Every Microwave oven you have ever seen, and it does not matter what brand it is, was made by one company: Midea.

Midea Group is a Chinese electrical appliance manufacturer, headquartered in China. As of 2018, the firm employs approximately 135,000 people in China and overseas.

It is interesting to note that He Xiangjian, the company's founder started the business in 1968 and the company manufactured bottle lids. Forbes lists him as having 25.2 billion in real net worth.[1]

He also looks like a really nice guy.

The Companies Involved

Listed in the quote below, you will find all of the different kinds of microwaves that Midea produces under different company names:

Quote.png We found evidence that most countertop microwaves sold in the US are manufactured by just one company, Midea. We confirmed with Midea that it makes and sells Toshiba, Comfee, and Black+Decker ovens. We’re also confident that GE, Whirlpool, Sharp, Breville, Insignia, Magic Chef, Hamilton Beach, and others also sell microwaves that were originally built and probably designed in large part by Midea, though all parties that we contacted declined to comment[2] Quote1.png

Microwave Trick

Remember that last time you tried to microwave a can of clam chowder, or some beans...or even some buttered noodles and it started off fine? Then, about 90 seconds into the cook time, it starts spitting like a mofo and tossing burnt pieces of potato all around the interior of your microwave oven. Well there is a reason for it.

Much like a home furnace or a home air conditioning unit, these devices are either on, or off. What that means is that they are giving their full power the entire time they are on. What that also means is that you need to regulate their time, not their power level.

Since a microwave "gives it all" when it is on, using the "defrost" mode is the best way to avoid getting food spattered all over the interior of it. Defrost mode changes the time that your microwave's engine works. On full power, a microwave just stays on, cooking and cooking. On defrost, the magnetron takes a rest, allowing the food to be slowly manipulated rather than nuked.

In this way, you can avoid getting food spattered all over the interior of your nuke box.

Here is a fun image from an instruction book for a 1975 microwave oven:
