Love this microwave!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We replaced our 14 year old Panasonic microwave with the stainless steel model Panasonic microwave. This a very contemporary looking appliance. It is easy to use, and does the job that we want from a microwave. We are very pleased with our purchase!

Excellent functionality and performance
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very easy to use with dial control. Very neat look and fits on countertop well in the footprint of my 2.0 microwave. I previously had a Panasonic inverter so the power and functionality I was already familiar with. Great buy for size, power., and finish.

Great modern microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was to replace my broken 1.1 cu ft microwave which finally gave out after 12 years. I've seen and read positive reviews about Panasonic microwaves, especially regarding the ones that had inverter technology. This thing is larger than I expected. The smart reheat and smart defrost are amazing options that take the guesswork out of figuring out times and such. The dial is easy to use as well as the 'quick minute' button. The display is clear and easy to read. The finish looks great but expect to wipe it down often as it is a fingerprint magnet. I would definitely recommend this specific model to friends and family.

Reasonably priced.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We like everything about it. It's large enough for everything we need to cook and it is quiet. It also looks good. We're having to get used to the controls since they have different features (like a rotating Time Set know vs. a Key Pad) than our old unit.

Great microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this microwave for our kitchen remodel a couple of months ago, and so far it's been great! Does what a microwave is supposed to do very well, and love the simple user interface. SO much better than most microwaves I've used. The automated settings seem to work well. though I've honestly not used them much, as I'm more of a dial in the power and time manually kind of user. For that, this is greatness; just push the power button until you get the power level you want, then turn the know to dial in the time. Easy Peasy! My wife does swear by the "sensor reheat" function, and the kids haven't ruined anything in it yet, so all is good! Time will tell how well it lasts, but so far, highly recommended!

nice & big
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a microwave big enuf for square dishes to rotate, and being deep-dish, to get the food hot in the centers so I wouldn't have to mix my food up---this unit far exceeds my expectations, and I have to re-learn settings I was using with the old mw because this cooks & heats with minimal time...getting used to the dial to set time is new, would've just appreciated numbers key-pad instead...bought this as an 'open box' and saved a little($30), but this was stainless---would have preferred just white or black to hide fingerprints----but it looks snazzy when its cleaned up nice...overall, VERY happy for purchase, recommend highly.

Nice Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This unit is easy to use and quite powerful. It heats very evenly and the inverter plus turntable lets you use less power. Very pleased just wish there was better detail and availability of the trim kits so we could have a more polished look

Large - easy and user friendly
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Large microwave , easy knob for timing adjustment with an under counter install, having a knob makes for quick adjustments . It is a also more USABLE for a elderly person who may find the busy interface of other more modern looking units

Very similar to our old Panasonic Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't like rating electronics, appliances and the like, right after I purchase them. Doing so does not make for an accurate rating. If asked to review a year from now, that review would be worth noting. So.... so far in my less than 1 month ownership, I like the knob to turn up or down the time you want something to cook for. That is really nice instead of pressing keys for cook time. Well lit, large, which is what I was looking for. And, Panasonic has done a darn good job at making quality microwaves.

Powerful and good size
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Large size, good fit with the rest of our appliances, and its power, easy settings, has been a treat given the frequent use we subject it to. At this early stage we are very happy with this purchase.

Powerful and quiet
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the second Panisonic microwave with inverter technology that I have purchased. I’m impressed with the evenness of the heating and it is quieter compared to other microwaves I’ve used. Oh and with 1200 watts it’s fast.

Happy with purchase
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pleased with the heating performance of this Panasonic 2.2 cu microwave oven. We like the ability to set the exact cooking time (to the seconds) with the dial. We found it's very powerful and the popcorn setting been to be terminated early to prevent burning.

So far its awesome!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced a previous, and slightly smaller Panasonic, that only lasted 3 years. The reviews here and online convinced me to give the Panasonic line, another chance. This one is also more feature rich, so that's a nice plus. With the amount of use we put through one of these, I do expect at least 5 years of life. But, even after 5 years, it should, still, have plenty of life in it. We'll see! One other note: Its much more powerful, and faster, than what food packaging is expecting... if the package says x number of mins, it will way over cook if you don't reduce that time by at least 80% - to me, that's a plus; less time waiting...

Great mountain
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At first I was leery about this microwave because it is an older model, but once I started using it I was surprised. Its huge and it can thaw out food in half the time as my old microwave, and it heats evenly.I now understand why it got such good reviews! Its incredible! I would definitely recommend.
