Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Panasonic Prestige NN-SD688S, 1.2-Cubic Foot 1300 Watt Sensor Microwave Oven, Stainless Steel
Customer Review: Very good little machine
Summary: 5 Stars
I agree with many of the comments of the other reviewers. This is a very solid product and as far as microwaves go performs very well. In fact, it may be too powerful. Here are some key points:
1) Yes the door button is too small and too hard to press. It does get a little better over time but it is a bit of a pain - especially given that the feet slip easily on the countertop surface.
2) It is a very small unit. My previous microwave was 1.2 cubic feet but it was a much larger unit. I think it would be more equivilant to the 1.6. Having said that there is more than enough room for most items. It simply takes much less counter space.
3) The light does not come on when you open the door - only when it is running. Not a big issue but something I find odd in a "prestige" edition. I would think it would have all the bells and whistles.
4) It does take some getting used to the controls. Personally, I like the layout on the GE and Sharp units better but this isn't terrible. The display like everything on this unit could be bigger but again it's not that bad.
Overall I would give it a 4.5 and I would definitely recommend it. Time will tell if it holds up as well as my 12 year old Sharp Carousel II but so far it is a very good perfomer.
