Good item
An inexpensive product and the quality is good. The light output is up to specification too from what I can tell.
Although you can find cheaper ones around, I'd not personally get them and suggest you stick to these as they are a decent product. Recommended.

Quite reasonable
1 of 1 found this helpful I purchased this to replace a broken 'Proline' microwave. I picked this Panasonic as it was nearly the same specification:
19L vs 20L capacity.
The turntables were about the same size too. I actually put in next to the old one for comparison and its near enough a match in external and internal size, ideal for me.
Both the other make and the Panasonic were rated at 800W / Category 'E' , so you'd think they were like for like.
My issue with it is, its not as powerful it seems despite both the Category rating *and* the Power rating being the same. I've based this on heating up soup as well as some 'frozen micro fries' and there's definitely a difference. I'd not say it was like it was only on "medium" (as that was the first thing I checked) however let me provide an example:
Soup: Instructions say 2 mins / stir / 1.5 to 2 mins / wait / stir etc.
If I did 2 mins for the second 'cycle' with the old one you could hear the pea's in the soup popping ( ! ) so 1.5 was plenty.
The new microwave, well 2 mins / stir / 2 mins / no popping so I had to give it another 30 seconds. I realise that noise means its being 'overdone' however it does tell me the power 'output' does not appear quite the same.
It was similar with the frozen fries too, they needed another minute.
I guess the technology change could be the cause as I understand there are differences with things like inverters and the like.
I only use them on 'manual' I've never bothered with any 'auto' programs as my microwave use is for simple heating only.
Overall: Yes its OK and its good enough for me although I am just slightly disappointed its not as powerful as the old model despite me picking this one especially as it matched both Cat Rating and Power Rating.
If it was a 0 to 10 rating I'd probably give it 7 or 8. Its fine it is just not quite as "pokey" as the other one I had for some reason...

Very easy to setup and use
1 of 1 found this helpful I was initially I'll admit slightly apprehensive about this given that it may of needed some tweaks to work. However I decided to install the software from the dongle anyway (without a sim card present) then see what options were present. It appeared to be R.O.I or N.I (unsure which) original provider at a guess.
Anyway cutting to the chase, I use GiffGaff and I did not bother setting up a new profile in the software's settings, Windows7 allowed me to set the APN and that was it, it worked. The software itself is not needed to be ran to use it unlike some however it would be wise and sensible to install it so it installs needed services perhaps, then just leave it off.
Setup time once I'd looked was about one minute! W7 retains the settings if you allow it so you're good to go in that case. XP (if you still use this, I only have a box with XP64 on it without net access) might take a bit more work but Vista/7/8/10 would not present a problem.
