Panasonic NN-CT870W Review



Our Panasonic NN-CT870W Combi Microwave Review

If your budget is around the £200 mark, and you're looking to buy a reliable family microwave, then you might be interested in the Panasonic NN-CT870W.
Providing 1000w of power when in regular microwave mode, 1500w when using the grill (with 3 different settings) and a convection oven catering for between 100 and 250C, this is a pretty versatile kitchen appliance.
In terms of capacity, it's pretty big - 32 litres in size, measuring 53 by 34.4 by 50.8cm - so make sure you have room in your kitchen prior to purchasing. Internal dimensions are 35cm by 25cm by 36cm - and so this should fit the majority of dishes.
As you'd expect from Panasonic, build quality is excellent - we can't see there being any durability issues with this combination microwave oven.
There are various preset auto settings - Vegetables, Fish, Pizza, Meat, Crispy Top, Chicken and Bake - although you are obviously not restricted to these and so will be able to set your own time and temperature settings. You can even set up to three of your own programmable pre sets - saving yourself from having to enter in the same settings repeatedly.
The inside is very easy to clean - and the controls for this microwave, although daunting at first, are in fact pretty easy to use.
The only two faults we can find with this excellent and well thought out microwave are that the interior is a black enamel material, which can make viewing the interior a touch difficult, and secondly that the bulb can't be easily replaced by the user, and so you may need an engineer to come out to fit a new one should there be any issues. That said, overall the microwave performed very well, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it if your budget can stretch this far.
Our Verdict for the Panasonic NN-CT870W
An expensive white combination microwave with a whole host of features - feels like it's built to last, and works very well. It may be slightly out of some people's price range, but if you can afford the retail price, then it's well worth considering.

Microwave Articles
Next up in our combination microwave review section is a massive microwave for those with larger families and room for a substantially sized appliance in their kitchen. The Panasonic NN-CF853W is a huge 32 litre combi microwave, featuring a comprehensive 1000w power output, flatbed technology and a massive 41cm by 25cm by 32cm interior, with stunning modern looks and an intuitive button system.
The modest sized R662KM 20 litre grill microwave from Sharp offers a 1000w grill, and weighs just 11.4kg.
The 20 litre Russell Hobbs RHM2017 is finished in a silky silver and mirrored door exterior, complete with a 800w power output and 5 different power levels.
A powerful mid sized 900w microwave, featuring a 25 litre capacity, 8 auto cook functions and a silver finish, the Sharp R372SLM is well worth considering for a mid sized household needing a solo microwave.
