The Panasonic NN-SN686S is really versatile in terms of cooking a variety of food items. I've made popcorn, defrosted small cuts of meat, and even reheated leftovers with great results.

That's true! I have one too and it's been fantastic for making quick meals. The sensor cooking and defrost function make it really convenient. Plus, the 13.5-inch turntable diameter is perfect for larger plates and dishes.

Thanks for the input everyone! It seems like a solid choice based on your experiences. I'm curious though, does anyone have any experience with higher wattage microwaves? I've seen that the NN-SN686S has 1200W watts, but I'm not sure if that's enough for my needs.

I think you'll be fine with 1200W. Higher wattages can definitely speed up cooking times, but they also consume more power. The NN-SN686S is powerful enough for a variety of tasks like reheating leftovers and defrosting frozen items.

Yeah, my friend who has the NN-SN686S says she's very satisfied with its performance, even though it's not the highest wattage out there. You might want to check out other models as well, just to compare and see which one suits you best.

That's a good point. It ultimately depends on your specific needs. But I can tell you that my NN-SN686S has been great for cooking a variety of dishes and it handles different types of food with ease. The sensor cooking feature is really useful too.

Thanks again everyone! Based on what you've shared, I think the Panasonic NN-SN686S might be perfect for me. It seems versatile enough to handle whatever I need to cook up, and the sensor cooking feature sounds like a bonus.

You're welcome! If you do get it, let us know how you like it. We'd love to hear your experience with it. Good luck!

Same here! Enjoy your new microwave and happy cooking!
