A curry or stir fry is ok but that's about it. They either make things soggy and soft or rock hard. i am fussy about my cooking and i like natural heat - preferably gas.

Re: Microwave ovens
I am not that keen on them because they take up too much room on the worktop but l do have one because they are very useful.Mine is a Panasonic Combination microwave and is great for doing jacket potatoes in around 11 minutes or more depending on the size.
I eat the skin on the jacket potato because that’s where the vitamins are.
I use it for making porridge, scrambled eggs, warming meals, refreshing loaves of bread to make them like new.
I use it for making custard, white sauce and sometimes, gravy.
I warm plates in there and defrost some frozen food if l am in a hurry.

Main meals are (mostly) still cooked using the oven and hob but, for everything else, if it saves time and washing up then the microwave is first choice .....
