Powerful Microwave

This microwave is powerful.1100 watts. It cooks evenly and the inside of the food in the container is heated throughout-no middle cold spot.The outside is easy to clean. The interior is large, a full size dinner plate fits inside. What I wish it had but doesn't is special buttons for potato's, frozen veggies etc. there is however a list of the codes on the inside bottom.

A nice looking appliance!

The first thing I noticed about this product is that it is aesthetically pleasing. Panel is sleek and easy to read. It is a good size, not too large and not too small. The interior was larger than anticipated. It is 1100 watts of power and many different options, 7 preprogramed settings for heating, cooking, and 3 different options for popcorn, yes 3 and an option to keep the food warm until ready to serve. I was surprised at how quickly it made baked potatos to perfection. And reheating my coffee was trial-and-error on my part, it heats hot and fast. I would have given this product 5 stars, but the only downfall was the door opens too quickly, it needs to be smoother when the latch is pushed. Overall, a great appliance for any size kitchen!

Useful microwave

Good product so far, the heating power is high and efficient, heats food quickly and according to time set. Has many convenient pre selected settings like popcorn, and auto defrost. It has a very spacious interior while being a not so big appliance, fits perfectly on any countertop without occupying too much space.

BEST MICROWAVE EVER!!

It's the BEST Microwave I have ever had! No more cold spots in your food when another part is so hot you can't stand it! No more dried out edges on your food! I Love the Sensor Reheat “Less”! My food is the perfect temperature all the way through! It's so quiet, I had to listen closely to make sure I pushed the start button Sensor Defrost is Awesome too! I won't ever buy anything else, as nothing can stand up against this one! If you want the top of the line pick this one! Food cooks faster!

Small microwave packed with power

The Panasonic Countertop Microwave Oven is a great addition to a small kitchen, or even to a well stocked kitchen if you're interested in an additional microwave. We love the convenience of a 2nd microwave, especially since this is a smaller microwave that doesn't take up a lot of counter space in an somewhat unused corner and this 2nd microwave is great when we're reheating leftovers, or keeping something warm while we're cooking vegetables or an entree. The size is perfect for heating up a plate of food, making a bag of popcorn, frozen entrees, and cooking vegetables or soup. Another great feature are the 7 integrated cooking options, making it extremely easy to cook many of the most frequent items we use a microwave for. Of special note was how perfectly (and quickly) the popcorn was done! I definitely recommend this for a smaller kitchen because of it's smaller footprint, but also it's packed with great features and power that we find useful as a 2nd microwave in our kitchen.

Great Microwave. Horrible window.

We received the all white product. This did not bother us as our cabinets are white. This microwave replaced a smaller less wattage Kenmore product and the footprint is not much larger, yet it allows us to use larger plates and dishes. We love the Genie sensor. It is extremely easy to use and warms food very well. What we do t like is that you cannot see through the window to see your food.

Great microwave

This microwave works great and sensor cooking makes cooking simpler by taking the guess work out of the time needed. It perfectly baked 2 potatoes with the touch of 3 buttons. The door is not see through into the food so it makes checking on food mor difficult as you need to open the door. The time too cook is easily selected when pushing the buttons for the time you want like 1 min 30 min.

Great Microwave

Microwave works amazing. The 1100 Watt Auto reheat with sensor is great. We especially love the three popcorn settings. However the additional or less has to be used right after choosing your popcorn setting, before pressing starting. Buttons are easy to push. Panel is easy to read. Clock is easy to set. Also love the 30 sec button.

Great performance

I received a white microwave instead of black but it actually goes better with my kitchen since I have stainless and a white dishwasher. I love the defrost mode on this microwave. I've always had trouble with microwaves over thawing and actually cooking the food but the sensor on this one works great and it was perfect without having to stand and keep checking it. The pads on the control panel have to be pushed a little harder than my old one but it didn't take long to get used it.

Microwave with tons of cool features.

This is a great microwave. Despite it's 1100 watts, I am pretty sure it is stronger, and is definitely more efficient, than the old 1200 watt one I am replacing. It's not as wide as my old one but I think prefer that as I will now be able to toss the glass rotation plate into the dishwasher, my previous one was too large and stopped the water blades from spinning. Setting the clocks time was a breeze, was intuitive and took 15 seconds at most. The manual that accompanies the microwave is user friendly with detailed instructions including step-by-step pictures making it very informative and helpful. It even includes a food prep guide, a cookware guide, a conversion chart (oz to lbs), defrosting tips and chart and the sensor cook chart. This microwave has some great and convenient features. The 'Auto Defrost' feature is convenient when I forget to thaw meat for dinner (this happens more frequently than it doesn't lol). There is a 'Quick 30' setting to add 30 sec increments of cooking time. 'Keep Warm' feature keeps food warm for up to 30 mins and can even be set as the last stage after cooking something, this is very convenient and cool. The 'Child Safety Lock' disables its ability to operate preventing misuse. The 'Popcorn' setting has 3 size options and easy way to add or reduce cook time. The 2 coolest features that I love and am so impressed by are 'Sensor Reheat' and 'Sensor Cook'. The 'Sensor Reheat' heats food perfectly for me but allows my husband to opt for a little less cook time so it's cooler to his preference and even hotter than mine for my daughter. The manual even gives tips to ensure a tasty reheat. 'Sensor Cook' is the coolest feature of the microwave! It determines the time needed to cook potatoes, fresh or frozen veggies, frozen pizzas, frozen entrees, casseroles, and ground meat! Yes it claims to cook ground meat - I haven't tried cooking ground meat yet but am excited to give it a try. I have used it to cook potatoes (my husbands favorite) several times and they have all come out perfectly. It did not matter if it was a red skin or russet or if I did 1, 2, 3 or 4, when I prepped them as the manual said they came put perfectly everything. I am excited to try cooking fresh veggies and frozen pizzas using the 'Sensor Cook'. I ordered black but received a white one. Contemplating if I am exchanging it for the black as my appliances are stainless steel with black accents but the microwave is going in the pantry where no appliances are and the white actually looks better and brighter. Regardless of color this is a great microwave with tons of amazing features that are so convenient.
