Review: I have had my Panasonic combination microwave for 6 years now and it the best appliance I have ever owned. It took me a while to get familiar with it but with practice you won't even have to look at the recipe book. I hardly ever use my conventional oven now as it is so easy with Panasonic. I can cook a 2 kilo chicken (to perfection) in 35 minutes. My Yorkshire puddings nearly touch the roof of the microwave and are very light and fluffy. I bought 2 more for my daughters and one has never used her electric oven, she does all her cooking in the microwave, and occasionally uses the gas hob.

Review: This is THE combination oven to have. Panasonic really know their stuff when it comes to cooking a wide variety of dishes, perfectly. Buy this and you'll never go back to your regular oven. Take time to get to know your oven and together you'll impress the whole family. We mostly use ours to cook chicken or duck on a bed of brown rice and lentils, all seasoned with Jerk seasoning...all in one dish and only needing to return to the oven to turn the chicken once, it comes out perfect in about 45mins... heaven on earth!

Review: My Mother has been the proud owner of a Panasonic Genius microwave oven from soon after they first came out. Once she'd convinced herself that all this radiation wasn't actually harmful etc. She's had it for years now, easily 10+ and aside from the bulb inside going twice, I think, and an Auto Sensor problem once, it's worked like a dream. In fact, when the engineer came to look at the Auto Sensor problem he strongly advised that where possible to always get our old model fixed rather than get rid of it. He told us they worked like a dream and in his experience had very few major problems. I've moved out of the parental home now and looking to replace my budget microwave. First place I went to look was the Panasonic website to see whether the Auto Sensor facility was still around on some models. I'll definitely be considering this one. The brand and a previous model gets such high praise from my Mum!

Review: I have had an older (the same in all practical aspects) version of this microwave and I can honestly say it is THE BEST kitchen appliance I have ever had. It very rarely cooks anything badly and if you do find it cooks you chips/jacket spuds a little more than you like you can just press a button and it will cook it for 10%(or whatever it is) more or less than usual. Unfortunately my microwave went bang (something to do with the hot weather and a variety of factors apparently) and I will definitely be buying another exactly the same. Fantastic microwave.
