NN-SV79MS 1.4 cu.ft Smart Inverter Works with Alexa Countertop Microwave Oven 1200Watt Power with Genius Sensor Cooking, Stainless Steel

Have found Panasonic microwaves to work well. This microwave is a high powered microwave. Fortunately, first choice on the user interface is to set the cooking power level. I find I heat food at half power most of the time. Food comes out evenly heated. Reducing the power level reduces the amount of energy delivered, instead of cycling the magnetron on/off as less expensive microwaves do. IMHO, this leads to better cooking. Liquids can be heated quickly using full power. Integration with Alexa was straightforward. Don't use Alexa to control the microwave all of the time, but it's a convenient feature. For an older or visually challenged person it's an excellent feature to have. User interface is intuitive. Never pulled the manual. Just started using it. User interface shows pre-programmed food specific choices. This is a welcome change from former model I owned. Door lock requires two button pushes after cooking. New child-safety feature. I understand the reasons, but it takes some getting used to.

The microwave works great. it connected to Alexa upon set up. She worked immediately. Upon giving Alexa a cooking command. I was skeptical it would work well but it surprised me. I need the ability of Alexa to control the microwave. that is why I got it. It is an expensive microwave. I got a great price on Prime day. It is worth the money. for anyone blind or has low vision. since most microwaves are flat panels. that have to be marked. this microwave has no number pad like a traditional one. it has 6 push buttons and a turn dial. it is a really nice microwave. it is a taller microwave. then my last Panasonic. My last Panasonic was accessible too. Accessibility is an important factor. Manufactures should keep in mind. It is a wonderful microwave. Just got it. Hopefully it will last long time. My last Panasonic lasted 9 years.

I am downgrading my recommendation to a one star. Do not, do not , do not buy this. Unless you love conversations with Alexa. Dealing with the child lock feature is a nightmare. Every time we have a power blink (and unfortunately we live in an area prone to this) not only the clock needs resetting but the automatic child lock. My wife hates the dark interior, its designed for people that wan to ignore spills, they are hard to see. Interior is also smaller than our old microwave, the dimensions provided are misleading. The autosensor is a joke as well, if you rely on it you either have food blow up or cold. I may put a sledgehammer one day on this and then I have to buy a new one, but not a Panasonic. Too many settings and controls. You need to have the book close by if power goes off or if you accidentally lock it, there is nothing intuitive about which buttons to press toe get it back working. Also interior is black, so hard to see any splashes (is it aimed at people that just dont care about cleaning it?). I regret buying this. Had a Dacor that worked for 15+ years and was clear cut to use, also bigger inside, but they got now too expensive to replace.

Works well but the menu power/time settings are more complicated than needed. Fits in small space.

9.17.24 Note: microwave failed three weeks ago and is sitting at the Panasonic approved repair facility where it languishes unrepaired. Panasonic is supposed to get in contact with the repair facility as they replaced what was supposed to be the faulty part but didn’t fix the machine. To date, Panasonic has not returned their calls. For that reason I can no longer recommend this microwave. There may be some new product shock when setting up this microwave. The manual is fairly epic but thankfully is laid out well and makes sense. If you aren’t planning to use an Amazon smart speaker nor your phone then some features may be a button pushing mess. That is because there are a ton of features and the buttons/dial are fairly sparse. I like that, most of the buttons on most microwaves are of no use to me and on this microwave are available but require extra button combinations and pushes. I use the Alexa phone app and have been exceptionally pleased with how the app works and with how easily the microwave responds. If I’m reheating something I use it like a traditional microwave. It is nice to know however that more complex things can be done with it. Bottom line, if you dislike using voice activated control this microwave is probably not for you. For traditional use the interface is simple but effective. For traditional tasks this microwave will get the job done while offering many additional types of usage should you desire it.

Para que Alexa lo encuentre debes poner una dirección de estados unidos , no es tan inteligente para recalentar la comida de forma automáticamente y la mayor parte del tiempo debo girar para reducir la potencia de lo contrario se me ha quemado un par de cosas, sufre de su efectividad 30 segundos bastan para recalentar una rebanada de pizza , con un micro común eso nunca lo hubiera creído, era más grande de lo que imaginamos así que hubo que ajustar como acomodamos en la cocina, a menos que enlaces con Alexa te atoras con incrementos de 30 segundos y a veces lo que necesitas son 40 segundos. Pd en menos de un año se llenó de óxido ,constantemente se le tiene que quitar con limón.
