Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Panasonic NN-T563SF 1.2-Cubic-Foot 1300-Watt MicrowaveCustomer Review: Sensor function does not work Summary: 1 Stars
Having owned a different Panasonic microwave model for over a year, I loved the sensor cook/reheat feature. When I went shopping for a slightly smaller unit in stainless steel that would physically and aesthetically fit in a cabinet shelf of my newly remodeled kitchen, I chose the Panasonic NN-T563SF. Unfortunately, the sensor function would not work on the first unit that was delivered. After selecting the desired sensor function and pressing Start, the microwave would run for a few seconds and then quit. The clock on the display would reset to blank (only the colon is displayed). I returned the unit to Amazon for a replacement. With the second unit, the sensor function would not turn off the microwave on its own. The sensor is suppose to detect the presence of steam emitted by the food being heated and then gauge how much longer it should cook before shutting off. Even when the cavity is so completely covered with steam that I could no longer see through the glass door, the oven would not shut off. I had to manually turn it off. So this unit is going back as well and, this time, I'm not requesting a replacement. I've always thought Panasonic made quality products but, apparently for the NN-T563SF, there was a lapse in engineering or manufacturing.By the way, Amazon has been great about all this. They get a 5-star rating for customer service. The replacement unit arrived three days after I notified them of the defect in the original unit. And returning the second defective unit was equally straightforward and hassle-free.
Description of Panasonic NN-T563SF 1.2-Cubic-Foot 1300-Watt MicrowaveThis 1.2-cubic-foot microwave oven from Panasonic is a mid-size, high-powered model with versatile, time-saving functions. At 1300 watts, the microwave has plenty of power, and the built-in Inverter technology lets you take advantage of all that juice. Instead of simulating lower power levels by firing at full force and then letting food sit, Panasonic's Inverter microwaves actually adjust power output for the full duration of cooking time. The result is more even cooking and minimal icy or hot spots. This oven also features Inverter turbo defrost for quicker and more consistent thawing. To complement the Inverter technology, the oven uses Genius One-Touch sensor cooking and reheat to automatically adjust power and time for up to 15 food categories. You simply put food inside, select the appropriate category, and hit "start." The oven?s sophisticated gauges sense when food is ready. Of course, you can also program the old-fashioned way by entering cooking time according to your recipes. Convenient features include prompter cues, a multilingual menu, and delay-start functionality. Panasonic also remembers the old stand-bys--popcorn, quick-minute, and keep-warm keys. With its stainless-steel finish and reflective door, the microwave is a stylish notch above its black and white counterparts and perfect in contemporary kitchens. Measuring 11-7/8 by 20-3/8 by 15-7/8 inches, it comes with a child safety lock and a 13-1/2-inch glass turntable. --Emily Bedard
