Panasonic NN-SD997S Prestige 2.2 Cu-Foot 1250 Watt Microwave, Stainless Steel

Cheap Panasonic NN-SD997S Prestige 2.2 Cu-Foot 1250 Watt Microwave, Stainless Steel Review

After looking at many microwaves I ended up selecting this one and have been very pleased with the purchase.

The reasons I chose this one were:

1. The size..... It is quite large, which is just what I wanted.

2. The outer case...... It is stainless steel, which was important to me since the microwave is out in the open. I looked at many microwaves with stainless steel faces, but the body was just painted metal. Thus the stainless steel case was a big plus on this model, especially since it was at a price point similar to those without the stainless case.

3. The syle.... It was a nice looking unit, although this is completely subjective.

4. That it was Panasonic... I was replacing a Panisonic that was 30 years old. While I do not expect this to last 30 years, I was predisposed to like Panisonic because of my prior experience.

5. The features and functions... I was intrigued by the Inverter which claimed to cook the food evenly, but beyond that, the controls looked fairly straightforward and basic rather than being complicated.

Having used the microwave for a month I can say that all my expectations were met or exceeded. The size was perfect for my needs. The stainless steel was a beautiful finish and strong. I put things on top of the microwave and some I looked at had stainless steel cases that were quite flimsy. This case is quite strong and rigid. They say that the stainless is fingerprint resistant and so far it seems to be. I have no idea if this will last through the life of the machine, but it is a nice feature that keeps the microwave looking clean. Finally, the features are in fact easy to understand and use. The Inverter does seem to cook the food more evenly without the hot/cold spots that you sometimes get with microwave cooking. The one touch cook and reheat seems to work well most of the time, although sometimes it can overcook a little. Some have said that the "dial" for setting the time is difficult to get used to, but it really does not take much time to adjust to it and it seems to be a handy way to set the time.

I would recommend this to anyone, especially if any of the reasons I settled on this unit are important factors in their choice.
