our microwave has a dial but because this is the 21st century it's a rotary encoder not a physical clockwork timer dial. that's great for accurate timing, but also it's a very cheap rotary encoder and has become very temperamental after only a few years regular use.

I have relatives who would love something like this that was actually reliable because modern microwave controls are hell for rheumatoid arthritis, but the manufacturer seems to have given up on it rather than fix it
