I love everything about this microwave we use it several times a day. Great for defrost especially meat. The inverter technology really works to take meat right out of the freezer and have it ready to cook in just minutes without taking away from the quality of the meat. The popcorn is perfect. Buy one you will love it.
DO NOT BUY THIS MICROWAVE!!!! After, owning it for 4o days, the Metal Interior Framing Panel started sparking and turning black. Manufacturer Warranty is a Joke! Called Panasonic and spoke with a Supervisor who told me that all he could do was give me a reference number and wait for Engineering to call me back. I am a persistent person and when I asked to be transferred to that Department directly he put me on hold...after an hour no one picked up! Glad to see this is how they handle a Consumer Safety Issue. Oh, did I mention my child was standing within a foot of it when it started sparking. Please, Please, Please Do not Purchase this. It NEEDS to be Recalled!
UPDATE: Still working fine but wanted to note that this microwave KILLS my wireless internet connection every single time it is used! SO frustrating, especially with 4 people in the house.
I was very pleased with the way in which the order was handled and delivered to my door. The microwave oven is very efficient--cooks fast and is easy to set. Has many functions. Good product, good shopping experience and the price was competitive.
This is our second Panasonic Microwave oven. I did look at other brands but in the end I went back to Panasonic after the first one died after five years. I figured that was a fair enough length of service for the price. And I have other Panasonic brands ( plasma TV, digital camera, etc) that have performed well. Had this for two months now and we still like the Sensor Cook and Re-heat feature. I can't give it a 5-Star yet based on the fact that the first one broke after 5 years. I'm sure, for the price, there is another brand out there that will perform far beyond 5 years.
We purchased this oven (in stainless trim) a few weeks ago to replace a Sharp microwave that kept blowing up food and catching fire from liquids that would get behind the megatron cover and ignite. The inverter technology is the only way to go with a microwave oven, which allows the power to actually step down rather than simply cycling on and off at 100%, which all other ovens do. So far we've had no food blowing up or cooking over in this oven. If our much older, second Sharp microwave ever dies, it will be replaced with one of these as well.
The End "We live in a rainbow of chaos."
All in all, I think that this is a fantabulous micro, and I give it five stars. Thank you Ebert. You're welcome, Siskel.

I like the feature to turn off beeping. Could use a battery backup for the clock and settings tho (not a complaint).
