Another day, another discarded microwave with a note


As seen on Seventh Street: "Have had this microwave since 2019 [Ed. note: or 2014????]. It works fine. A little rusty on the inside." Photo by Derek Berg

  2. Rust on the inside cavity of a microwave means that the unit may be or probably is leaking radiation.

    To prevent rust from forming in a microwave, leave the door open after every use to allow steam to escape. Or you can unplug the microwave and dry the inside thoroughly with a kitchen towel after every use.
