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.

Plenty of reheat presets
There’s many reasons to love this microwave. From the roomy size inside, the countless reheat options to the child safety lock. Btw it’s easy to disable and reapply if needed/wanted. It has 11 power settings so again, the reheating capabilities are available. The setup was super easy and all I had to do was simply plug it in. A plus for me was having the vents on the le...

Sleek look, works well. Child safety lock included
I love the sleek look of this microwave. The one I received is white. The front glass window is large so it's easy to view what you have inside.
The microwave is very well made. It is sturdy. I like that there is very little set up. You just plug it in and it's ready to use. So far we haven't had to do any maintenance.

Good cooker
Nice product, not designed for a location where there is no direct light on the front as the numbers on the front as dark and not back lit. The unit works fine, has an interior light to see product and when the door is opened so can see to clean.

This compact microwave has a few functionalities that our old MW didn’t have:
1. sensor reheat, which lets the MW sense how long food has to be reheated without having to input a duration. I tried with chunky soup and it exploded before the MW stopped heating. To be fair, that functionality is not supposed to work on liquids.

Clean sleek design
I previously had a Panasonic microwave and it lasted for many years. The door finally was faulty so I decided to get a new one. This white design has a very sleek and clean look. It comes with child lock but you could easily disable it. It has all the functions you need and the smooth design makes cleaning easy. It’s a very powerful microwave and you can easily adjust t...

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.

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.

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.
