    Cooks Excellent / Looks Aethetically Pleasing Too

    My microwave replacement was QUITE a project - i was replacing a built in microwave from GE that was wide / tall, but had REALLY shallow depth - relative to what I could buy to replace it. Bear in mind I was also looking for a microwave with a Trim Kit that would make it look nice - a pretty tall ask. I spent a long time researching and bought several that I hated for one reason or another and returned. They were either WAY to small in the built in hole - or wouldn't fit. Combine that with COVID availability - and it was next to impossible. As luck would have it, i stumbled on this model AND it was available at Best Buy. It is obviously a large 2.2Cu Ft. Model that fit perfectly from a height / width perspective and the Trim Kit was dead on. The challenge of course was the microwave would stick out about 1.5", but nothing else was close and I had to give it a try. I was worried about the aesthetics - but if I could just get it in there who knows! The challenge was the feet had to be far enough back... and i had to cut both the airflow channels and the Trim Kit to make way for the feet. End of the day - it came out great - and I'm extremely happy with the microwave. It looks a TON better than the overly gray picture shown - it's stainless steel and matches my other appliances perfectly. It's cooks about 50% faster / better than my prior microwave - i couldn't be happier really!

    Impressive Overall, But Has Design Problems

    For me, this microwave represents a serious upgrade in several ways - I went from a 1.4 cubic feet machine to this 2.2 cubic feet machine - I went from an 1100 watt machine to this 1250 watt machine - and the outside dimensions and weight seem to have increased exponentially. My old machine could fit snugly and safely on the shelf of a baker's rack in my kitchen - this unit requires more space and got its own table (that's a reality...not a negative - plan for this to take up significant space). Measuring the capacity in cubic feet can be a little confusing - I included a picture below to give you a better understanding of the interior of this machine - that's a Pyrex 9" x 13" baking dish with huge handles sitting inside the microwave (and able to spin freely). And I would have thought that a wattage differential of 150 watts would have been inconsequential but I was wrong - the heating power on this microwave took some getting used to! So it's physically large with a cavernous interior and it's attractive in your kitchen - and newer microwave technologies like this one give more even heating - this unit is being hyped as something that can legitimately assume many conventional oven tasks. And with something this size, I have no doubt that it can rise to the occasion. But operation-wise, the design of this microwave is a disaster: (1) Setting the weight system and beep style can only be done after plugging-in the microwave for the first time (or upon re-plugging....or after a power outage). (2) This microwave has 11 power levels - the 10 that you might expect and a keep-warm level - but to use a level, you have to press a single button repeatedly to get to where you want to be - so to use the keep-warm setting, you have to press the power level button 11 times. Absolutely absurd - this feature alone makes me wonder if the designers have ever owned or used a microwave before. (3) There is a coffee/milk reheating button that feels like a great idea, but the correct selection must be memorized or you must refer (again) to the manual: press once = 1 cup coffee = 1-1, press twice = 2 cups coffee = 1-2 (not 2-1?), press three times = 1 cup milk = 2-1, and press four times = 2 cups milk = 2-2. Really? (4) There is a button assigned to allow you to add a quick 30 seconds to your microwaving time. But that same button functions differently when the microwave is in other modes - in popcorn mode, it only adds 10 seconds - for frozen foods and for sensor-reheating, it adds 20% more time than suggested. I have other design gripes as well, but the four above were the ones I found most immediately infuriating. I don't know if I have ever owned a microwave whose operation was this counterintuitive - it is surely the first microwave where I will keep the instruction manual on top of the appliance for reference. So I love the power and capacity of this microwave, but I am annoyed (almost to the point of being offended) by how dumb some of the design is. Panasonic should have a better design team than this!
