If your microwave is not lined with stainless steel (and
maybe regardlessly), always leave the door ajar for a few
minutes to allow the steam and condensation to ventilate out.

Make a habit of wiping the inside after every serious usage.

I dont do anything like that and use it almost every day,
usually with steam being produced and have done that
for 50 years now. And its not stainless steel either.

Were Microwave ovens available to the domestic market in 1970 though ?.

Yep.

I only remember them appearing in the 1980's.

I know I got the date right because thats when
I moved into the partly built house that I built myself
and got a microwave when I did. Its still going fine.

When did other people buy their first one ? (1986 for me).
