Had to purchase a replacement microwave for our lunch room at work. Have limited counter space. We had a Panasonic before that lasted several years. Good fit and finish. Great value on sale!

I've had a Panasonic branded microwave for the last 20 years. My last one was 2cuft so this one was a downsize, but I thought we would save some counter space by selecting this model. Seems to be holding up to expectation over this last month that I've had it. I knocked off a star because 1) the feet are hard plastic so it slides around on the counter top. I can't think of a counter top material it wouldn't slide around on. I'm sure it can be remedied easily but just haven't tried anything yet. 2nd, the power supply on startup seems a bit loud. My previous microwaves had a consistent noise level when running; but this one has a louder transformer like hum for the first 2 seconds. No big deal. Overall, I'm satisfied with the purchase.

Stylish and a good size for the kitchen counter. Easy to operate. Has good ratings and the price is reasonable. Had it for three weeks and no problems. Heats food evenly.

I had a 30+ year old Kenmore Microwave that I was very used to. This one is more powerful, bigger, and has more options. Really like the programmed reheat feature.

This Panasonic Microwave is 1.3 Cu ft but is fairly large although it says mid size in its description. It is very user friendly to set up and operate. This Microwave is powerful enough to heat food items faster.

Good unit, does everything it's suppose to. We were concerned with putting a microwave oven on the counter, (our range is in an island) but this has worked out well. It's quiet, mid-sized and powerful.

I have had this micro for a year now, and it is great. I would recommend this to anyone. I have never had a sensor feature microwave and I assume it operates on some sort of heat or moisture sensor to know when the food is done and so far it has worked without a problem with the settings provided. It is easy to clean, which is a huge plus and is a good size but does not take up a ton of room on the counter of which we already had little space. For a family of 3, this is more than efficient.

I really liked the design of this Microwave as it has a really nice and good quality exterior finish and easy to clean too as well as the inside. Very easy and straight forward to operate and works very well. At the same time for the Size and Design the price counts up for the positive experience as well! One downside as it lost a Star is the fact that it does not light up on the inside if the door is open only when the microwave is being operated, I usually find that handy which is odd as this is my 1st microwave without that feature. Otherwise a Great Buy!

Reviewed a bunch of microwaves and this one seemed to fit the bill for a mid size microwave. A lot of the reviews did mention that there isn't a light that goes on when you open the door, only while it's operating, this is absolutely true. I do find this annoying as well but I bought the microwave knowing in advance that this was the case so it really doesn't bother me that much. I feel it's pretty sturdy and not as flimsy as a lot of the other microwaves I've seen out there. Overall I feel that the microwave was a good purchase.

The microwave cooks quickly and evenly, and the only complaint I have is that the door opening button and the buttons to set the cooking time take enough force to push that the microwave will slide backwards on the counter.

Nice power, with 1,100 watts. Not as many convenience buttons as my previous Kenmore. Light doesn't go on when you open door.
