Lovely Compact Design – We have this in our van and its near perfect fr us. It is small in stature but cooks as well as any of its larger brothers. Its 950 watts but more importantly it is an inverter so the cooking and defrosting is exceptionally even throughout. The button lay out is nice and cleat and the cabinet is solidly constructed. I hope to use this for many years to come.  Show details ·  1

Good,basic functionality – One of my friend gifted me this microwave. I like how easy its to use and warms up nicely. Just need to be used to the center knob thingy but otherwise nice. Just one tiny issue it the stainless exterior gets dirty and hard to clean. Just make sure to wipe up as you good. Good gift, happy  Show details

Rubbish – We brought the bigger panasonic microwave & had nothing but trouble with it, had to assume it was faulty & took it back & got this one instead. Big mistake. This one has same issues. You can cook the same item 10 times on the exact same settings & get anything from still frozen to burnt, results are completely random. This microwave burned holes… Read more

through 3 heat bags. It "cools" sometimes after just 10 seconds of cooking. I regret ever buying it & will never buy panasonic again. I feel really ripped off as I wasn't able to return it even though it's clearly faulty as the original one was. If masters hadn't closed down & I would have returned this piece of junk. $259 down the drain!

Shockingly Bad in Every Way – Always had Panasonic microwaves since our first wedding gift was beaut. This one's a surprise. Almost too many problems to list! * very noisy and fan runs for long time after use. Can't listen to music or tv, and have to leave room to use telephone. * leaks radiation so badly that it causes severe radio interference and kills the internet… Read more

wi-fi all over the house.

* strange complex controls. Visitors unable to use it at all. Even family can't fathom most functions after 2 years.

* can only be set to cook in 10-second intervals. So a 5-secind 'ding' to soften some hard chocolate or icecream has to be done manualy by opening the door halfway through.

* takes approx TWICE as long to cook as any other microwave we've ever used (including our daughter's thirty dollar cheapie from the Warehouse)

* only cooks the outside. Items are too hot to pick up but are freezing cold in the middle.

* door catches keep stiffening-up unless greased frequently. Door rebounds instead of clicking shut.

* And yes, it ceratainly is a great-looking microwave. The stainless steel finish matches our kitchen beautifully. A pity that it works so very, very badly. After 35 years this will be our last Panasonic.

Great microwave. Does the job – Gets the job done! Heaps of different options to cooking and defrosting. Easy turning dial to select how long you want to hear for. Pretty cheap considering how much microwaves can be.. big size too. This microwave heats my food evenly, what a great machine. Black I’m colour, looks slick in the kitchen.  Show details

Perfect So Far – So far I love it. It was packaged well and arrived in perfect condition. I love the flexibility that all the different cook settings provide but I have to include this disclaimer; it replaced a 15-year-old microwave that had 1 mechanical dial as the only control. A possible insignificant fact is the door closure and latch mechanism seems much more secure than my old one ever was.  Show details ·  1

Very easy to use – I purchased this unit 4 years ago and have had no problems whatsoever. In the past I have found that microwaves do not last very long so very happy with this one. I picked it because it has a timer and the noise it makes at the end is loud. I use this a lot for all sorts of things. Of course it does all the other things its supposed to. The many… Read more ·  1

heat settings are great and it boils a cup of water in 2 minutes. I have made jam in it. It does everything I need and still looks like new.

Excellent microwave!! – We have been using this microwave for quite long time and the condition and quality remain the same as it was brand new. All functions are well thought and well designed. The time to heat up and defrost seem to be quicker than other brands. Cannot be happier, it's really good. Very easy to operate, even for kids. Highly recommend it.  Show details

The Best for its Price – This really is an amazing microwave for the price. Firstly, I wouldn't choose a microwave that wasn't an inverter as the are much more gentle & precise than regular microwaves. Also, it looks great. The price is amazing for such a great package. Panasonic is a good brand, too. I seriously wouldn't consider any other!  Show details

Powerful for its size – Love the micro power function that this microwave has. Heats up my child's milk in under 20 seconds. The preset food functions and settings are also really handy when cooking different types of dishes. Size of the microwave is quite compact, only drawback is that it can be slightly loud when running.  Show details

very good – Well design microwave with all required settings and smooth run. It is comfortable and,practical, no noise. If it installed as required by the manual, I believe, it will work over the warranty time for quite long time. I can not give you any more detailed information as i bought it recently.  Show details

Great little machine – It looks good. Is compact but fits all my plates. It works with little fuss, and although the first unit I had was faulty and would cut off mid microwaving, the replacement has performed without hiccups. Have had it for around 4-5 years now. The plastic coating on the button to pop the door open has just started peeling, but it's a minor cosmetic issue. Highly recommended and adorable microwave from a reputable brand.  Show details

Solid and reliable and good price – I always buy Panasonic and this new microwave doesn't dissapoint. Small in size but big on output and features with easy to use buttons even the kids can use it. Its quiet and has different heat seatings and defrosting is a breeze. Good for older folks too who want simple features and reliability!  Show details

Quality was very good – I've purchased this back early last year. Very user-friendly and easy to use. The controls were too complicated and had a nice simplistic look to it. Love the dial to add the time (unlike the button with my old microwave). Very compact and great quality for the price I've paid.  Show details

Standard and great value – The microwave seems safe and sturdy to use. It doesn't produce too much noise so is good for those late night snacks. It is a very standard size and has all the options that you expect including power options (such as for defrosting). The plate is sturdy and the interior is easy to clean.  Show details

Very good – In fairness, I've been a fan of the inverter range since it was introduced, as I find it gives a more even cooking. The Inverter system is the best if you are using those poached egg or bacon microwave trays (otherwise they cook unevenly.) They are easy to operate and not too noisy. That being said, I don't think they are as sturdy as they used to be, but still not fragile.  Show details

Great! – This microwave is exactly what I was looking to buy. It is a good size and well built. It is not loud at all and the door opens evenly. The food is warmed evenly and does not burn on sides or super heat some sections, while others are still uncooked.  Show details

Love it – Our old micro wave died a slow death. So we had a little time to research which microwave we wanted and how much we could actually afford. I am quite happy with our choice. It works just fine. Is quiet. Has all the features you could want in a microwave. Very happy with it!  Show details

little beauty – Only use microwave for heating and defrosting. Following the dlrection in the manual makes using the settings easy to use.. microwave is easy to clean just a wipe down with a warm cloth after use is that is needed. Of all the microwaves I have had over the years, this is the quiestest. One of my best buys.  Show details

Hopefully gonna last longer – We bought this microwave in a beginning of this year, old microwave did not live long. We were a bit pessimistic about new one, price was pretty cheap.

even for our kids. So far that microwave much better then our old one. Hopefully gonna last longer and still will be great after one more year.

Quality at a good price – Seems to cook things faster and more evenly than previous models I've owned. Relatively quiet and user-friendly with cool pop-out rotary timer dial. Only has one series of beeps once food is cooked - which is excellent. Doesn't repeat the beeps! Only complaint is that there is no quick start. Other models you can just press the start button and it will cook on high for a minute. This one doesn't have that option.  Show details

Microwave goodbye – Pleasing results everytime. Heats good evenly and thoroughly. No cold spots in the middle here. Button nicely laid out, handy easy to use clearly labelled feature instrument panel. The mI crowbar itself has an low level of noise emitting from the unit during regular and daily use. Built wilt nice design.  Show details

Great product – I loved this microwave I usually have purchased the smaller "cheaper" ones and they always seemed fine but having a fantastic one like this you definitely notice the difference in cook and quality of the product it's also easier to clean ten other brands that I had tried definitely a bit thumbs up from me!  Show details

Big but fast – This microwave is bigger than expected, however, it heats my vegetables much faster than my old microwave. Its very easy to clean, its about as loud as most microwaves can be. It looks sleek, just remember when you are cleaning it water based products will leave streak marks on the outside. So I use a multipurpose first on the outside then polish with orange oil  Show details

This is great – This machine is larger than I originally thought it would be but apart from squeezing it into a small kitchen I'm so very glad that I'vebought it. In lots of ways it has replaced my old oven - I cant praise it highly enough. Having the flatbed with no turntable means even full sized baking dishes will fit in it, so you don't need to heat up a large underbench oven to do a roast or a slice.  Show details

Basic, but good – This microwave is just what we were wanting, nothing too complicated and easy to use. Just the right size for where we wanted to put it. It looks smart and clean and is of course easy to clean. Works well and has been very reliable. We are very happy with it.  Show details
