  • Replacement OK So Far
Style: 1.2 cu.ft - Stainless Steel Pattern Name: Microwave
I had a larger model of this type Panasonic microwave and it was the best one I ever had, lasted for 15 years or more with heavy use. I read the reviews but went ahead and bought one which had a September 2022 manufacture date. It worked 5 times then gave the H97 error code. Thanks to Amazon's policy I was able to exchange it quickly and received a replacement which had a November 2022 manufacture date. I have had countless Panasonic products besides a microwave and have never had an issue with any. I called the Panasonic customer service and asked them if they were any quality control issues. They were prompt and courteous but stonewalled on that as expected and said to send it for repair. So far the replacement is working well. The functions do take getting used to and if the power goes off you have to jump through hoops to reboot but not big issues for me. It has plenty of power. ... show more

  • Everything it's cracked up to be.
Style: 1.2 cu.ft - Stainless Steel Pattern Name: Microwave
I've read about Panasonic microwave ovens for years. They are truly "different" than other microwaves, in that they use inverter technology to modulate (turn down) the microwave energy as needed to cook different types and quantities of food. In most microwaves the power is either on full blast or off. Panasonic microwaves turn down the power from a level ten down to a one smoothly and continuously. This greatly eliminates hot and cold spots in food, cooked and uncooked, ensuring that everything is done evenly and to near perfection. I use mine for popcorn, and it cooks it to perfection with its pre-programmed popcorn button. This unit has a sensor that monitors both heat and the humidity given off by food so that its computer knows exactly where everything is at during the cooking process. A list of pre-programmed selections are printed right inside the door, so there's no hunting for the manual to tell the unit what you're cooking. It has a novel keypad, in that there are actual "real" buttons, with a tactile feel rather than the plastic pads that most microwaves have, that often become troublesome as the unit ages. Also, there are only three buttons for entering the coooking time, a 10 second button, a one minute button, and a 10 minute button. If you want 20 seconds, you press the 10 second button twice, if you want 30 minutes, you press the 10 minute button 3 times, and so on. At first this took some getting used to, but I've gotten to like it very much. This frees up space on the keypad for other presets which are very helpful. This brings me to my only complaint. The labeling of the keypad is in VERY small print, and because it is black letters printed on a silver background, it makes it quite hard to read without turning on a bright light. I am so pleased with everything else on this microwave, I've learned to work around this issue. Physically, this unit is much smaller than my previous unit, but it is still plenty big for everything I want to cook. The upside is that it takes up much less room but still cooks at a full 1200 watts, which is the maximum allowed for a household microwave oven. The interior is finished with a charcoal color, which unlike white, shows almost nothing, so it looks clean all the time. I have to remind myself to clean the inside, because nothing shows. It also has an interior LED lamp, which could be a little brighter, but does illuminate the interior well, and should last the life of the microwave. I've purchased some microwave accessories (available here on Amazon), a small grill for making paninis, grilling steaks or hamburgers, and even hot dogs, and a roaster that does everything from steaming vegetables to poached eggs, baking muffins, chicken, and they work great in this microwave. All in all I would highly recommend this microwave to anyone looking for a compact high power unit that does a great job on anything you would ever think of cooking in a microwave, and even things you normally wouldn't. ... show more

  • Pros and cons of Panasonic NN-SN68KS
Style: 1.2 cu.ft - Stainless Steel Pattern Name: Microwave
First off I will be keeping this microwave despite several obvious flaws. The inverter technology is good, plus I’m replacing a sub standard microwave with this so anything is an improvement. It just seems these days no one beta tests prior to launch. Pros…. Inverter technology Door latch is smooth and closes easily. Plenty of power, heats quickly and nice size at 1.2 cu. Ft. The buttons are a big bonus over a flat keypad. I thought at first the operating system would seem flawed. To change time or power you punch the same button several times. As opposed to hitting numerical buttons to enter time values. But now I like this system. Cons…. The interior light is useless along with the dark interior. Opening the door requires right hand to press the button and left hand to open the door. A handle with a release button would have been one handed and so much easier. Noisy when running. Twenty buttons, half of which will never get used. Kind of a gimmick. Could have had six larger buttons that were easier to use. ... show more

  • No Thrills Microwave
Style: 1.2 cu.ft - Stainless Steel Pattern Name: Microwave
I have a cutout in my kitchen that perfectly fit my broken microwave. Unfortunately, I didn't have too many options because of that fact. Consumer Reports say that Panasonic was one of the better microwaves out there so that is why I looked for the brand. Sadly, the dimensions are very misleading and inside the microwave is a small capacity. The sound when in use is not too loud and that is the same for the alarm when setting the timer. You won't hear the timer in another room. I reviewed the instructions and the power level needs to be reset every time depending on the food. Also, I thought it wouldn't bother me but setting the heating time is really a pain. You have to press too many buttons to set the time you want. The button to open the door requires no pressure on a couple occasions, I thought it was broken. I am pretty sure that the door close button will be the first to go. I didn't return it because I use the microwave for reheating only and it is not a major appliance for my kitchen. It is an OK microwave and I am on the fence if I would ever recommend this brand/model. The dimensions for the exterior of the unit are 20 1/8 inch wide, 13 3/4 inch deep, and 12 inches from feet to the top. There product description has 2 other dimensions noted, not the same as the product I received. ... show more

  • Looks good in the kitchen
Style: 1.2 cu.ft - Stainless Steel Pattern Name: Microwave
I bought the built in kit to replace my kitchen aid microwave oven, which broke after 10 years service. This one is a lot higher quality and feels more high end and expensive. But the total price is cheaper than the lower quality predecessor. Usability is not that high as all other classic microwaves, still the last century technology, no blue tooth, no control from cell phone. But ver smooth to feel and operate. I believe this is the same oven as the dirt cheap Panasonic one offered at Costco, only this one has the real key/buttons compared to a flat keypad. Real key is harder to clean though, only feels more expensive, and can be more reliable than a flat control pad. ... show more

  • FAST MICROWAVE! EVEN COOKING!
Style: 1.2 cu.ft - Stainless Steel Pattern Name: Microwave
We have been using a Cuisinart Microwave for the about 3 yrs now and I just got sick of it, slow to heat food and ALWAYS hot and cold spots that needed several more minutes to get the food uniformly hot. This microwave is the exact opposite. the food is always equal in temperature. I don't cook in the microwave, just reheat except for red potatoes. This microwave slays the potato to the extent you would think they were baked in the oven! I gave it 4 stars because it is a little difficult to read the lettering on the controls for seniors that are having vision problems but for my purposes I only use 2 or three buttons so I have gotten used to what and where to push. So far I love it! ... show more

  • Glad I waited to write this review
Style: 1.2 cu.ft - Stainless Steel Pattern Name: Microwave
Well it did take us a while to figure how to use this model, which is why it is only 4 stars. Once we reread about the reheat sensor instructions, we were able to really nail this function. We were putting our leftovers or other dishes in a bit too dry. If we mixed in just a little water so that the sensor could do it’s thing, all has been much better. We’ve found that if we use a cover for the food, when the sensor starts to time is usually when our food is just right. If not, it’s easy to start it going for a bit to get it to just the right temperature. Other features such as 10 second minimum times took getting used to, but it’s all fine now. Noisy as others have mentioned, but not awful. The door is a dream. Closes so easily. Fingerprints do have to be cleaned off but that’s stainless steel. Our guest room has our old microwave so everyone’s happy now. ... show more

  • Cooks Very Evenly
Style: 1.2 cu.ft - Stainless Steel Pattern Name: Microwave
The microwave I was replacing was 15+ years old. This one is smaller, but the cooking area is about the same. So far I have been very pleased to have a definite decrease in hot spots and cold edges. The Inverter Technology seems to work as advertised. There is an excellent owners manual that is helping me learn to use the sensor cooking feature. There are several buttons for different foods. I have not used all of these yet. The main thing that was different was there is no number panel for cooking. There are only 3 cooking time buttons as others have mentioned. These are for 10 seconds, 1 minute, and 10 minutes. You just add time by additional button pushes. Since there is no way to do 5 second increments, I was not sure if this would work, but I have found that setting the time for 5 seconds more or less does not affect the final outcome. Setting the power level is quite easy. I would suggest you take a look at the control buttons by enlarging that that part of the picture of the microwave. So far I am very happy with this microwave. ... show more

  • Design Fiasco
Style: 1.2 cu.ft - Stainless Steel Pattern Name: Microwave
So, first the good news. It "nukes", it's relatively powerful for its size, and it has a good amount of interior space considering its compact footprint. That being said, the buttons, logic, and programming functionality are a design fiasco. Does one really need 5 loud beeps after each cycle - all the beeps are always loud and can't be turned off. It'd be nice if the beeps would cancel when I open the door so I don't wake the rest of the household when heating breakfast at 5 a.m. How about some backlighting for the barely legible buttons? There's no indication of power level short of pushing and holding the power level selector for 2s - that could have been easily integrated into the display. Why does it require one to hit reset before adding 10s/1m/10m? Seems like a lot of arbitrary non-customizable programming design decisions made by some circuit board programmer that had his/her idea of how a microwave should operate. ... show more

  • Good value.
Style: 1.2 cu.ft - Stainless Steel Pattern Name: Microwave
This microwave was a good buy to replace old one. It fits the same area correctly and is easy to use though updated from our much older one. The only complaint I have is that my husband and I both have older eyes and the number panel is difficult to see and the inside light doesn't give a good view of food cooking- can't see if there is a spill over. I would recommend that if one buys this oven they put it on a shelf at eye level which we can't in our small kitchen. This would help seeing number panel and inside much better. Other than these issues we are very happy with this product. ... show more
