    Love the size of this microwave. It seems to cook evenly. My only dislike is the dial for setting the time. I much prefer the number pad.

    Inconvenient controls, Unreliable

    The software and control design of this model is unfortunate. For example, to set the clock, the units, and the alert volume you have to unplug the unit. To set cooking times, you have to twirl a knob which counts by 1's up to 10 seconds, by 5's up to 1 minute, then by 10's thereafter. Hitting the right amount of time without going back and forth is nearly impossible. The quick 1-minute button won't add subsequent minutes. It's strictly for 1 minute cook times. How often do you do that? As for reliability, after 32 days mine started shutting off and had to go in for repairs. It's nice looking, and has some good features, but the bad outweighs the good by far, IMHO.

    After our 15 year old Sharp microwave stopped working we started researching a replacement. After deciding on 2-3 finalists (Sharp, Panasonic, LG) we looked at all of them and decided to purchase the Panasonic. We really like the controls - a nice departure from the standard keypad. We also wanted a large interior (2.2cf) with a revolving tray/base - the Panasonic had all the desired features for an excellent price. So far, we're completely satisfied and would highly recommend this microwave.
