My wife learning about inverter microwave models was one of the greatest upgrades in our kitchen when the old microwave went out. The shorter pulses for power reduction is such a game-changer over something that puts burning the fuck out of your food on a temporary pause.

90s at 70%, 45s at 50%, then 45-90s at 30% gives us perfectly hot milk that doesn't boil over and no skin ring that's been baked on the inside of our mugs.

My hotplate recently broke, but I successfully used the microwave yesterday to make a simple syrup without relying on short bursts and frequent stirring breaks.
