Product Description
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.

 Lousy microwave August 6, 2008
Scottie's Mom (Newton, MA)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
We bought this microwave at Bestbuy after doing some research into what's a dependable model. We paid $165 on June 30. Today is Aug 12, and the microwave broke already! We don't abuse our appliances and are basically gentle users. Today I tried to heat up some frozen bread for 10 sec, and it goes on for 1 sec and turns off by itself. The turntable no longer turns. I tried all the other features, and the same thing happens - it turns on for a sec or 2, and then lights out. What a piece of junk! How can they sell an appliance that lasts less than 6 weeks??????????
 Nice oven with a few drawbacks July 6, 2008
Sunny Daze (Alabama)
Our twelve-year-old Kenmore finally died. After a lot of research, we finally decided on this brand and model.
Pros:
This is a large oven. Anything that doesn't fit probably should not be cooked in a microwave anyway. It is a powerful oven. Things that took 90 seconds in our old oven only take 60 seconds in this one. Function programming allows you to turn the clock on/off and the beeper on/off (see Cons). Operating noise is very low. Full-power cooking requires only setting cook time and pressing start. The "Sensor Reheat" function works well as long as your food is not covered (and anything with tomato products or beans probably should be covered).
Cons:
Our biggest complaint is the noise it creates when closing the door. This produces a very loud, tinny clang that can be heard all through the house.
Although it is a large oven, it is lightweight and quite often pushing the door release will slide the entire oven backwards.
Changing the power level requires pressing the power level button multiple times - e.g., defrosting at 30% level requires pushing the power level eight times. Our old oven required only two - power level and 3 on the keypad.
Likewise, setting nine minutes on the "Quick Min" function requires pushing the "Quick Min" button nine times and then pressing start. Our old oven required only pushing "Quick Cook" and 9 on the keypad (without having to press start).
The keypad had no tactile feel. If you turn off the beep function, you need to pay close attention to the display to make sure the key you pressed actually activated. Turning off the beep function also turns off the end-of-cycle beep. Since the end-of-cycle beep is not nearly as loud and irritating as our old oven, we chose to leave this function "on."
Conclusion:
Although not perfect, we are satisfied overall after using this unit for two months. Based on a number of other reviews, we did purchase the extended warranty.
 If you need a GIANT microwave... July 3, 2008
Sandra K. (Minden, NV)
It's VERY nice looking. It's HUGE. (You can fit a turkey in there!) It's, also, occasionally blowing the fuse in our break room. Be careful to use the popcorn button, or turn the heat down to 7. If not, you're going to burn your popcorn.

An excellent microwave oven. Haven't had time to use it much yet but I have a lot of faith in Panasonic products.
If you must buy this, you must also buy a 2 year replacement plan. March 7, 2008

Purchased August 20, 2006. Failed within 19 months (March 2008). It makes an electrical arcing sound (similar to a Jacob's Ladder, often seen in cheesy Sci-Fi flicks) and emits a burning smell from an unknown source, and shuts itself off before even 10 seconds pass of cooking on high. No foreign metal has been placed inside, instructions have been followed to the letter, and very little shaking has been done to it.
Putting the sensor reheat/sensor cook (a must) together with the good reviews at the time, I bought it.
Unfortunately it seems not enough work was put into solidifying the electrical system, due to what essentially was a fire in my case, and I suspect exactly the same for reviewer VLG "VLG" (Enid, OK).
Due to my experience, VLG's review (fire), John H. Stoufer's review (died), and Deb's comment on said review (2 in less than 3 years), I would advise AGAINST purchasing this model, as all units seem built to fail within 2 years.
