We were quite happy with this Microwave and agree with most of the positive points given about it in other higher reviews but it lasted just over 2 years. We were of course hoping it would last longer than this.
Was easy to clean and the turbo defrost function was very good. We were not annoyed by the cool down feature.

So happy with this microwave. Brilliant cooking and very even heating elements. Very, very sleek looking. Absolutly fantastic microwave, couldnt live without it. I wouldnt hesitate to buy it again thats for sure. Panasonic makes fantastic products, always have and probably always will. Never been disappointed with a panasonic product.

Personally, Panasonic gets very high ratings for this models. Speed of heating is really satisfied me. Something not really mentioned here is that a trim kit could be purchased for this model, to place it inside of a cabinet. I'm not saying this is necessarily for over the stove, but okay for a "built in" cabinet look.

Used it for about 3 months now and up against a 15 year old microwave with a turntable we are very underwhelmed. It works but not as good as the old one, an example, when defrosting meat with he old one we had to take care not to cook the meat this one needs three or four goes to do the same job. When cooking with it the food is not evenly cooked unless you reposition it every minute or two. Keep and eye on gumtree for a bargain.

Buying this Microwave has been a life saver. It cooks meals so quickly it has saved me so much time when I have been running around and trying to get places in a hurry. Unlike other microwaves, I've had to go back and check my meals and then reheat them.

This is the best microwave I've ever had.
It heats evenly and defrosts well.
The Settings are easy to use.
Not too loud.
Easy to clean.
Good size.
Having no turn table makes it better for putting larger or square size dishes in. Also makes cleaning the microwave much easier.

I use the microwave for pretty basic needs but have been very happy with evenness of cooking and find it very easy to clean (no plate to pull out!). Simple to use and intuitive button display. Nice and quiet although i usually stop before it finishes if bub is asleep as the final beeping can be quite loud.

Not happy. Bought about 6 months ago & worked ok to begin with. Now having problems. E,g heating frozen Light & Easy meal of Chicken Parma which has a slab of chicken in it. After the recommended 8 minutes it is cold in the middle of the chicken & sometimes hard. Put it on for another minute, little change. put it on for another 2 minutes & it is hot enough.

Very satisfied with this microwave. It's well built and easy to clean for me. It's quite spacious so I can basically cook and heat everything I want to. The price is ok and the microwave is not as loud as my old one. The only thing I don't really like is that there is no turntable, which I am quite used to.

A love hate relationship I have with this microwave.
I love the flatbed interior, the sleek look and simple features, the only problem, we’ll make that 2 is that it has failed me twice. The first time it started smoking from the centre and slightly scaled the area. Fortunately it was still under warranty and was replaced.
The second problem was that I kept having to tap the door open button to get it working, the button was faulty and the machine thought the door was open so it would not work until the internal light went out. Unfortunately this was after a year, hence the skip.
Would I recommend it to anyone, NO, would I buy another one YES.
Work that one out.

We've had this microwave in constant use for about a year. We chose it based on brand quality and capacity.
Being a flat bed oven it means I can fit a larger square or rectangular dish in it.
I was concerned at first that it might not heat evenly, like the ancient original pre-turntable microwaves tended to do, but found that I need not have worried.
It is as quiet as most microwave ovens can be expected to be when sitting in a tower cabinet which tends to act as a resonator anyway.
I don't find it excessively noisy and without a turntable moving around, it is probably quieter than many others.
All in all, I'm very happy with my choice. As a side bonus, the lack of turntable makes it much easier to wipe out moisture.

After having my Panasonic Genius microwave for 30yrs, it still going strong and outliving two Sharps along the way, I had no hesitation in buying this latest model for our unit, but was soon very disappointed. On the Defrost setting it partly cooks the meat turning it grey in an uneven pattern. Manually adjusting power to lowest works better, but then have to guess and manually enter a time as opposed to a weight. The light is very dim and it's impossible to see whether something is boiling over etc. Also the control panel has quite small print making it hard to read, especially when you are over 50 and it is mounted in a dedicated microwave cavity below the kitchen bench.

I am extremely happy with this microwave. So much easier to clean with no turntable. Very stylish and great I can now fit bigger dishes in a microwave as it does not rotate. Highly recommend. I great range of settings and very good price. It also fitted well into my cupboard space

We've had this microwave for about 2 months now and absolutely love it. Food is always evenly heated as there is no rotating tray. This is also an advantage as you can fit larger plates and dishes in the tray to be heated. I find it faster and more efficient than a traditional microwave, and it has a range of great, easy to use settings. Definitely a great buy

Fantastic first microwave for those just moving out of home. I really like that there is no revolving plate as this makes it super easy to clean if there is a spill. We find that it is not too loud and was quick and easy to get used to. I feel the the green lit display is the only downside.

Have to agree with the above. Talked into mine by the lady at the good guys regretted it ever since. Just heated a bowl of pasta from fridge 1st try 2 mins still cold, then another min still cold. Tried 1 more min and it is stone cold in middle and red hot on sides and bottom. would never buy again

Love this microwave with no turntable to clean, heats beautifully and thorough, just wipe the bottom and your done, best ever Microwave. It has the cooling down mode after food is heated.

Very descent one from Panasonic based on induction technology. The fact it does not have a rotating glass base makes cleaning all the more easier if there is an accidental spill of liquids.
Temperature adjustment and operation of the microwave is very simple and easy. Will certainly recommend this one
