I think after cooking something for a while, leave the door open for a bit to let all the steam out. Then shut it later.

Wish they just had a dial rather than all the fathing about with buttons and a display
Far easier just turning the dial to 2 minutes and ping!

The real question is
Is it stainless inside or is it painted!

My local had this for £130 last week

Cheapest I can see online is £79.99 so that's why I snapped one up.

It's pretty nice, only thing I'd critise is the lead is shorter than our old one, so was a bit more fiddly getting it to the socket we used for the old microwave.

Looks like a bargain! which branch did you find it in? and was it one of the bigger Sainsburys that has a full range of electricals?

Might check my local again today, may have gone down in price but will get it priced checked at the till too, maybe they've put the wrong price on. I'm after one as ours is not heating up as well as it used too. Thanks op

Would never buy Panasonic microwave, Had one, bust 3 times in a year, First time after 1 month. Terrible customer service.

You've been unlucky.
Panasonic microwaves are THE BEST.
and I say this as a fact not opinion,go ask anyone who knows about white appliances.

Parents have had one for years...No issues.

Was it an inverter type like in this deal or a cheaper budget model?

I have a Panasonic inverter microwave I've now owned for several years & still going strong. The only thing I would say although this is a 1000W combi model it doesn't seem to heat food so quickly as the Sharp 800W normal rotary microwave I have.

Had mine nearly two years now and can recommend it. Paid a lot more than £45.

It works like this...

Press power setting to choose wattage.

High 950w
Med 600w
Low 400

Etc

Then you turn the dial for the time u want to cook then press start. Also has a simple child lock on it too which is handy.

Inside its power coated of some sort.

I presume it isn't stainless steel inside as I'm sure metal would cause all sorts or sparks ;-)

We have a delonghi one with a dial I got it about 15 years ago, the dial on that stop working properly almost straight away where it seems not to respond so well when turning, like it doesn't register the time you are setting it for, you have to slow the turning for it to register.

Our one is stainless inside so that doesn't cause sparking. It's funny I think I read somewhere that actually it is ok to have certain metal objects in microwave and doesn't cause sparking so I tried it one time with a piece of cutlery it was ok but things like foil are a nightmare.
Oh also this delonghi has a grill but that has never worked either..

I'ta a pretty large store. Sells tvs, etc... But not as big as some tescos

Amazingly you can have a roasting rack in one of these without it sparking.

Had similar one to this. Rusty inside after 12 months and had to throw it. When I complained the person said it was because we didn't leave the door open when not cooking. Who does this??? Would NOT recommend.

opencube to suzhayes

4 Feb 17 1 #24

Was it a Panasonic?

The one we are replacing is a Sharp one we have that went rusty in the door inside.

Lasted 9 years so not bad going

It will go rusty if you don't clean up spills and the spill gets cooked over and over again!

None in Sheffield Archer Road - was there earlier, specifically to look at microwaves.

Yep. If my microwave is a bit steamy after cooking I leave the door ajar to let it dry out. :smile:

I popped into the Dunstable store today where I got mine, and it looks like they have sold out.

They did have this one at a discounted price if anyone wanted to look at this as an alternative...

Reduced from £70 to £50.

Think that's normally a little cheaper than the nn-sd271. It's only 800w non-inverter rather than 950w inverter and white rather than stainless.

Is this only in dunstable? Or have others seen it?

Panasonic customer service. They just kept insisting on getting the local repair guy to have it in so was without it for couple of weeks at a time. Should have been replaced. It was a £200+ combi oven.

crazylegs

4 Feb 17 #31

Sounds like you should have gone and got a decent one!

crazylegs

4 Feb 17 #32

Like I said n my previous post turn the dial and ping..Done..
No messing about selecting power settings etc etc

Oh and my last microwave was stainless inside and out, they don't rust like the painted inside ones do after 12 months or more

Alternatively you can set the memory to a power and predefined time (say 950w and 1 minute). Then just press memory button and start, easy! If you need more than 1 minute then turning the dial whilst cooking increases it in 1 minute increments.

Just replaced a Samsung (failed twice in 12 months) with this and generally happy. Very quiet, cooks quickly and light inside good but the dial feels a little scratchy (though more accurate than the knackered Samsung one!).

ahhh damn it, i paid so much for this a couple months back. But i got it within a few hours with amazon now lol. Excellent microwave, wanted to go bigger but this is perfect, top of the line in a small package.

A true bargain,Panasonic microwave ovens are the best in business,this price is a steal.

Steviebaby to Tequila

5 Feb 17 #38

True, but really, in your opinion, no, not in your opinion, in absolute FACT, which brand of microwave oven do you consider to be the best? By the way, I'm looking for fact not opinion here. Thanks

£45 for this microwave is an absolute bargain

greycounciller

5 Feb 17 #41

Is a bargain, but as I use microwave heavily over the years, I've had 3 Panasonics all fail within about 2 years. Currently using a Sharp cheapy which has been going strong with no let up for the past 3 years.

Splodger101 to greycounciller

5 Feb 17 #43

Same here too. Had several Panny microwaves that have failed over the years.. invertor etc...Current one is 3 years old and still going strong.

Good microwave, although the lack of a number pad makes setting duration pretty frustrating.

Kulaak to weiran

5 Feb 17 1 #44

If it works anything like my Panny then it's very simple by a twist of the dial. Most items you put in a microwave are under 30 mins & it doesn't take much twisting to get to that.

Also give a quick wipe down to remove moisture with kitchen roll

Have one of these - broke after 11 months. Repaired under warranty. Our previous Panasonic lasted 15 years. The quality of the newer ovens is nowhere near as good as the older ones. Plenty of comment elsewhere on t'internet.

Picked one up yesterday, seen it last week but checked it out first. Yet to try it. Argos price of £134.99 looks ready to be halved, making it around usual selling price. Not as substantial as the 30-year old Sharp it's replacing as I carried it with one hand. Another nice thing was at the checkout, won 5000 Nectar points :smiley:

How do you find out if there is stock in store? Is there a specific number to call? As i called the helpline and told me its discontinued.
