Panasonic Microwaves Reviews

Yesterday, while warming my baby’s milk, a sudden spark with a small fire occurred in the turning coupling area beneath the glass plate. The incident was severe enough to break the bottom part of the glass turntable. It was quite frightening, especially as we have a family with small children at home. This is the first time we have experienced anything like this. We previously used a Samsung microwave for over ten years without any issues, so this incident has raised concerns about the safety of Panasonic microwaves.

I purchased solo series NN- ST266B Panasonic microwave. As a single user, everything was going well until yesterday 12/05/2026. The microwave was in fire yesterday. It was in vapor clean mode. A big tragedy would have happened, and my whole flat would be blazed. Luckily, I was there and extinguished the fire on time. Again, the metal body of this microwave got rusted too. I have attached some clips of the damage. Safety of this equipment is zero. Why does Panasonic make such cheap things for us? I had recommended this product to a friend, but now I won't recommend any Panasonic brand.

If you want a total piece of crap, you need this. The automatic select is horrible and the child lock is mind-numbing... I am so sorry I bought this and cannot get any help from the manufacturer after numerous attempts.

I bought Model NN-SC73LS after researching several brands. It was a higher end model too. I’ve only had it a little over 2 years and the coating on the base under the tray is already peeling and the coating on the interior walls is tarnishing and losing its sheen and smoothness. It is very disappointing. It was not cheap by any means and I am having to purchase another one. It replaced my last one of another brand because my son burnt macaroni and I could not get the smell out though it still worked.

Adam did a splendid job of hunting out possible sources for a copy of the manual. I would come back to him any time. The only reason for 4 stars rather than 5 is that we were not successful on this occasion at finding what we were looking for in a reasonable space of time. I cannot fault Adam's expertise and readiness to dig in and try other solutions.

Review: I purchased the Panasonic NN-CD87KS microwave along with its trim kit to install neatly into my cabinet. From day one, the microwave constantly tripped my breaker and never worked properly. After years of frustration, I contacted Panasonic and was asked to send the unit back. Their evaluation confirmed it could not be repaired, yet they only offered me a depreciated refund even though the product was defective from the start. Worse, the trim kit I bought specifically for this microwave is now worthless, and Panasonic refuses to compensate me for it. This has been an extremely disappointing experience and I would not recommend Panasonic microwaves to anyone.

Purchased a Panasonic Microwave Oven Model No. NN-ST676S from Amazon. The power level timer joint function is inoperable. Based on good reviews of Panasonic microwave ovens, I sought out their product in smaller size. Error in judgment in hindsight. Steer clear of the product.

We had the microwave for less than 2 years. I tried to melt butter today and is sounded funny and began smoking after only 20 seconds. No direct customer support contact info. Definitely will never by another Panasonic microwave. Lesson learned.

I bought a PANASONIC inverter microwave for our daughter and 8 months later it caught fire and filled the house full of smoke. Had nobody been paying attention it would have burned the house down. I threw the receipt away months ago and our son-in-law threw the microwave in the dump after he put the fire out. $175 down the drain.
