Unreliable -- stay away!
UNRELIABLE -- I have had mine about 4 years. I had to have it repaired a couple of times under warranty, and then two more time that I paid for. Now it has failed yet again. If I were to repair it this time, my repair costs would exceed my purchase price.
INTERFERES WITH WIRELESS NETWORK -- when on, it brought my wireless networking essentially to a stop. The microwave it replaced has slightly more power, and has no discernible effect on my wireless network. For now, I am going back to that.
BOTTOM LINE -- I'm going back to my older microwave, and if I really do miss having one this big will buy something other than a Panasonic.
Too bad about the problems, because I like the large size (for large baking dish, or defrosting a good-sized roast), and (when it works) it cooks well. I just cannot see paying $60 or so per year to have it fixed (not to mention the inconvenience).
I'm SCARED to buy this
Based on the reviews I've read here, I am scared to buy this appliance! Based on the reviews I've read on other microwaves, I'm scared to buy ANY microwave!
It appears that QUALITY and LONGEVITY are not priorities of ANY manufacturer. I think they want you to buy a new (anything electronic) every year or two. Sorry (appliance manufacturer) - I'm not going there.
I don't have that kind of disposable income.
We have had two similar Panasonic ovens and I would be VERY concerned with durability on this one.
I have to note that I do not own this particular model. Models change from year to year, and the limitation of Amazon reviews is that they tend to be made by new owners.
Based on my experience with two predecessors to this oven, however, I want to leave potential buyers with a caveat:
The first lasted barely a year before it died: the oven stopped heating, and the timer was messed up.
Because we liked the large size and other features, we purchased the next year's model. This one lasted four years, but this morning it died the same death--would only set for a few seconds, generated no heat during that time.
Our previous microwaves (Quasar and Sharp) lasted for over ten years, and based on the similar symptoms on the two Panasonic models, I just wanted to caution buyers that this may not be the best oven available.
