Not in any microwave I've seen. Mine always goes anticlockwise (as do
most others I've seen).

Sharp microwaves go both ways oh er misses


So does our Panasonic. First button push, it goes clock wise, start it
again and it goes anti clockwise. Never noticed if it changed direct on
one run though. I'm usually tending to other cook at that time.
