Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Stainless Steel Luxury Full Size Countertop Microwave Oven:
I use this product everyday for almost all types of cooking except meats. I am more than just happy with the product. The features are outstanding especially the inverter Turbo Defrost feature. It is so quiet, and does everything I want it to do. For families with young children, the Child Safety Lock feature will become indispensible. I highly recomend this product.

Love this microwave unit and I use it for everything from warming up to cooking.
customer service saved me by looking at our original records of 2003 and replacing the unit with like type and fit. Was even able to use the old unit's trim work. Thank you

Not Panasonic's whistles and bells model but it is right up there with the best of them.
The installers were very knowledgeable about product and could explain any question I could think of.
ABT IS THE GREATEST!
Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Stainless Steel Luxury Full Size Countertop Microwave Oven:
I've had this microwave for a little over three weeks now and have tried everything. The most I have used this for, as the same for most of you, is for pop corn and tv dinners. I like the pop corn option that if you keep hitting the button diffrent oz's come up keeping you from over cooking (burning). I also have noticed that this oven is quite powerful compared to my 1000w models I have used in the past. When preparing tv dinners I found it was best if used at 90% for the time list on the instructions, 100% for tv dinners always over cooked or burned the food.
The defrost worked perfectly, an option I refused to use in the past is now something I'm not a bit cautious to use. I have used it on 40oz sirlions and frozen ribs all defrosted evenly without cooking.
The controlls at first were odd and it took my family say a half a day to get used to.
I would recommend using microwave safe bowls and plates and staying away from those Glad disposable's, I find while using those to store/freeze is fine, once reheating in this powerful machine leaves somewhat of a plastic taste to your food.

Very easy transaction. We were replacing an older Panasonic Microwave that suddenly conked out. We wanted a similar model and ABT had it at a very fair price and in stock for immediate pick-up.

It has only been 3 weeks, working perfectly.
This unit (1250w) cooks faster than my old unit (850w) and I just need to get use to it.
Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Stainless Steel Luxury Full Size Countertop Microwave Oven:
I really like the dial feature, rather than the usual number keypad. You just turn the dial to the time you want; it is smooth and fast. There is plenty of room for anything you'd want to cook in it. It defrosts evenly, without cooking the food. It also looks really attractive on the countertop. I would purchase this model again.

Had the earlier model for 6 years and never had a problem. Bought this as replacement.

Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Stainless Steel Luxury Full Size Countertop Microwave Oven:
When you punch in the amount of time you wish to cook something, the clock runs much faster than the time indicated. In other words, if you enter 30, it does not represent 30 seconds of cooking time (it runs at warp speed). The sensor heat feature heats things way too much- food ends up scalding hot. Instructions don't indicate how to enter time properly, so that 30 represents 30 seconds. Someone in the office commented "if a microwave is too difficult to figure out how to use, then it is not worth having. I agree - it should be self-evident.
Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Stainless Steel Luxury Full Size Countertop Microwave Oven:
I was hesitant to order another Panasonic Microwave Oven, because a previous one of the same make had a lot of problems and only lasted two years. However, this model has allayed my fears, and so far in three weeks I have had no problems whatever. The unit is very quiet; the only minor issue is that the sensor reheat function tends to overheat the food. The dial control is somewhat easier to use than the typical touch pad, another plus. The best feature of all is the size of the cavity, which allows the use of larger plates and bowls than most.

The purchase of this product was for our small work kitchen area - we have a refrigerator and this microwave oven that's it. It works great, fits perfectly and cleans easily. A perfect replacement for our old microwave.
Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Stainless Steel Luxury Full Size Countertop Microwave Oven:
Perfect for defrosting food. My last microwave semi cooked while defrosting! Very very easy to use. The only downfall is that the push buttons are difficult to read if the microwave is not in the right light. It is a great microwave and I am very happy with it.

Excellent service, delivery.
Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Stainless Steel Luxury Full Size Countertop Microwave Oven:
I selected the Panasonic to replace the one I bought over 30 years ago. This unit is very easy to use. I particularly like the sensor cooking. It has taken the quess work out cooking vegetables, and done a great job with frozen fish.
The delivery was as stated. The packing was very secure so it was in good condition. Abt 's got game.

replaced my Panasonic circa 1981! It was a built-in and this was a perfect fit replacement.
Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Stainless Steel Luxury Full Size Countertop Microwave Oven:
Product works great. Many new features like the pop out dial. Also the sensor option makes for no guess work on cooking.
Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Stainless Steel Luxury Full Size Countertop Microwave Oven:
No negatives about this product at all. [...]Draws quite a bit of power, which means it cooks faster than many other units. Instructions indicate unit must be plugged into a grounded outlet. Mine is not, as I live in an old house, but the product works fine. However, I'd recommend following the instructions for safety.

Preprogramed functions are great. Cooks perfectly. Display does a nice job of guiding you through the setup.
Right on time.
Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Stainless Steel Luxury Full Size Countertop Microwave Oven:
This is a luxurious looking stainless steel MW oven that's also sleek, easy to use and powerful.
With 1250W high power output and a 16 1/2" diameter turntable, housed in a 2.2 cu. ft unit,
it's enough to fit the largest of popcorn bags.
The pop-out dial is unique and convenient and
the display is bright and clear. Everything you'll
need in a MW oven is nicely put together in this one.
