I love this microwave, but the flatbed has cracked and seems to have a sma hole in it …..what has happened and what should I do, we have only had it about 3 months
Well done sir, I bought a Panasonic combi microwave after watching one of your videos, I knew how to use it before it arrived. It made using it very simple. Keep up the good work.
Is the oven fan assisted ?, informative video, bought one and it’s excellent.?thanks
Wish I had seen your video a year ago when I bought mine. Your instructions are so easy follow and I will use all the functions much more in future! Thank you.
My older Panasonic combi microwave was easier to use for baked potatoes. You weighed your spud, put it in the micro, inputted the weight, pressed on, and it baked it for the correct pre programmed time. Easy, and perfect results every time as they say.
Now this new model. No baked potato programme. Put your spud in. Er, press grill, which prompts you to then select micro, er, then you guess how long it will take to bake your potato, set your guessed time, and good luck.
BRILLIANT Review, well done, and thank you
That was cool
When using the oven funtion can you use say a cake tin or would it have to be some other kind of dish?? And is it possible to slow cook using say a dutchoven?
Hi! I recently bought one of these from another supplier, and it seems like the interior light doesn’t come on. Am I meant to pull a tab somewhere or is the bulb broken? Thanks in advance!
It works grate as a oven, as a microwave so so its warm up food very unevenly. Build quality is poor, almost like a toy in comparison to older microwaves.
Could someone please tell me how to clean the grill elements after they got spattered with food, it wasn’t cleaned immediately as wasn’t noticed – now baked black spots which smoke when using the grill – Thanks
The dial is ackward and makes cleaning the exterior more difficult.
Excellent explanation ! Thanks a lot! Best regards! 👍👌❤
Piece of crap, bought yesterday, today (first oven usage after the "20minutes burn in") the bulb cracked, the fuse in the house out and here we go with Panasonic "quality". Returning this heavy crap that looks so good on the paper after the weekend.
Also the "child lock" is laughable, can not be used during cooking and allows kids to alter the time of cooking by simple rotating the button – very "useful" and clearly designed by someone who (luckilly for all the humanity) does not have kids.
Overall – huge disapoinment by Panasonic made in China.
It seems the door is not see through while cooking. Is it?
Can’t get crispy skin jacket potatoes any suggestions please?
Excellent explanation, thanks a lot! Kind regards! 👍👌❤
Would this microwave be suitable for steamed hams?
Thinking of buying a DF386 and think I read somewhere that because of the many comments about the grill not being easy to clean, the grill is now covered. Is this correct or is it on a more recent or different model? I also note comments about the earlier models having a metal tray, metal grid and glass tray – I think the CF873 but cannot find this anywhere so presume it’s now been replaced with newer model. Can you clarify? Very good video and nicely presented. Thank you.
Great video – really useful. Only comment I’d have is that you showed what pre-heating the oven looked like but didn’t display what the display showed once it reached the desired heat. Otherwise, great video to show the functions.
Fingers crossed my roast lamb goes well…. our normal oven isn’t working as well as it could!
I had a combination unit about twenty five years ago and I am sorry that I got rid of it when I moved house. The thing that surprised me was the large metal rack for use when combined cooking. A great company.
Nice review, I think this is ok for the money but sadly previous generation NN-CF778S was superior in many ways. It came with a pyrex tray and the grill rack slid in like the metal tray in this which it had as well rather than the aukward floor standing one which prohibits the use of both it and the metal tray together. Also the glass pyrex tray could be positioned below the grill rack to catch dripping which was one up from cleaning it off the base. The controls were more tactile and it had a fantastic whole chicken auto cook program which gave a roast chicken using combination cooking in 45 minutes on the pyrex dish. I have not seen any of the newer range do this and I have this oven in the review and the larger steaming one neither of which matched the NN-CF778S. I owned three of the NN-CF778S and it was produced for 10 years and still looks good. I have one left now that works and dread the day it packs up!
Panasonic are probably leaning towards today’s buyer who is more interested in simpler automatic cooking of fillets rather than joints. The previous didn’t have ‘sensor cooking’. Chicken on the bone must be something of a niche food group these days!
Silly question, but is grill one or three the highest setting?
really good review thanks a lot i already ordered this microwave still waiting for delivery 📦, greetings from Berlin 😎
Love your skillful and informative presentation
Good but more like users manual
Can this air fry ?
