Customer Ratings & Reviews

My Microwave went out and I had to get another one the same day. Found this one in the pricerange that I wanted (around $100) and in the color that I wanted (Stainless Steel) I absolutely love it. It is easy to use, food heats up quickly and it is easy to clean.

I purchased this microwave to replace my old one in which the key pad buttons stopped working. My old microwave had low wattage and took forever to reheat food. So I wanted a new one with high wattage. This microwave heats my food quickly and evenly. It has different features of which I didn't previously have. I love this new microwave. The only drawback is its size. It wouldn't fit into my microwave spot, although none of the high wattage ovens would. So I had to rearrange my counter for the microwave to fit. Thus, I have less counter space to work with, but a new microwave that gets the job done. I just have to learn how to use the varied features and not overcook my food with this powerful oven.

This is a good microwave. It is pretty quiet and does the job. I don't love the display though and I wish the light turned on when you opened the door, but besides that - it heats the food, so that is the most important thing.

A good, somewhat basic microwave, not too big - not too small, just enough features. My only complaint is there is no light inside, otherwise it is perfect for my needs.

Bought this unit to replace a Panasonic Microwave purchased in 1990. Read plenty of reviews for various brands before making my selection. Was concerned about some of the negative reviews but made the decision to purchase it anyway. Scanned other stores for best price. This model was $20 less at Walmart. Best Buy happily matched their price. We have been using the unit since May 20, 2015. It has functioned without issue. I wish the inside were deeper. The turntable is not as nice/secure as what was in my original unit. Nevertheless, as mentioned it has not deterred the microwave's function. While, I was concerned by the reviews that mentioned "They don't make things like they used too". So far so good with this model. I hope to have it for many years.

This microwave works good, but there are several things I don't like. First, as other reviews have noted, it is noisy. Sometimes it really does sound like an airplane as another person said. Second, the light going on only after the door is closed is inconvenient. I read about it in others' reviews, but didn't think it would bother me. It does. Third, the glass turntable is a little unstable, so each time I wipe it clean, it comes off the center holder and I have to slide it back onto the holder. I've never had this problem with another microwave. Finally, again as others have already said, the display is difficult to read unless the user is directly in front of it and eye level with it. The keypad works well and it cooks well. Now I just have to worry if it will break too soon as some other reviewers noted.

This unit is a great choice of the limited selection of countertop microwaves available these days. Powerful, roomy, carousel and priced well. Fits the kitchen cabinet shelf that is dedicated for a microwave perfectly so installation was a breeze! Worked great right out of the box and is user friendly. Wish is was available in off white.

I have had several panasonic microwaves over the years and this one demonstrates that panasonic still builds quality, value priced microwaves. It looks nice, performs great, and was very well priced. Great value for the money.

Its is a very good microwave, nice features and exactly what we need as a family. only one thing I didn't like is that it has no light inside so u can't see what u are heating up

Checked Consumer Reports for various microwave ovens, and this one was highly rated. Clean, sleek lines for stainless steel model. Cooks quickly, quietly, with many special button options. Very pleased with it's performance.

This was a gift. The people I bought it for needed a smaller microwave oven for their Apartment countertop. It has the features they want and they are happy with it. It also matches the other appliances in their kitchen.

I chose this microwave for its stainless steel exterior and for the inverter technology that adjusts the power level for lower settings rather than cycling full power on and off. It looks nice on the counter now, and it can be built in later when I remodel the kitchen. It works well for single-serve old-fashioned oatmeal on a medium setting. The sensor cook function resulted in perfect baked potatoes, and the inverter turbo defrost function works well with frozen individual chicken breast. Oven also cooks prepackaged frozen meals nicely when package directions are followed for time and power levels. I'm still exploring the options and features, but so far the only one that didn't work so well was the sensor-cook setting for softening butter - that resulted in a sort-of soft stick of butter with a melted hole in the middle.Only negative is that it is much noisier in operation than the ancient microwave it replaced.

Easy to use. Nice looking. Cooks evenly and quickly. Quiet operation. Food actually seems to taste better from this compared to the old microwave I replaced.

Wanted to match up the look of all my kitchen appliances. Good deal, good product with nice features. Happy with the purchase. *S/n: light doesn't come on once the door opens

This is the perfect size for us and it is very easy to use. I read the reviews on it and found it at Best Buy at a good price.

I have used this microwave for a month now. It heats food quicker than my old one, looks good, and is easy to use. For the money it is a great microwave.

I really like my microwave, it is stainless steel, easy to operate and cooks quickly. It is just the right size for our kitchen and it cooks everything we need. Great deal for the money. Great buy.

So far (about 2 mos.) this microwave has been fine. Others here and elsewhere have commented about the fact that the inside light is only on while the microwave is operating. It is annoying. It makes it more difficult to clean properly. I am fastidious about not letting food get baked into the cavity finish. Now I need a flashlight to find and clean the spots. Can't say anything about longevity yet, but I don't have particularly high hopes. It seems that microwave ovens have almost become disposable.

Read the reviews and this sounded like a good microwave. Didn't think the fact that the interior light only comes on when running, not when opening the door to stir or check on food would be a problem but do find it annoying. Don't understand why Panasonic did this - never had a microwave that didn't have a light when the door opened. Also didn't have quite as many helpful on-screen or inside the door opening cooking times for common foods as my previous one but other than that it runs as a microwave should and is nice looking. Was happy that Best Buy price matched it for us when we asked if they would do so.

Love the look. Also the power is very good. Heats up food fast and much more uniformly than my previous microwave. Little louder than my previous microwave but I am very happy with the purchase.
