Super useful if the food package tells you what wattage the time is meant for. I have a 1300 watt microwave. Most things are designed for an 1100 watt microwave. I cook them at full power to their specified times, it burns. I set the power to 85%, it's perfect.
Look! Look, everyone! We got one here who reads manuals!
Smh what about automatics?
Hurts my brain the way those shove words in against my will.
I usually use 30-50% power when I have to use a microwave at work to reheat leftovers
Takes longer but it comes out more evenly heated and less rubbery.
I usually use 100% when I'm cooking my fish and onion work casseroles though.
