Customers praise the 1.3 Cu. Ft. Mid-Size Microwave for its size, ease of use, and powerful performance at a reasonable price. Many appreciate its quiet operation and sleek design. However, some users note that the interior light is missing, the door can be difficult to open, and the buttons may require more pressure than expected. A few also mention inconsistencies in heating and limitations with the timer functionality.
We were looking for a new microwave that was easy and simple. I like that it heats up left overs evenly. It’s very powerful yet quiet. It’s also a perfect fit on our countertop. Would recommend this microwave if you’re looking for something to just heat up food. Btw..haven’t tried all the other functions.

I used to have a Sharp microwave that I had purchased about 15 years ago and served me well. It didn’t do a whole lot except warm coffee in the mornings each day and on weekends maybe sometimes or during the week I could reheat food or if there were ever leftovers. It was an 1100 W unit and did well. It finally gave its life willingly and I was in the market to get a replacement after a little looking I found this Panasonic 1100 W unit and it really does well. I think the magnetron in my old one had become old because this one heats things very quickly and also has a sensor controlled for heating certain food items. The internal dimensions on this unit even though it’s identical in Wattage to the old unit and is slightly smaller by only 1 inch and a half but it still works for my needs. My only gripe at this time is that after only five weeks of use the glass turntable plate on the inside has developed two in line shards or cracks that were not there before. Overall I can’t fault this microwave it really is designed well and I’ve known people who had Panasonic’s for years we’ve had no issues at all

Solid basic but with enough features and power to do what we need.
