra second so you don’t feel bad about stopping it “early”
No, see, then I will have just committed to cooking it 1 second longer. I told the machine how long to cook it. I can’t be caught lying to my microwave or oven.
I think I took the “boy who cried wolf” story a little too seriously…
I have kids that I enjoy keeping asleep. There is no reason for that fucking beep to ever occur.
That’s what I thought but my wife needs it or she constantly forgets warm beverages in the microwave.
Nominating for best of out-of-context comments.
Is that really out of context? Maybe it’s also because I am a parent, but that was my immediate reaction to the post. Death to all things that beep loudly!!!
No, your comment was perfectly in context. I was nominating it as a perfect addition to an all time greatest list of post that, out of context, are amazing.
Many models have the option to turn off the beeps
But why won’t the noise turn off as soon as you open the door?
It depends on how annoying a noise it will make if allowed to finish. I find it odd that the option to disable the beep on completion isn’t common. There’s rarely any urgency to remove what I just heated.
Really? First thing I do after a power outage is turn off the sound on the microwave. I’m not putting stuff in for hours, I’ve not forgotten about it. If I’m not taking it out of the microwave immediately it’s because I’m busy. Settle down, machine.
I’m embarrassed that I’ve never even thought of attempting this… Do all microwaves have that option?
No they do not, unfuckingfortunatly
