The first and the foremost good point about this model is that its incredibly simple to operate this microwave. It won't take you more than 5 minutes to get hands on this microwave.
Though there are many features in this model of, I haven't used them yet. I am primarily using it for heating my food. The simplicity of its functions (buttons) are the ones I liked the most. For e.g. there are 2 separate buttons to set the time for which you want to heat the food. They are 10 Seconds button & 1 Minute button. Lets say if you want to heat the food for 30 seconds, just press the 10 Seconds 3 times. Or if you want to set the timer to 1 minute and 40 seconds, press 1 minute button once & then 10 seconds button 4 times. Thats it !!
I have used a couple of other brands' microwave in the past. It was never a simple task to heat the food on these models of microwave. I was able to heat the food only after fiddling with the different functions on them.
In a nutshell, its the best micorwave I have ever come across. Go and buy with confidence. You won't regret your decision.

So noisy it is unbearable. Apart from the noise of the fan which is loud the whole of the casing rattles and whines when running - it is far noisier than my dishwasher. I upgraded to a Panasonic from a cheaper make due mainly to the name, what a mistake. I have 3 other domestic microwave in work non of them top brands but are all silent in comparison to the Panasonic.
I really wish I hadn't dumped my old micro I would gladly swap!

Does everything it should and does it perfectly adequately. It had heavy use all over Christmas and new Year and if it goes on performing this well and lasts then it will have been an absolute bargain. It's probably a little "tinny" compared to more expensive models but the point is that it's easy to use and it works very well.
