Microwave ovens come in a multitude of shapes and sizes but all have the same basic function: to reheat or cook your food. Nowadays, everyone has a microwave oven in their kitchen, whether it is a countertop, built in or over the range. There are some microwave ovens which come at affordable prices and provide great results in terms of cooking your meals or reheating a variety of food. If you are trying to find a good quality microwave that can achieve these results, we recommend the Panasonic NN-SN651WAZ , a countertop built-in microwave oven which is available on the market at $128.29. The Panasonic microwave oven comes with great features, such as the Inverter technology and the defrost feature. If you are interested in learning about these features and much more, read the following information below.

Design

The Panasonic is a countertop built-in microwave, which means that it can be placed on a counter or be integrated into your furniture with the help of a matching trim kit. It is recommended to use it as a built-in microwave because it will take less space. Also, this microwave oven features a stainless steel design which makes it a great acquisition for your kitchen, if you plan to enhance the surrounding decor. This stainless design with silver touches is very popular among customers, so if you already have other appliances with the same design, it will match with your existing appliances, thus making the microwave oven seem almost unnoticeable.

It weighs only 25-1/2 pounds, the oven’s interior is about 14-3/8 inches long by 13-15/16 inches wide by 9-15/16 inches high and its compact exterior measures 15-13/16 inches long by 20-11/16 inches wide by 12-1/4 inches high. This is an ideal microwave oven for those of us who are always on the go because it can cook or heat foods in a very short time. According to customer reviews, in order to change the power level, you have to press the Power button for more than 8 times, which can be quite inconvenient. Also, some customers have reported that the alert/reminder system is poorly designed. After finishing its cycle, the alarm will beep for just a couple of times.

Features

Panasonic NN-SD681S features the Inverter technology which means that your food will cook evenly at a normal temperature and microwave power. This way, your food will taste and look infinitely better. Below you will find one of the most notable features:

• Inverter Turbo Defrost – The technology uses the inverter continuous-power delivery method which means that this feature allows you to defrost foods in a short period of time. Moreover, the Inverter Melt soften option is designed to help you soften various foods such as chocolate, butter, cream cheese and even ice cream
• High Energy Power – A great feature of using this microwave oven consists of his (1200 watt). This allows you to cook or reheat your food faster than with some traditional microwave ovens which have 900-watt power. For example, steaming vegetables and heating beverage will take approximately 1-2 minutes less than with other microwave ovens
• Child Lock Option – This option is a feature that we highly appreciate. For safety measures, the electronic operation will be blocked. You just have to press the Start button for 3-4 times to lock or press Stop/Reset to cancel the process.

Convenience

The one-touch sensor cook and reheat allow you to adjust power levels and automatically calculate cooking time for a variety of foods. Therefore, you can easily set up the power and time duration needed for different types of foods, so you can ensure that your meal is cooked properly, according to taste. The sensor is capable of estimating the amount of steam that has been produced while cooking while sending signals to the microprocessor which can make a fair estimation of the cooking time left and the power time. Moreover, the 4-digit neon blue LED screen displays the results so you will know at what cooking stage is currently your food. A great convenience feature is the clock and timer features and the push button door and release. These features will make the entire experience more comfortable.
