After the Hubby and I moved in to a place without an Oven, I thought we were doomed to an eternity of Stove-Top cooking. Pizzas, Jacket Potatoes, Casseroles and the like were well and truly off the menu - until my wonerful parents surprised me with a Microwave as a birthday present. * * * My opinion of the Product * * * This is not just any old Microwave, it doesn't just 'nuke' your food, leaving it rubbery and insipid, it does pretty much everything except clean itself and wash the dishes. It Ovens, it Microwaves, it Grills and it 'Combi's' using alternating blasts of Microwave power and Oven heat, meaning you can cook a tasty jacket potato ...  Read the complete review

Four models are covered by the single manual for this product. The base model is the NN A554 with white enamel finish, NN A524, NN-A574 and the NN A514 the premium aluminium stainless steel finish. Having had good and long service from two previous Panasonic microwaves we opted for the A514 top of the range model. Sadly it deviated from the long standing procedures of entering power level or autoweight program and then entering weight. The 112 page manual does not set out alternative procedures clearly and what is needed is a simple step by step pull out card/s for each of the combined, convection, grill or microwave operations.

Recently I cleaned the microwave I had purchased when we moved into our rented house nearly 4 years ago and well I got a bit excited with the water and kitchen spray and when I next used our microwave I was greeted by a not very pleasant smell of burning and a light that wouldn't go off and a plate that wouldn't stop spinning until turned off at the wall! So yes I had murdered my microwave, well lets call it manslaughter and a replacement was needed. Our grill in our oven had also stopped working about a year ago so I decided that I would like to get a combination microwave as was starting to get severe withdrawal symptoms from cheese on ...  Read the complete review

I have a tiny tiny kitchen and had to search for a microwave that would fit into the tiny space I had available. I was very pleased when I came upon this slimline Panasonic NNA554W. Not only is it a micro wave but it is also has a combination oven. This model was especially designed for compact spaces. It has a 1.3kw quartz grill and fan assisted convection oven with a cool turbo bake, as well as a conventional microwave with 6 power levels. This micro wave also has a function called chaos defrost. The oven lining is hardwearing stainless steel. I find the oven looks great and is also very easy to clean but you must clean immediately because dried on stuff is a ...  Read the complete review
