Customer Review: Design and power overcome minor flaws
Summary: 5 Stars
Our previous Panasonic (NN-H504WF) died after 5 years of good service and we were looking to replace it with something similar. We were looking for stainless steel or black to complement our other appliances, but it was hard to find something that met our size and wattage requirements that also had some style- or at least wasn't UGLY. There are tons of GE models out there, but the reviews generally stink, plus my husband's personal experience with GE is that they no longer make good products.
We found this one online and it looked pretty good, but we were a bit hesitant due to some of the negative reviews. We actually went to a Target store to purchase it, in case we had to return it. I'm happy to say we won't need to do that- this microwave is perfect for us. It's compact, has a higher wattage for the size than almost any other model we've seen, and is very attractive. The comment someone made about only the front panel being true stainless is true, but that doesn't detract at all from the appearance.
And, it cooks well! Our previous Panasonic was 1200 watts but we think it may have deteriorated near the end- this one definitely cooks faster, but still evenly. The features are actually almost identical to our previous model, as are the flaws- like the fact that you have to press the Power button multiple times to get the level you want, then enter the time, and the fact that the light doesn't come on when you open the door. But we are used to those and it doesn't bother us. The display issue is a slight annoyance- we can easily read the time from anywhere in the kitchen, but when you are standing right next to the unit you have to step back or bend down to see the numbers. Fortunately, our short term memory is generally good enough to remember the numbers we just entered on the panel when we want to cook something, so it really isn't a big issue.
Overall the oven is everything we need, and we are more than willing to overlook its minor flaws. It seems that microwaves these days are not meant to last like they used to, so we'll see how much longevity we get out of it. The 5 years we got out of the last one was reasonable, in my opinion, and we've had good experiences with other Panasonic products, so we figured this would be a good bet.
