Looking for a simple one touch microwave with 5 minute setting. Any ideas?

Hi, I am trying to find a microwave for my mum. She has dementia but is able to follow simple processes with the microwave. She only reheats frozen meals and we would like her to be able to push one button then the start button. Does anyone know of a microwave that has either a preset function at 5 minutes (perhaps for ready meals or potato) or a 5 minute button. We don't think a dial would work for her. Any ideas? Thank you.

You might look for a commercial grade micro wave used in many convenience stores. Some have a very limited setting selection for warming convenience food.

Good of you to try and find microwave that would help your mum. I don't know if this would work, but can you tape off the other settings and just have one available button. I would check with an appliance store and see if the sales rep can find something.
