I bought this is a replacement for a similar model that had stopped working after many years of loyal service. I've only had it a week and I'm generally happy with it. I've dropped a star because my favourite auto-program has changed :-( The combi-programme for baked potatoes used to be based on the weight of the potato, so I could quite easily cook 1 potato, the new programme has a minimum weight of 400g which going off an average weight is a minimum of two potatoes. I know this is a minor point in the overall scheme of things, but it was a programme I used a lot and was very happy with. I haven't used all the new functions yet and they may make up for change in the baked potato programme.

Bought this model to replace our previous Panasonic combination microwave which had given 33 years sterling service. Love the new black sleek design and flatbed operation compared to previous rotating style. Easy to understand programme buttons and same great efficient grill/micro/bake/defrost capability. New model slightly smaller volume inside but has 2 shelves and good quality tray/rack supplied. Very happy with it, and hope it last as long as its predecessor!

Very versatile with a plethora of functions and combinations so easy to use and no need to use many different appliances to achieve the desired results.

If you are looking for something that works as well as a conventional oven or replaces one then you should buy this. It works well in all functions such as microwave, oven, grill. A wire rack, a glass tray and enamel tray are included. It doesn't have fancy featues such as air frying or butter melting so don't buy this if it is something that it important to you. The two level cooking is really useful especially if you batch cook, bake or just want to cook more than one thing. It is also big enough to fit big pans without long handles which is useful. There are a lot of auto programmes and some are more useful than others. It is easy to clean as it self cleans at the back and top. Only the sides and bottom need to be cleaned and as it is stainless steel this is not a problem. There is no ring or turntable to clean and this gives much more space when cooking. The door is dark so the door has to be opened when checking food. Having to use the button for times (and quantities for auto) rather than having a dial and the higher price (in comparison to other combination microwaves) is why I can't give this full marks.

I very much like my Panasonic 31 litre microwave combi oven because of its versatile. It has so many differing means of cooking. As a carer it helps me with my daily cooking challenges. I like the easy means of programming the various means of cooking. The control panel is intuitive. I would have loved to have given 5 stars but am disappointed with the microwave's body construction is slightly below the high standard I expect of Paanasonic. The top of the oven has not been manufactured completely flush along its top edge with its closed door.

Excellent combination microwave, nice bug oven with two shelves. Looks really nice and stylish on worktop. Would recommend.

Pleased with my purchase fulfills our requirements.

Lots of cooking options but complicated to understand and this is my second Panasonic combination oven. Easy to use with basic commands, Microwave = Microwave Oven = Oven. Otherwise 5 *
