Amazon.com Review

Loaded with features, this combination microwave and convection oven provides a family with lots of cooking options at the touch of a button. The oven has a 1.5-cubic-foot interior, 1100 watts of power, and a 15-inch turntable. Its microwave performance is bolstered by technology that eliminates the "pulsing" of 100-percent power and idleness to achieve different power levels. This oven's features include a keep-warm key to prevent overcooking (great for soup, gravy, and desserts); "turbo" defrosting; a menu-action screen that can be set for English, Spanish, or French; "smart" cook and reheat capacities to adjust power levels and cooking times for various foods; a Quick Minute button for adding to preset cooking times; and a popcorn setting.

The convection oven performs as would a full-size oven, baking cakes and pies, roasting poultry and meats, cooking casseroles, and broiling burgers, fish, and steaks. The oven weighs 46 pounds. Its interior measures 16-1/4 inches wide, 9-1/2 inches high, and 16-3/4 inches deep. Its exterior measures 23-7/8 inches wide, 14-3/4 inches high, and 19-5/16 inches deep. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars Nicer than my old Sharp oven, October 8, 2002

This review is from: Panasonic NN-C980B 1.5-Cubic-Foot Microwave Convection Oven, Black (Kitchen)

I am really pleased with this microwave-convection oven. I bought it as a replacement for a Sharp microwave-convection oven which I had been using for the past eight years.
It is much quieter and more powerful than the Sharp model. You can barely hear it while using it in convection mode. The Sharp model sounded like it might explode at any minute.
I also like the ceramic turntable in this oven. The Sharp had an aluminum turntable. This one is much easier to clean and much quieter.

Amazon.com shipped this oven to me much quicker than their original expected shipping date. That made me happy, as I was looking forward to having my new oven.
I haven't used the oven in my electric range since purchasing my first microwave-convection oven. I would recommend it highly to anyone seeking a new baking or microwaving appliance.

I bought this Panasonic Microwave/Convection oven for my grandmother to replace an old Sharp micro/conv oven.
This unit is better in appearance and quality of workmanship fit and finish.
It is easier to program and this is a plus for my grandmother who is lo-tech.
I highly recommend this unit.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy and intuitive to operate, July 13, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Panasonic NN-C980W 1.5-Cubic-Foot Microwave Convection Oven, White (Kitchen)

This is the third convection microwave I have owned. This has so many useful and convenient features. All the auto cook programs perform flawlessly. However there are a few design flaws that keep me from giving this oven a five star rating. The turntable is ceramic. Not metal. One slip and I am afraid that I will smash it. Oven walls are stainless steel not Teflon as my previous oven had for easy cleaning. Once oven program is set, panel does not remind you what mode or power level it is on. Not terribly important feature however I miss it. When convection cooking only one tray can be cooked at one time. The others I have owned had racks that allowed two cake pans simultaneously. My biggest complaint and I know I'm nit picking, is that this convection oven cooks and bakes slow. It does cook evenly however the whole point of a convection oven is for food to cook faster than in a conventional oven. This definitely bakes and cooks slower than my regular gas oven.
