Summary : Panasonic NNK105 Compact Dial Microwave
Microwaves come in all shapes and sizes, but the true value of the microwave is often under-estimated in the modern and traditional kitchen. This model has a very powerful 1.1kw grill element which I first tried out on traditional cheese on toast. As a busy professional who requires meals fast I was impressed with the quality and substance of such a simple meal, it was just like the "old-fashion" grill under the oven, but faster.This product is stylish, compact and fits with the decor of most kitchens. I look forward to cooking something more adventurous in the near future and will certainly see how well it performs on pork chops which the manufacturer claims can be roasted in 18 mins, that will be a "god-send" I am absolutely delighted by the speed of delivery from amazon.

Summary : Really good value for money and extremely useful.....
When my last microwave oven died I was in a desperate hurry to replace it. I looked everywhere for a full sized microwave oven and could not find one. I found this particular oven. It is large enough to defrost or cook large item, but I really hesitated before buying it. It had too many other functions associated with it for my taste. How could something possibly be a good microwave oven, a good grill and a good convection oven? In the end I bought this product only because of its size. However, it proved itself to be completely invaluable at the first big holiday meal. It is a good grill and a good convection oven (make sure it is fully preheated BEFORE use), as well as being a large, powerful microwave. I am so glad that I purchased this particular oven, and I highly recommend it to anyone. I have had my oven for nearly 1.5 years now. I have no complaints.

Summary : An excellent microwave
I bought this microwave to replace my old fashioned basic microwave/grill, and it is fantastic. It has microwave, grill and convection oven functions, and I use all of them. I only have a single oven in my kitchen, so this really helps when I need two ovens for a complicated meal.
The other function I really like is the 'Chaos Defrost'. This function means you select the category of your frozen item, then enter in the weight, and the microwave calculates the defrost time and does it for you. It really works - defrosting things without cooking the edges.
I noticed that the slightly bigger version (which I wanted, but it wouldn't fit on the worksurface) which has two shelves, is listed in Feb 06 Good Food magazine, as one of the five examples of microwaves out at the moment. They list the 'Chaos Defrost' as particularly helpful.

Summary : Not impressed
I bought this microwave combination oven in August 2004 to replace my beloved 15 year old Sharp microwave combination oven. What a difference in quality! Firstly, the oven never seemed to reach the correct temperature. Now, the LCD display has packed up after a power cut. I've checked reviews on the web and I see I am not alone in having exactly these problems. It did cook great baked potatoes, but I wont be rushing out to buy a Sharp combi oven again.

Summary : Nice Microwave, a little noisy
This microwave is an excelent microwave. The auto-defrost mode is excellent as you can decide what type of meat or bread you are defrosting and how much power you should defrost it with depending on how frozen the food is. The only down side is that it is quite noisy meaning that the usual hum of the microwave is much louder that usual, but if you want auto-cooked, auto-defrosted and auto reheated food then this is a good microwave made by the incomparible Panasonic.

Summary : Good value for money
We bought this as we wanted a reasonably priced stainless steel microwave to fit in with look of the kitchen - and the previous microwave was many years old.
I regard Sharp as a good brand and the build quality is fine. I can operate it easily and all the basic and some esoteric functions are there and work very well. Needless to say, it comes very well packed with all the required information.
The only reason that I marked it down to 4* is that we had to buy an anti-slip mat as it moved to easily on the worksurface where it sits.
So if you want a good looking stainless steel microwave that works reliably, with the build quality associated with a well known brand name then give this a try.

Summary : Great combination oven from Panasonic
I chose this oven after extensive research, as I was disappointed with my previous Sharp combination oven.
The Panasonic has proved to be excellent. The microwave function is powerful and the Chaos defrost works quickly and evenly. The oven even prompts you to turn the food!
My big test of an oven is Yorkshire puddings, and both small and large puddings come out beautifully risen and crisp outside on convection only. Cakes also bake well.
The grill is also very quick, although you do have to move items around to get even browning.
Convection, microwave and grill can all be used independently or in various combinations, including "turbo bake" - all 3 at once!
The controls are easy to use - the only minor point to remember is that if you enter a time without selecting a function, you get microwave full power. There are plenty of programmes for specific dishes, although I haven't tried these yet, and standing times are included in these.
There are several accessories with the oven, including high and low circular racks, and two shelves, one wire and one solid. The solid one has proved really useful as a baking tray, for oven chips, heating sausage rolls etc. There are also a glass plate, a metal plate and a spatter guard for cooking fatty items. You do have to remember to use the glass plate only for microwaving, and put the metal plate over it for other cooking functions.
The oven capacity is not the largest available, but by using the accessories supplied I have been able to fit in all my dishes easily.
A great all-round combination cooker, suitable for both keen cooks and people who like convenience.
