It's fine - it does what you need a basic microwave to do. My real gripe is that the twiddly thing that is supposed to hold the Pyrex plate in place as too shallow so any time you put anything in or out you knock it off the thingy and it therefore doesn't rotate or the plate comes out with whatever it is you are taking out of the microwave. It is probably some monumental character flaw in me, but I find that really annoying!

Of all the microwaves I have ever used or bought this is the worst, as my father would have said this was put together by a blind man on a galloping horse. OK it works as a microwave but: there are gaps on all the corners and the middles are clipped or screwed tight so every surface is curved, it rocks/wobbles on a flat work surface, in use it's noisy and the top surface gets very hot so don't put anything on top of it. I have previously always bought Panasonic because of the quality of the build and no issues/problems with them, but this will be the last Panasonic product I ever buy. If I hadn't needed it I would have sent it straight back.

The painted steel lining has rusted around the door, this started within 24 months of purchase, it is now so bad (48 months on) that I consider microwave leakage a real possibility. It is working fine but I will now have to buy another microwave. My new one will have a STAINLESS lining and door if not all stainless.

I bought this from Amazon 3 years ago. The lining is both hard to clean and badly flaking off and the turntable consistently falls off the ring holder. Really disappointed with Panasonic. Don't recommend this. After putting up with it for 3 years I'm looking to buy a new one and it won't be Panasonic.

My first one decided to turn itself on randomly which was obviously rather terrifying! Panasonic customer services were absolutely useless but luckily amazon know how to look after their customers and I had a new machine the next day. The second one was adequate (didn't cook like an 800w and slipping turntable) but now the paint has peeled off the interior, exposing metal and rendering it unusable. Given up and gone with a different brand now.

I bought this microwave when we first move to the UK and it exploded after about a year and a half for no apparent reason. I thought it was a fluke and had liked it prior to this event, so I just replaced it. Nope. Not a fluke. The same thing has just happened two seconds in to warming up my lunch crack, pop, sparks, smoke, smoke, smoke. Luckily I hadn't even had time to walk away from the machine yet. Don't waste your time.

Bought as 800W, labelled as 800W but it is running like 700W. Expected much better from Panasonic.
