    Our First Panasonic lasted 17 years, so when it went out we decided to buy another. At first a little Leary of rotary knob for setting cook time. After using it we find it’s quicker and easier than traditional buttons. Love the oven so far.

    Bought this to install in the kitchen of an accessory apartment in my house. Hoping that with this big a microwave, my tenant can survive without a full size stove (which would cost more and require electrical and gas line work).

    Our old microwave was clearly under-performing (due to age) because this microwave is much more efficient and cooks/heats in way less time. The dial to quickly set seconds/minutes to heat and the quick minute button are nice features. So far we are very pleased with this microwave.

    I bought this microwave for my grandmother who has extreme arthritis in her hands. It is perfect! The knob glides with very little resistance an the large panel to open the door is just big enough for her to use her fist. Not to mention, it works great and looks great in our kitchen. I would buy this again!

    Overall a fine product and does what is expected. That said the dial takes some getting used to and there is some leakage as I notice that when I'm nearby with my laptop when it's operating my wifi signal degrades.

    Love the way it looks, along with the blue backlighting. (We were originally looking for a white unit.) Skeptical of using a turn dial again like years ago, but it's so much faster than punching in the amount of time!

    Getting used to a dial knob for setting the time wasn't as bad as I initially thought. It's a minor nuisance compared to punching in the numbers you actually want. It heats and cooks great though. I've used most all the automatic settings with great results. Highly recommend.
