Takes time to read through literature, but it works and the food is nicely cooked/reheated etc. One small concern the inside of the door misted up when using the auto roast programme, so may get this checked out. Otherwise everything seems OK. Very versatile and useful piece of equipment. Cheaper alternative from using the gas oven?
My last Panasonic microwave was over 20 years old and still great if the door hadn’t broken.
Fantastic wish every kitchen appliance was as good.. haven’t had a conventional oven since I’ve had my microwave.
Thoroughly recommended.
The display is not the typical LED segment display – it’s some kind of very low quality LCD with a green backlight that is always on. The display is hard to read, and you have to be at eye level or it looks milky.
The user interface is absolutely horrific. Unintuitive, inconsistent, and I haven’t been able to find any usual conveniences like single touch to add to the existing cook time. Pressing any time increment button during cooking does nothing; instead you have to wait for it to finish then press a separate “add time” button then press the actual +minute or +second button. Infuriating! But this seems to be the state of modern microwaves in general.
I do like this microwave but the bulbs blown and Panasonic expect me to hike it across town to a service company Babber who have not responded to my email, and Panasonic refuse to give me the part number.
I live alone and it seemed to be quite expensive to use the oven on my cooker just to cook for myself. So far with the aid of some microwave cookware I’ve managed to feed myself quite well.
Using combinations like microwave and grill or convection and microwave I’ve been able to cook things quicker and believe that’s where the savings are made.
I also think that I’m eat a bit healthier because I’ve been steam cooking items like various vegetables, rice and fish.
I’m also finding it a lot easier to clean as it’s on the worktop, where as I have to get on my hands and knees to clean the oven in my cooker.
It’s still early days yet, but I think with a bit more practice I could make this my main appliance for cooking rather than my conventional cooker.
It took a bit of getting used to, only having used a microwave before, now I cook 90% of my meals in this. It’s quick and easy, warms up really fast and is very versatile. Getting used to the two-tier cooking took a bit of getting my head around until it clicked that it was just a ‘shelf’ – stupid I know, but…
I’m getting older, so not having to bend over (I have an under bench oven) and reach across an oven door (this unit has a standard microwave side opening door) to lift out food is brilliant – it’s simply open the door, reach in and take out the food, no bending, stretching, twisting or turning required!
Question to all the oven manufacturers, why do the doors open down over?
I would buy this again, I’m just hoping I don’t have to for quite a while
Love this slimline microwave. Fits perfectly in our holiday static caravan.
This was a replacement for my previous Panasonic Combi – got a few new buttons which I’ve not explored yet – it only arrived yesterday but I’ve christened it and I’m very pleased with i
Although I’ve struggled with programmable type microwaves in the past this one is so easy to use even with the combi modes. It is easy to just use power level and time settings too. It has a large capacity despite a small footprint overall.
Replaced my 7-yr old very basic microwave, with this from Amazon Warehouse – it is stylish, functional and excellent at utilising the different cooking methods. I was a little wary about buying a returned / refurbished item, but It was a really good choice!
I bought this as a replacement for my basic microwave and have been very pleased with it. The instruction book is very comprehensive and although I have not yet tried everything it can do, I have been very pleased so far.
Due to the spiralling cost of electricity, decided to replace our ageing microwave with the Panasonic Combi Oven, on offer at 170. No bigger than the microwave it replaced but much more usable we are finding it indispensable. High microwave power (1000W) aids speed of cooking ready meals. Grill is very efficient (although smaller than main oven). Convection cooking is quicker than main oven (and uses less than half the electricity) as no need to preheat for most items. Recently cooked a piece of beef using the Auto/Roast setting and it cooked it to perfection – very impressed! Main oven is only used when cooking larger quantities that won’t fit into the Panasonic (Yorkshire Puddings for example) Overall, 10/10 and would buy again, especially when on offer.
I am an avid fan of Panasonic micro waves and only once have I purchased another brand – I gave it away after a few months. This latest purchase was for cosmetic reasons i.e. a change of colour. The old one is still working fine.
The high only steel grill let’s it down. I got a high/low stainless steel grill for 6.99. Works very well.
This is a reliable product as im most Japanese’s products. Over 26 years I have owned 4 0f these Panasonic ovens. This time I was lucky to purchase a great oven ar an attractive price. In my experience this product gives the user a reliable service.
A grill was a must has i cook steaks in there.
This model is a great choice, virtually the same programs as the old one but with tons of extras.
The large 27 Litre capacity is handy has i can use larger plates, the microwave is larger than the other and takes up a little more counter space.
Being 1000 Watt I was expecting 800 setting for cooking frozen food as this is generally what they are cooked on but it doesn’t have one, the next setting is 600 for unknown reason.
Just means you have to reduce the cooking time by 30 sec per 100 watt, when cooking on Full power .
Not a big fan of cooking frozen pizza, it seems to over cook the edge and under cook the middle, plus being frozen you can’t add extra ingredients.
This is a great size for a large family, plenty of programs for nearly any thing you can think of, it’s mega quiet and I’m hoping it’s going to be has reliable as the last one
Love this brands performance, easy to use on all functions just wish they would stay working for longer.this is number three of this model or similar but the fact I’m prepared to replace every couple of years just demonstrates how much I like it.
Takes a while to get used to, but otherwise so far very good.
Very impressive.
Pros..
Stainless inside is important, higenic, easy to clean and easy to see inside, won’t rust.
No exposed grill or oven element to burn spashes on or get in the way of rice packets when standing.
1000 watt, the powerfulest and quickest microwave
Cons ..
Display could do with being a bit brighter.
I thought the thick booklet rather confusing, but since using all the functions I think this splendid. It probably helps if you are an experienced cook. But with time a new cook will get the hang of it.
This is my third one since they first came out years ago, I use it for most of my cooking, so don’t need to use my big oven. Very economical and versatile. I just can’t manage without it!
This is not much bigger on the outside than my very old microwave but internally it is much bigger. I have only used twice and just the microwave so cannot comment on other functions yet. So far really pleased.
Very pleased with this combi oven microwave it replaced one that we had had for many years. The oven is a good substitute for larger oven when cooking for one or two. The microwave is very powerful and has taken a little time to get used to. Also as the add said small on the outside but big on the inside. A very welcome aid to our kitchen.
Heats and cooks food. Simple really. It is powerful though…
Have had previously this product and it is now even better great instructions and cook book would not be without one
