    I purchased this microwave for Christmas 2018. It worked great for 2 years. Today when I used it it started buzzing. I looked inside and saw an orange glow and it was smoking. I tried cleaning it really well, then tried again and the same thing happened. It was a bit scary, but nothing bad ultimately happened. I have no idea what is going on,but it is hard to trust it now.

    A Christmas gift to my sister in law, who only had it for 11 months. Now have to hunt down if it was under warranty still. Things happen but its still a little upsetting.

    This is the worst microwave I have ever owned. It is extremely loud and shuts off in the middle of warming. I have yet to have a hot meal from it. I have reverted to cooking everything on the stove like in the 1970's.

    The first unit I purchased heated so unevenly that I returned it as defective and ordered another one. The second unit also heats unevenly but differently. I don't know if I can return the second one as I have disposed of the packaging. Will discuss with Best Buy.

      We are sorry to hear that your experience did not match your expectations. To improve your experience, we recommend ensuring the turntable is rotating properly and not obstructed. A functioning turntable helps distribute heat evenly. Pause cooking halfway through to stir or rotate the food. This helps even out the heating process. Spread the food out in a thin, even layer rather than piling it up. This allows the microwave energy to penetrate and heat the food more uniformly. -M Panasonic

    Bought this microwave to replace a GE that had lasted 20 years. No issue so far but I wish it would continuously beep to remind you that something has finished heating.

    Great microwave. Smaller inside than my other,but shorter warming time makes up for size. It really gets food warmed in a short time and through out with the reheat sensor!!

    I was sad when my old microwave died. I didn't think that I would find another that would work as well or look as nice. At Best Buy, I stumbled upon the Panasonic Cyclonic Wave. It is fantastic! The sensor feature heats food to perfection. So happy with this purchase!

    I replaced a 1.6cu GE with this. This microwave js very long in depth but height is wayyy too less. On top of it, the tray wheels are massive and tray is lifted half inch from base. It just felt too small due to height restriction. This would be a great microwave if it was taller and tray was lush with microwave entrance. I had to replace it with LG which has way better form factor.

    This is a junk product from Panasonic. H98 code kept appearing after 1 year. It still look like brand new but can't use it. I have to look for the solution on youtube to reset this error code. too much hassle but still doing everytime using it. sometime it works after reset sometime the reset doesn't do anything. Junk!
