how's that been working out in practice? change the ring tone on your washing machine, dryer, and microwave already?

Those are all mechanical. I could if I fancied, but they're inoffensive and I have more pressing calls for my attention.

I didn't even know there were mechanical microwaves.

Never seen the ones with a mechanical egg timer as the time control? Those usually even have a mechanical bell.

Of course the microwave generator itself is not mechanical :)
