It's good for warming milk.
And comes handy when one eats what others didn't

yup, mostly used here to warm up leftoevers from the previous day, or for instant meals. Although for some meals other ways of re-heating are preferred. Can't imagine many 'cooking' with it on this side of the pond though...Comment

Microwave ovens are so common as to be a standard part of nearly every kitchen.
Warming leftovers and making popcorn is a lot of their utility, but many frozen meals, entrees and side dishes found in US markets are intended for microwave cooking.
We also find them useful for steaming veggies, baking potatos, thawing frozen meats, making a fast cup of tea or hot water for coffee (or whatever), making meat loaf, warming baby bottles (immersed in a water bath) etc. etc.
Our microwave also has a built-in heating element for browning or grilling. Using both modes on some dishes often gives quite good results.

I don't have a microwave, but then I usually end up having a liquid supper... (and I don't like my beer THAT warm). The majority of people I know have one though.
