Panasonic 0.9 Cu. Ft, 900W Compact Microwave Display Panel

Panasonic Microwave has a modern and stylish appearance and will look nice in any kitchen decor. It will not look out of place no matter what color is dominant in your kitchen. The large rectangular silver button at the bottom right, underneath the control panel is the door release button.

It is a decent quality microwave oven that runs quietly and gets the job done well- quick and relatively even heating and cooking. The interior is easy to clean as you can easily remove the 10.6-inch size turntable and wipe it properly. To use the 30 sec. function you need to press the Quick 30, then the Start button. And there is an interior light that turns on not when the door is opened but when the microwave is on. The large display at the front is quite bright and may glow in the dark like a nightlight if it is in your bedroom / dorm room.

Please also note that this is not a sensor type microwave that automatically sets the time based on the steam released by the food. But you can’t really expect this feature at such low price point and given that this microwave looks great, does quite a good job- quietly, quickly and efficiently and is built with good quality materials. And as an Energy Star rated microwave oven it will not use up much electricity and will save you on your energy bills.  Panasonic is a company that promotes healthier living and eating, being inspired by the Japanese culture of cooking tasty and healthy meals by their great quality touchpad kitchen appliances.
