Panasonic NN-CF874B / NN-CF874BQPQ Questions & Answers

Didnt have mine long enough and didnt have the same problem. My glass bottom cracked for no reason and then the door electronics gave up. Not even one year.
Tried talking to Panasonic direct but got absolutely to where. My Panasonic is now on the city dump and I have a Sharp which is fantastic. I will never ever buy anything from Panasonic again and I advise everybody I can to do the same.
Sorry you made a bad choice, but then do did I.

I'm sorry to give you the wrong impression Heather, I'm quite pleased with the oven, and haven't had any problems that a reset hasn't fixed, eventually. I let it have a Bex and a good lie down for 20mins, then restarted it, and now it's working properly again.

Thank you all working now

Thank you for your question: Have no idea about the energy rating. What I can say it does not affect our energy usage too much.

Hello Marie, extras are 3 more letters, but rest assured it will come with all the built in problems. We are a family that all cook and at times to gourmet levels, the convection microwave is central to the process. We are not occasional zappers as many other reviewers are, we rely on a device that is a good all rounder as it is in heavy use every day. This microwave runs in negative figures, even a lot of neutral would be OK, but it is not to be. Forget about back up service from Panasonic, you get poor lip service and a great deal of run around, warranty is made difficult at best and is more of a sales spiel than real world practicality.

What brand/model do you suggest then. Preferably with same door or left hinged. Wanted for caravanning, thanking you.

Hello Susannah, Yes I am very pleased with this oven and would highly recommend if you are a small household.
Its highest temperature is 230 degrees C so if you wanted to go higher than that you would need to think about it.
I haven't had any problems so far and love using it for both microwave and convection cooking - hope this will continue!
All the best. Jill

Hello Suzanna. Did you buy this oven? Are you happy with the quality etc? I too want to buy one but it's so confusing with the negatives & positives.
Thanks

Yes Gloria, I bought this microwave in December based on Jill's review and I LOVE it. I researched and researched and read all the dreadful reviews of all the other brands and I'm thrilled with it and haven't looked back. I have nothing negative to say about it. I found the cheapest price online and Harvey Norman beat it by $10.....I paid $789 for it, not cheap but worth every cent.

Hello Colleen, Yes I am very happy with this oven. It is easy to use and to clean. I love the pull down door. I've now used the oven for baking and am still getting used to the differences in times compared to my previous oven, but it is great. It holds the pre-set temperature for 30 minutes. The smaller size probably wouldn't suit a large family but it is perfect for me. I was happy with the price compared to others. Regards. Jill

I was about to buy this and then saw a bad review has been added. Seems strange that this microwave has had positive comments until March. Are you still happy?
