It's a winner
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had the new Panasonic NN-SD987SA microwave for a few weeks. I slid it into the existing slot in my cabinets next to the oven with a surge protector. The door seems delicate and it is best not to slam it shut. Everything is fine and I'm satisfied.

Great microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We just got this microwave and couldn't wait to try it after reading the good reviews. It's only been a few days but this appliance is awesome. Setting cooking time is a breeze: just turn the knob to the time you want. And indeed the cooking is even throughout the food. So glad we bought this,

Good size and works well.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit is nearly identical to the one that it is replacing that we had for about 10 years. Cosmetically it is a little different. I like the blue lights on the control panel and the buttons are oval rather than round or square so it looks more up-to-date than the older model. Because the control options were the same and located in the same places as our older model, there was no learning curve in using it for the first time. There may be some improvements in terms of one-touch menu items, but we never use them anyway, so I can't comment on that aspect of this unit. I continue to be impressed by the quality of Panasonic products.

Love it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I moved to a rental and needed better cooking options. This microwave is attractive, easy to use, and versatile. The easy cooking options lets me control warming and avoid "exploding" or over-cooking. The stainless steel exterior cleans easily and is very attractive!

Defininty bigger than most
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I can't give 5 stars because I haven't used all the options lol. I can say it cooks quicker than the old one and more consistent. No cold spots. Definitely big for the counter but worth it.

Meets my needs
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced a microwave that was 20+ years old. I love the new one -- I have a freestanding cabinet that it is on. Its large capacity gives me great flexibility and it's easy to use. So far very satisfied with the quality of cooking and ease of use.

Easy to use, looks great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We loved our old Panasonic Microwave so much that we bought the same model without looking at different brands. It's easy to use and the print window is large and bright so anyone can read it. We do a lot of cooking, not just heating up, so the roomy interior is great.

Very nice microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased this microwave to replace a very similar Panasonic one that we owned. This one has several features that we really liked that some others didn't have. So far it is working great. We're hoping it will work well for many years to come.

Great Micro for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought it as a gift for my parents and they just love it. It looks good in their kitchen and works great. There are no issues with this micro so far and they like the Stainless which blends in with the rest of their appliances. I would buy this Micro again.

Cooks and defrosts great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave cooks perfectly! I also like the inverter defrost. My food does not start to cook like my last microwave. Only reason not a five is because you can barely hear the timer (clock timer for non microwave use) and you can't use the timer if the microwave is in use.

Great and Easy to Use
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one of the few microwaves that uses a dial for data entry and it’s a lot easier than a keypad! The controls are simple and intuitive and the unit is large enough to handle most microwaving needs!

Good upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced a 1200w GE microwave with this. Cuts heating time down by half. Very powerful compared to the GE. Only issue is the stupid trim kit costs the same as the microwave.

Great microwave!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this oven to replace one that was bought in 2006. This Panasonic is 1100 watts so it heats things a bit better than my old one did. Also the sensor reheating and sensor cooking work beautifully. I highly recommend this microwave oven.

Reliable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was purchased to replace a virtually identical Panasonic unit that failed after 9 years of regular use. We especially like the inverter technology, that gives ACTUAL reduced power on lower settings, rather than the "pulsing" power used by other brands. Our only dissatisfaction is in the fact that the spring on the door release button is so stiff that the unit tends to scoot rearward on the cart, rather than releasing the door. It becomes necessary to hold the microwave with one hand, while pushing the door release with the other hand. Minor, but somewhat of a nuisance.
