And if this makes you feel better the microwave is a real electricity sipper. One month's usage never exceeds .6 kWh (less than six cents) for two of us. Far cheaper than an oven, stove top, coffee maker, kuerg or even the toaster.
Thanks for the energy info. I thought maybe I was using it too much.

Whenever I need a hot kitchen wash cloth I get it wet and nuke it. It takes too long and wastes too much water waiting for the sink hot water.

Do you think it is also killing germs?
