We bought this when we did a kitchen remodel 3+ years ago, and it's still nuking along just fine. It looks great, heats-up perfectly, and has every feature my wife and I need. Highly recommended!
Customer Review: Replacement
I purchased this as a replacement to a 10 year old nuker that blew up.

I am very happy with everything about this product, easy to use, clear instructions for special items.

Panasonic NN-SN667B 1-1/5-Cubic-Foot 1300-Watt Microwave Oven, Black

Panasonic NN-SN667B 1-1/5-Cubic-Foot 1300-Watt Microwave Oven, Black For quick meals, as part of a fast, hectic day, nothing is as efficient as making microwave meals. With Panasonic Microwave ovens, they can be tasty too!
Panasonic has succeeded in evolving Turbo Defrost, which allows you to defrost foods even faster than previous Panasonic Auto Defrost. Panasonic Inverter Turbo Defrost technology is an advanced microwave sequencing system using the Inverter low-power delivery feature. It was developed on the basis of what scientists call "Chaos Theory." This design makes it possible to distribute microwave energy with the most appropriate combination of regularity and irregularity.
Though heating foo9d is quick and easy, what about problems with heat retention once the food leaves the oven chamber? A pulsing delivery of very low microwave power keeps the temperature of your food at a constant level without overcooking. Our improved keep-warm menu now includes five items, so food like stew, gravy and desserts can stay warm in the oven until you are ready to serve.
With Inverter Microwave Ovens, you'll have all the power you need to cook with ease, speed, and style. Panasonic's Inverter technology takes advantage of multiple power levels, and it maintains the best colour, shape, texture, and flavours of your food. Delicate foods can simmer without overcooking on edges and surfaces. And, due to consistent delivery of microwave energy, foods will no longer undercook in the center and have hard overcooked edges. With this technology you'll enjoy cooking your food - and eating it too!
The Menu Action Screen is like having a gourmet chef to assist you in the kitchen. It scrolls step-by-step cooking instructions across the display in a choice of English, Spanish, or French. Our Function Key simplifies the programming of 10 useful, non-cooking functions. Extraordinary! Quick Minute (Add Minute) Feature More/Less Control Easy-to-Use Pop-Out Dial Elegant Design with R
Customer Review: The Door Opener Did Not Work
I purchased this microwave to replace and older version of the same machine. The reason for the replacement was that the old machine had rusted. I did a lot of research and even though my experience with the older model had not been good; it rusted severely after 3 years of use, Consumer Reports had given this model a good review.



The machine arrived in a timely fashion. Unfortunately this new model does not have a door handle but instead a latch release system which did not work. No matter how many times I pushed it the door would not open.

While I received a full refund, sending back a peice of equipment of that size was cumbersome.
Customer Review: Died in two months
I paid extra for what I thought would be a good name. It wasn't worth it. It just stopped heating. It makes noise, spins, lights, but nothing gets warm. It's being fixed, under warranty, BUT... I had to drive over an hour to the service center (and will have to do the same in two weeks or so when it's ready to be picked up), they gave me a hard time for having a "screen shot" of the proof of purchase from Amazon, AND I'd have to be without a microwave for two weeks or more.



When it was working, it was decent, but, as others have written, it's annoying that the light doesn't come on when the door is opened. Also, from time to time, the turntable binds for no apparent reason.



I'd expect more for $130. I just bought a slightly smaller stainless steel GE from Lowe's for $90 which I like much better. Oh, well.

Sharp R-320HW 1200 Watts Mid Size Microwave Oven, white

Sharp R-320HW 1200 Watts Mid Size Microwave Oven, white This microwave takes most of the guesswork out of defrosting, reheating, and cooking! It has sensor settings for ten of the most popular microwave foods, and for popcorn as well. It also can keep things warm, and it can be programmed for four cooking stages. Powerful and roomy, equipped with a child lock, a timer, and a clock, it's ideal for family use.
Customer Review: What a buy!
My microwave finally died so I started searching for a new one. My family LOVES popcorn and this one has a popcorn button with the option for even a snack bag size! It has popped every kernel perfectly, everytime! I love to option to reheat, but I haven't mastered the sensor heat yet. I think it may take some practice. The microwave is a great size too! I can easily fit a full dinner plate or five potatoes in a circle. It is also very quiet and while the screen might be a little dificult to read at certain angles, it doesn't bother me. I love the timer and it even has an option to keep the food warm which works great! All in all, I would highly suggest this product.


Customer Review: melted after 2 yrs
Did a lot of research and read reviews here, then bought this 2 yrs ago. Was OK except that whenever it was running for more than a couple of minutes, it developed a very loud hum/rattle that could not be stopped. Finally, a couple of days ago during normal use, a large section of the door actually melted onto the inside of the microwave! It's out of warranty but this is just plain unsafe. I will not buy Sharp again.

Good luck.

Customer Review: Built for short people
Microwave works great except for the terrible front panel display. If, like me, you install the unit on a counter top and want to be able to read the display, you had better be under 5 feet tall. Unreadable unless you stoop down...
Customer Review: panasonic microwave review
I bought this model at Wal-mart, and came to Amazon to check for price comparison (Looking for microwave as a christmas present). I've been very happy with purchase. Microwave looks very nice, I have mine sitting on a stand. Nice features, large capacity, powerful, quiet, and heats very quickly/evenly. Would definitley recommend this product based on the performance of the one I purchased. Amazon plus-10 or 15 dollars cheaper than what I paid.

Customer Review: Sharp 5 stars Amazon 1 star
This Sharp microwave is very good,however we were sent a black model instead of the white one we ordered.We picked this particular model because it shows a white microwave and thats what my wife wanted.After the initial disappointment we decided not to send it back,we wanted this particular microwave and didn't want to take a chance there wouldn't be one left.
Customer Review: Top Notch
I was swayed in selecting this item by the positive reviews and was not disappointed. This is a very good microwave and even 'tho it was advertised as white the black is quite acceptable. A fine product.

Panasonic NN-H965BF Luxury Full-Size 2.2-Cubic-Foot 1,250-Watt Microwave Oven, Black

Panasonic NN-H965BF Luxury Full-Size 2.2-Cubic-Foot 1,250-Watt Microwave Oven, Black This gigantic microwave oven services the family that is constantly eating on the run but has gourmet tastes that go beyond packaged frozen dinners. It is true that the oven takes up a great deal of counter space (measurements are 23-7/8 by 14 by 19-7/16 inches) but much of that space can be attributed to the large interior capacity of 2.2 cubic feet, which can fit an entire meal. The oven operates on a powerful 1,250 watts for quicker cooking and defrosting and has a sleek black exterior that looks well in most kitchens.

Most home chefs will find new and innovative features on this microwave that blow away the offerings on their previous models. To figure out the best way to cook a particular food, cooks can access step-by-step instructions on the Menu Action screen. The multi-lingual screen displays information in English, Spanish, or French on how to perform a function. Panasonic's One-Touch Sensor Cooking feature takes the guesswork out of microwave cooking by calculating cooking and reheating times automatically based on the amount of steam released. As part of Panasonic's Inverter Technology, the oven also incorporates a linear power control for even heat distribution so frozen macaroni and cheese doesn't get hot around the perimeter and remain cold in the center during cooking and frozen chicken breasts don't cook around the edges during defrosting. Another major innovation in microwave technology is a warming and simmering feature that delivers low-temperature heat to keep food such as pies, casseroles, or gravy warm without overcooking them. For cooks who are looking for a shortcut but don't want to sacrifice gourmet cooking, this microwave is an excellent option. This luxury microwave oven is covered by Panasonic under a one-year limited warranty while the Magnetron tube has an extended warranty of up to five years. --Cristina Vaamonde
Customer Review: Hot hot hot
We bought this microwave to replace our old one that died after 14 years.

This one is almost perfect. I do wish that you could use the timer simultaneously with the cooking process. Our old one did that.

It's a small thing though. It has so much power that it actually

fractured a plate I was cooking on yesterday. Hadn't seen that happen before. It happened at about 10 minutes while cooking the large pot pie.

It's very big and roomy. It has a huge rotating glass tray.

Overall I love it!!
Customer Review: Great Microwave
This unit is great and the only reason it did not rate a five star is because my wife doesn't like the push button door opener. She would like to be able to pull on a handle to open the door. As for me, I would give it five stars. I read allot of reviews before I chose this unit. One review said that their unit was noisey but ours is not. The plate of food option works great for me. It is the first microwave we owned that actually heated the whole plate of food evenly. It has an unbelievable amount of space inside. We are very happy with it.

Customer Review: Sharp R-410LK Carousel 1-2/5-Cubic-Foot Family-Size Microwave Oven, Black
This Microwave oven gets my highest rating even though Amazon only allows for five stars the oven is extremely fast and has the largest capacity for the price, also the quietest microwave oven I have ever heard or owned, I am amazed at the speed of cooking and reheating it can do and Amazon has the best and lowest price of any website I researched on, oven has a clock which was not stated on the description on the amazon page where it is located on there is however downfall to this microwave oven which I was very surprised to have witnessed for such an innovator of this type of oven they are known for their carousel that it did not have a luud beep when the oven is finished cooking or reheating you really have to be in a room that is very quiet to hear this beeping sound for when the oven is finished but all in all great oven great price and lots of cooking and reheating settings and loads of interior space, I was even able to put a Visions cookware pot in there without damaging the sides of the oven while the turntable is in motion which I thought I would not be able to do prior to receiving the oven I did have a concern that I would not be able to use this particular pot in there because of damage it could cause but I was pleasantly surprieed I was able to put it in this oven If you own a lower wattage microwave oven and you purchase this one you will also need to adjust your times by at least half the amount you already use on your current oven, I also love the minute plus setting, if you make a mistake in your time you can press this button to add one more extra minute everytime until you reach the desired time, it is very handy if you are not sure just how much more time you need with your cooking and don't want to have to go all through the steps again to reset and start over this button is so easy just one press and you get an extra minute I completely recommend this Microwave oven ot everyone, I just hope it last twenty years like my old Amana microwave did
Customer Review: Excellent
I have used the smaller microwave from Sharp and loved it. Lasted 11 years. Would not consider using any other brand. This microwave is an upgrade model, larger and at a great price. I love it!

Customer Review: Great...then it up and died
I bought this to replace a Panasonic microwave I had for about 10 years. The old one still worked, but I wanted the stainless steel look to match my other updated appliances. The dial took some getting used to, but in the end is more convenient than punching in a time. The display seems a little dim if you look at it from anything other than straight on. The unit worked great until about two weeks ago (about 16 months of ownership). I was just heating some soup for lunch and heard it shut off...no beeps indicating "done". I thought maybe I had tripped a breaker- nope. The unit just plain died. Of course I had just sold the old Panasonic at a garage sale about two months ago. Not sure I'd buy another Panasonic after my experience with this one.
Customer Review: GREAT MICROWAVE
I HAVE ALWAYS OWNED PANASONIC MICROWAVE OVENS--I PASS THEM DOWN AFTER ABOUT 10 YEARS OF USE BECAUSE OF STYLE CHANGES.

I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED WHEN THE NEW ONE ARRIVED. I LOVE THE NEW SLEEK DESIGN. IT HAS GREAT INSTANT FEATURES AND I AM SURE IT WILL LAST ANOTHER 10 YEARS.

It worked great for a few weeks and suddenly the door won't open on the first or second try. Not sure what happened.
Customer Review: Purchase of a panasonic microwave
Last month my mircowave went south and when you don't have this item you feel lost so I got on my computer and did some searching to find out which would be the best and had the outstanding ratings. With a few days of searching I went to Amazon to find out if they had what I was looking for.

Did a few other searches with other places and no could touch the price for the same product and Amazon had free shipping. I made my mind then and made my purchase and it only took three days to receive the merchandise and all was in good order and my wife and myself are happy campers thanks to Amazon. Thanks Amazon

Customer Review: Great microwave

This is the perfect medium-size microwace. It has buttons for defrost, popcorn, melt, soften, warm and reheat. It is simple and easy to use. It is not too small and not too big and fits nicely in the space in my kitchen.

Customer Review: Does what it's suppose to

I needed to replace my GE Overrange Microwave (which magnatron broke after only three yrs) and decided with so many bad reviews of the more expensive brands to go ahead and try the Sharp R-305KS. So far, so good! It fits my countertop and looks really nice. I find it easy to use. The only thing in comparison to the GE model is that it takes a little longer to cook food thoroughly and sometimes there are uneven areas (but I haven't used a microwave that cooks food perfectly even anyway). As long as this microwave outlasts my GE (which now serves as a breadbox) I'll be happy. I'll be happier anyway just because I didn't have to spend a fortune on this one!
