Our microwave was delivered and installed on 6/28, it worked for twenty minutes. On 7/3 the repairman came to fix it, he ordered parts. On 7/18 he returned with parts, however, the microwave is still in parts on the kitchen floor, numerous calls to everyone concerned with it (Whirlpool, Lowes, the installers, and an 'authorized' repair facility) and have garnered only apologies. I believe this was an item that needed more research before purchase. So as the title says, beautiful to look at because that's all we can do, and actually since it's in parts on the kitchen floor, it isn't even that.
(ASIDE) The Whirlpool folks were particularly apologetic, it seemed as though they were trained to say, "I'm sorry and there's nothing we can do.", as they managed this in a pleasant, polite, and smarmy manner.

G.E. PVM2070SMSS PVM2070SMSS Microwave Oven Review

We got this as part of the Profile set to match our range/oven. It has some great features, like a push display, and a boost feature to REALLY get some air OUT! Love that. But when I went to push the button for the vent, the whole button panel behind the stainless steel moved back- I broke something. The repair guy just left after telling me I had broken the processor assembly which costs $500+ to replace, and then there's labor. So we're looking at $750 to get a new one? I don't think so. I'll just get a different stainless steel microwave with better reviews!

Sharp R-410LW Carousel 1-2/5-Cubic-Foot Family-Size Microwave Oven, White Review

Because I have an existing trim kit, getting a particular size is extremely important to me. Unfortunately, Sharp keeps changing its models. Fortunately, this one not only fits perfectly, but it has more features than the last one. And, it is less expensive. And, it works faster. The good: fast, attractive, lots of features, big. The bad: nothing really, except my wife wishes the buttons were slightly larger. I think microwaves are one of the few products that get better and cost less with time. Highly recommended.

With a 1-2/5-cubic-foot capacity and 1100 watts of power, this family-size microwave oven provides quick and easy meal preparation. The unit's 14-1/8-inch-diameter turntable ensures even heating, while 16 automatic settings take the guesswork out of reheating, cooking, and defrosting by automatically setting cooking times and power levels. Four defrost options quickly defrost meats and poultry by weight; six cook options come in handy for baked potatoes, fresh and frozen vegetables, rice, ground meat, and frozen entrees; and six reheat options make it especially simple to reheat items like beverages, pizza, rolls, and muffins. In addition, short-cut options make it convenient to melt, soften, and warm popular foods such as butter and cream cheese. The microwave oven also provides Minute Plus, which sets the oven at "high" with a single touch, and a popcorn key that pops microwave popcorn automatically, regardless of package size or brand. Other highlights include touch-pad controls, a five-digit two-color lighted display, and a handy kitchen timer. The microwave oven measures 17-1/2 by 21-5/8 by 12-3/8 inches.

Panasonic NN-H965WF, 2.2cuft 1250 Watt Sensor Microwave Oven, White Review

Panasonic NN-H965WF, 2.2cuft 1250 Watt Sensor Microwave Oven, White

After several years of fantastic service, our GE microwave caught fire. (Upon further research we found we were lucky it had not done so sooner, but it cooked to perfection while it worked.) I read reviews for the Panasonic NN-H965WF 2.2 cu. ft. microwave and decided to purchase it. I was really looking forward to having a large oven. However, I have been very disappointed in its performance. First, it takes much longer to cook foods,or even heat water, for that matter, than any other microwave we have owned. Also, the auto popcorn setting either undercooks or burns the popcorn. The auto sensor cooking does a poor job. In short, I have used cheap microwaves of much less power in offices and other places that out perform this machine. Also, placing the glass plate correctly in position can take a bit of time. By "time" I mean seconds, but much longer than I have ever experienced with other machines and when one is trying to cook in a hurry, having to fuss with the plate is irritating. And speaking of time, the clock and other readings are not very clear. The background with the unlit portions of the digital read-out shows so brightly that there is not much contrast between it and the lit numbers. In short, I wish I had purchased a different microwave and would not recommend this one to a perspective buyer.

With a 2-1/5-cubic-foot capacity and 1250 watts of power, this full-sized microwave oven provides quick and easy meal preparation. The unit's automatic 16-1/2-inch turntable ensures even heating, while its one-touch sensor cooking adjusts power levels and calculates cooking times automatically, making reheating and cooking a variety of foods easier than ever. A pulsing delivery of very low microwave power keeps food temperature at a constant level--without overcooking; the improved keep-warm menu now includes five items, so foods like stew, gravy, and desserts remain warm in the oven until they're ready to be served.
In addition, the microwave's menu-action screen adds to the overall convenience. It scrolls step-by-step cooking instructions across the display in English, Spanish, or French, while the function key simplifies the programming of 10 useful, non-cooking functions. Just press the function key and the menu-action screen will display the steps necessary to complete the desired function. Other highlights include Inverter Turbo Defrost for thorough defrosting, a push-button control panel, 10 power levels, five multi-stage cooking options, and more/less control, as well as a popcorn key, Quick Minute, delay start, a timer, and auto reheat. The microwave oven measures 19-7/16 by 23-7/8 by 14 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Panasonic Prestige NN-SD688S, 1.2cuft 1300 Watt Sensor Microwave Oven, Stainless Steel Review

Panasonic Prestige NN-SD688S, 1.2cuft 1300 Watt Sensor Microwave Oven, Stainless Steel

Overall this is an excellent microwave, but with a few caveats:
1)I had read other reviews regarding the unreadability of the display on this and similar Panasonic microwaves, but didn't fully appreciate the problem until it was set up on my counter top. The display is unreadable above 45 degrees from the horizontal, which means that at arm's length to operate the controls, you must bend over to see the display. My solution, which was to build a stand to raise the top of the microwave up to the bottom of the cabinets, made the display high enough to be (barely) readable while standing up, but is probably not acceptable to a lot of people. Panasonic should have caught this in testing and provided a flip-up display that could be adjusted to the installation.
2)Also as mentioned in some of the other reviews, the door release button requires so much force (at least when new) that the unit will skid across the counter-top unless you hold it with your other hand. Mine is mounted in the corner, where it has some stability, but it is still marginal.
3)This unit replaced a Panasonic in which the touch-pad controls died, and the buttons here are indeed logical and have a good solid feel to them.It does take some time to learn programming without a touch-pad, but that shouldn't be an overall issue in your decision.
4)Panasonic could do themselves a favor by better explaining the benefits of the terms Turbo, Inverter, and Sensor, as this microwave indeed performs very, very well after you get over some of the other problems.
