 Behaving quite excellently. September 5, 2008

Indeed excellent,with no problems at all. The 1300-watt power is a welcome step-up from my older 1000-watt oven. But the best part is that one can leave the door open when not in use, and the light is *not on*. A great enemy of microwaves is rust. People close the door when finished with the oven, mostly to save the electricity and bulb. (Try replacing a microwave bulb!) Now when I reheat my tea and tea water, several times a day, NO PROBLEME!
A pleasant surprise. February 11, 2010

First, lets clarify things. Amazon has the dimensions wrong.
They have:
Height: 15-15/16 inches
Length: 20-3/8 inches
Depth: 11-7/8 inches
It should be:
Height: 11-7/8 inches
Length: 20-3/8 inches
Depth: 15-15/16 inches
The LED display is not as horrific as others have made it out to be. I'm over 6 feet in height and the unit is on a cart that is several inches lower than the standard counter top. If I am standing 2 feet back from the unit, I can read it without bending down.
The door latch works perfectly well, although the unit is amazingly light and may tend to slide if you don't have your other hand on it while pushing the latch button. I can understand that folks might prefer a handle, instead, but that would add to the cost ad detract from its appearance.
I had no trouble viewing the contents while cooking and the fact tat the light goes out when the door is open, did not prove to be a problem. I routinely leave the door open for a bit fo the moisture to dissipate, so I consider it a plus.
Food cooked very evenly, as did the defrosting process. The controls were pretty simple to figure out, without having to resort to the manual. The only thing I'd have done differently is put the sticker behind the door that describes the sensor cooking settings, above the cavity, rather than below it. It would make reading it easier.
Since this unit replaced a 24 year old 700 watt Samsung, cooking speed is obviously faster and the unit quieter. By the way, the signal beeps are loud enough for me to hear in a adjoining room with average ambient noise.
I can't comment on the unit's longevity, yet, but for now, I am very happy with this unit.

It's fast, easy to operate, and it has some outstanding features like the sensor reheat and sensor cook functions. The keep warm function is pretty cool too.

I had heard about Panasonic's variable power microwave ovens, and was intrigued by the idea that finally someone figured that that was a better plan that merely turning the magnetron on and off for periods of time. Because of that feature, it will be possible to heat things faster even while using a lower power setting. Though I've not yet had occasion to use the lower power; rest assured I will need to eventually. I can tell you that what I do like about the oven the most is that it heats things very fast, and is much quieter than the Sharp Microwave Oven that it replaced. As I become more familiar with our new microwave, and if it is needed, I will make further commentary on the oven. Overall, I am impressed with the quality of Panasonic products, and I expect to have this microwave oven a long time.
Great Microwave for the price January 24, 2009

This is an excellent buy for anyone in need of a microwave. It has plenty of power to heat/cook any food quickly and I really like the different power levels for reheating food. I have had this model for several years and bought another for a gift to my daughter and son in law.
