Panasonic Microwave Oven NN-SD67LS

The oven looks good with stainless steel and meets or exceeds my expectations cooking or reheating.

I chose this for the look. I love the knob and buttons. Luckily it doesn’t only look good but it works like a dream. The defrost function is better than on my last microwave. It heats up the food quite quickly and evenly. I was not sure how I felt about the dark interior but now that I have it I don’t mind at all, it doesn’t seem like something so far fetched I like it a lot. This is a definite recommend.

Starting acting up 6 months in. Timer will tick down but microwave isn’t running. Trying to get support from Panasonic is a hell loop, constantly clicking and being directed to another page that takes forever to load. Size is small. I have to turn over a casserole lid so the handle doesn’t hit the top. It also beeps like 5 mins after you’ve heated something. Just one random beep like it’s clearing the que. Also, the child lock is super annoying.

Easy to use

Love this microwave! I was very happy to see that it has a child safety lock.

Easy to use and very quiet for a microwave. Heats things evenly.

Got this to replace a similar Panasonic 900 watt microwave. Unfortunately, the 1100 watt model is disappointing. First, it is not more powerful than the 900. In fact, for simple things like heating a cup of liquid, it takes a few more seconds. (The 900 watt mv was slightly larger in size than this 1100 watt model and so I don’t understand this discrepancy on that basis either). The features were disappointing as well. I had really liked the knob feature on the 900. It had little soft clicks to mark increments and felt solid in the hand. The 1100 knob does not feel solid. It has a kind of loose feeling and doesn’t always stay on the setting where it’s left. Annoying. My old 900 watt had a quick cook feature of 60 seconds and the 1100 has a quick 30 seconds button. However, because the 1100 is not more powerful (and maybe less) I end up having to press that button multiple times, and ultimately, for a greater number of seconds than the 900 watt. I like the look of the 1100 watt a little more than my old 900, but it feels much cheaper. The door of the 1100 does not feel solid. It makes a loud sound when it is closed, presumably because there’s no sound dampening structure to it. It’s a very light weight door. I don’t use the special heating features so I can’t really speak on that. Overall, I am slightly disappointed with this Panasonic product. It is clearly a cheapened version of the older models like the 900 watt I had previously.

I bought this for my elderly father who needed his replacement microwave to be easy to use. This fit the bill. It was one of the few I could find that had a decent amount of power and a dial. All of the others that had a dial were much less powerful.
