Quality Brand
I bought this microwave a few years ago, and have used it countless times since. I opted for a high-power unit, and it has definitely exceeded my expectations. I am a believer in the Panasonic brand name from my experience through the decades, and I now have some Panasonic sound equipment on the way to replace another company's inadequate unit.

No back light for numeric pad. Difficult to press numbers because one can’t see the numbers. Child lock is a NIGHTMARE! No way to cancel this feature when one does not children in the home.

Response from Staples :
Hello there! Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the keypad visibility and child lock feature have caused frustration, that’s certainly not the experience we aim to provide. We understand how important ease of use is in the kitchen, and your comments highlight areas we can improve. We recommend pressing the following buttons to disable child lock: please press Turbo Defrost, and then Timer and then Popcorn. We truly appreciate you taking the time to let us know what didn’t work for you, and your input will be shared with our product development team as we continue refining our designs.

Very good.......But
The unit works very well. Cooks evenly. The biggest negative issue is the control panel. The buttons are hard to read. They are dim and small on a dark background. The whole panel is dark and needs a back light of some kind.

Sleek and efficient
Loving this new microwave . It is sleek and heats up food very quickly. So far it’s been very durable and gives a lot of options. The only thing I don’t like is the lock button.

A Microwave Upgrade
Beyond grateful for this opportunity to review this product! It was a major upgrade from our original B&D microwave and is much bigger! It comes with a lot of functional options and I like that it is spacious enough to keep our microwave cover on whatever is getting reheated. It reheats very nice and evenly and has alot of power in it. Nothing about the product seems ch...

Efficient
The Panasonic 1250w countertop microwave with inverter technology is efficient. It has a great design. It does not take up a lot of countertop space. It is going to last me a few years. I would recommend it.

Amazing product
This microwave is unbelievable! The quality of food we heat up is so much better with this. You can actually SEE your food cooking (my son has microwave bacon daily lol). It’s easy to figure out, the only tricky thing is remembering to press 0 to unlock the door once your food is finished heating/cooking. 10/10!

Excellent microwave
Very happy with microwave. Works great, looks great. Exactly as I expected. Great and efficient service. All in all I would highly recommend this microwave to anyone looking for a compact high power unit that does a great job on anything you would ever think of cooking in a microwave, and even things you normally wouldn't.

Excellent Microwave with Innovative Features!
I recently got the Panasonic Cyclonic Inverter Microwave (Model NN-SN742B), and it has exceeded my expectations. The Cyclonic Inverter technology cooks food evenly and efficiently, which makes a noticeable difference compared to my old microwave. The design is sleek, and the 1.6 cubic foot capacity is perfect for family-sized portions.
