We had an older version for years and it was time for it to be replaced. Really like this updated version. Only complaint is the button beeps are loud. They seem extra loud since the microwave is so quiet.

Disappointing and overpriced.

Now that it’s been a while since I purchased this microwave, I can offer an accurate review of the product. The appearance is nice. I haven’t had any mechanical issues. I am, however, completely baffled by the “inverter” technology, as it does not appear to operate any differently than every other microwave I have owned over the past three decades that didn’t have such technology. It is simply not true that it heats food evenly. I still deal with a reheated plate of food being cold in the center and burning hot around the edges. I paid literally three times what I normally would have specifically to avoid this issue. I read hundreds of reviews. I was willing to pay the price for “even heating”. Too bad I wasted my time and money. Don’t believe the hype.
Hi, Dana! Thank you for sharing your honest and detailed review of the microwave. It's valuable to hear about your experience after using it for a while. We are sorry to hear that the inverter technology didn't live up to your expectations regarding even heating. Your feedback is deeply appreciated! -M

Panasonic Inverter Technology is best in class

Our 10 + year-old Panasonic microwave died. We thought we would try the Samsung with the grill. Felt dramatically underpowered so we returned it and went back to Panasonic. The inverter technology is the key--and it is worth buying Panasonic to have it.
I would recommend this to a friend

Just A Bit of a Learning Curve

Pretty pleased with this easy-to-like product, which replaces a 13 year old microwave with a deteriorating gel pad. Puzzled so far only in that food (soups, stew, rice) seems fairly unaffected for minutes at a time, while the dishes become very hot indeed. We have had to use multiple short bursts to get the temps to the eatable level, so in that respect there must be a learning curve. Glass bowls are just the same as ceramic, so it must be the new oven is on a "new wavelength?"

Took some getting accustomed to the control panel but the actual cooking features are great. Seems hotter than the old one of another brand we had been using for several years.

I had done some research and decided that the Panasonic Microwave would best fit my needs and space. Unfortunately, it was out of stock. The staff quickly helped me order it and apply the computer trade-in coupon that I had received earlier. It arrived on time and is working well.

I had a Panasonic microwave prior to this, almost the same model & loved it. I really like the turbo defrost feature for unthawing food.
I like that this model has a light inside & is also easy to clean.

Clumsy controls

The oven works fine.
There are two major issues with the unit:
The door and control panel is a huge grime magnet. Cannot keep it clean.
The controls are clumsy and very unintuitive.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Works good at full power, but not reduced power

At full power this oven works great. But while you can set it at lower power, like 50%, using the instructions in the manual, it never cooks at less than 100%. So, things that call for reduced power are always overcooked and burnt. This is the second Panasonic microwave with this same problem. I would recommend looking at another brand.
