It does everything it says on the tin and more a great price of kit.
steven waltonReally happy with this microwave. Easy to use and so fast. Space inside is huge withoit being constrained by a turntable!
Amazon CustomerGreat machine, easy to use but a little difficult to keep clean as one is recommended not to use proprietary oven cleaners.
Mr Peter W GrayI am very happy with the above product. It replaced a previous model.
Jane SankeyI bought mine in 2013 and have only just considered buying a new one (still works like new but is well loved.)Other than hot plates, this is the only thing I've used to cook since purchasing. My dad is a head chef and I'm enthusiastic about cooking and we both love the quality of food my combi microwave produces - even after all this time it still never fails to evenly cook everything I throw at it.One thing I would say is I'm mostly only cooking for 1-2 and don't know if it'd be a suitable size for families.
Amazon Customergreat item

Allexhaving got used to it not turning round it is very easy to use and quick
ginnyWell made and very versatile. Easy to operate.
SafyI had one of these ovens for many years and was devastated when it “died” so pleased to find an exact replacement.
Irene DouganBought it in 2017 October, i think it's a good time to give it a review now since it's been almost a year.One of the best purchases to date...would definitely recommend as it replaces everything in your kitchen to one confined space. I could pretty much everything in this thing now!
Tallah KhanI bought this to replace my previous National Panasonic Combination which was worn out. Very pleased with the flat bed microwave, drop down door, grill and ability to have two shelves cooking at once BUT the convection oven overheats - when set a 190 C it goes up to over 250 C!! I found this out after having two disasters and finally putting an oven thermometer in. This makes the cookery book with it useless. My previous oven was perfect.Suggest if anyone buys this they invest in an oven thermometer as well.

Great machine. It grills nicely, auto cook is very good . Turbo very good too. Soft bleep when finished. Easy to use.
bigjannieOnly got this yesterday this is my 3rd Panasonic combination microwave I hope this gives me as good service as my last ones. So far so good I have only used it to reheat a previously cooked meal it had a excellent result. I will update after a few weeks of use
mistyoneThis product is not fit for purpose. It keeps switching itself off at random intervals. Its oven takes longer to heat up than a full-size conventional oven.

The microwave would of been good if it was not faulty. The convection was very noisy like the fan was not attatched properly, sounded like it was a out to take off. A LOT OF MONEY FOR A FAULTY ITEM ! Beware of the warehouse deals if you get sent faulty items , no replacement or repair options and have to fight to get a free return. Great shame as it would of been a good microwave.
AndreaI am extremely disappointed both with this combination-oven and with the unhelpful attitude of the manufacturers, Panasonic. A few years ago my sister-in-law recommended that I should buy a countertop oven because she was so pleased with hers, which is convenient and economical for baking in small batches. I had told her that I had given up my hobby of baking cakes now the family has grown up, because using the large oven seems expensive. After a lot of careful research I bought the oven on 15 September 2015. My reasons for choosing it included the fact that I trusted the Panasonic make. I have had a Panasonic microwave for a considerable number of years and it was, and is, still going strong. Also because of advancing years I thought that using a countertop oven would be easier, and this Panasonic oven was highly recommended by a number of users. At first I was delighted with it and used it daily for cooking evening meals and for baking cakes and biscuits. Unfortunately, after two years it began to fail. When the oven was heating up it started making a noise like winding up a clockwork toy. I gather that this was the timer mechanism going wrong. Then one day while I was cooking the evening meal I heard a bang and I saw that there was no longer a red l glow from the heating element, which obviously meant that it was broken. I made enquiries at our local repair shop where the shop owner told me that they aren’t qualified to repair these ovens and that finding someone to replace these two items could come to over half the cost of a new oven. However he said that Panasonic was a good make and he was sure that my cooker should not have gone wrong in as short a time as two years. He suggested that I should ring their Customer Care Department. I telephoned the number he gave me and I was very surprised to meet with what I can only describe as chilly indifference from the man at the other end. Rather than saying that he was sorry he told me calmly that it was usual for a number of the ovens to go wrong inside two years.
cdbHave had this model before so knew what to expect. I use it every day without fail. Microwaves cooks and grills brilliantly or any combination. This was a 'used, very good condition' purchase from Amazon so was much cheaper than locally, and apart from a dent in the side appears to be perfect.
