Panasonic HomeChef 4-in-1 Countertop Microwave Air Fryer Combo, Time-Saving 20 Presets + App-Linked Recipes, 1000W 1.2 cu ft Inverter Multi Oven & Convection Tech – NN-CV87QS Stainless Steel

Did quite a bit of research before finalizing on this model - my previous Microwave was just a basis one with solo Microwave mode available. Wanted to get into a model that offered Convection and Grill. Believe me, it's not easy to find the right model as the online model descriptions or filtering options do not help much. Moreover, it was surprising to note that most offerings with Convection option were with 27L size which is kind of smaller for a family usage. This model was more expensive compared to other Panasonic offer with Convection but this one had the additional feature of Air Frying that finally sealed the selection. As expected from Panasonic, the build quality is very good and learning curve is quite reasonable, given the features the appliance has. It's over a month of usage now - though primarily used in Solo mode (microwave) so far, very happy with functioning so far. One thing that I find strange is the fan keeps working even after a 30 second heating of a cup of water, which I find very strange. If the machine is continuously used for more than 5 minutes, I understand the cooling fan kicking in even after switching off but with 20 or 30 second usage, looks like design issue. Other than this, very happy with the choice.

Solid and reliable. The air fryer menu is easy to use for chicken and fries, and I like the (Arabic Bread) menu. Highly recommend product.

The Microwave is not working after 2 years.The Panasonic service center is asking AED800 for repair. this is the 2nd time Panasonic microwave failing.

Working fine as expected, however mention Air fryer is not really accurate, just used for frozen fries , no specific menus for this . Access to basic functions are fine , for other advanced ones, keep the book in hand! could have been more simple. Power and accessories are fine

Good

Very good and easy to use Best microwave

Did not like the air fryer option. And recieved missing the basket

I was thinking about anything wrong with it so I rate 4 stars but I couldn't find any.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this 4 in 1 home chef oven. It fits nicely on my counter, the convection ,broil , air fry and microwave all work great. The sensor reheat is so easy. From refrigerator to microwave - hit sensor and the microwave figures the time. I’ve read reviews that it is complicated to use. It is NOT complicated! If you’re concerned, just watch a YouTube video and read the instructions before using. It’s actually quite intuitive. There are a number of quick settings you can use. One is popcorn. The microwave actually determine the size of the bag and determines the time needed. It comes out perfect with both the small and large bags. This home chef 4 in 1 is a space saver and has become my go to appliance. Well worth the money!

Tiene gran capacidad, varias formas de cocinar; microondas, tostado, hervido, freído por aire. Cuenta con inversor por lo que su consumo de energía es óptimo. Calienta los alimentos muy parejos. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

Tieme solo 7 meses y ya esta fallando. Parecía un buen producto con todo incluido pero no duró nada.

This is the best oven I've ever used. This is the best microwave I've ever used. It is a great air fryer and decent broiler. However, this 4 in 1 device does have an extremely high learning curve, which is why I think some people got frustrated and gave it lower ratings. Let's put it this way, after a while of experimentation and following the instructions extremely closely, we're able to perfectly roast a 5lb chicken in 1.5 hours crispy like KFC, bake pumpkin pie with cream brulee like crust, warm up nachos that stay crispy in a couple minutes, and BBQ skewers or cook bacon wrapped hot dogs in 30 minutes. The point is once you dial in your recipes, they are perfect each time! You can also program different microwave power and different time intervals like for warming up a bowl of soup where I warm up at 500 Watts for 5 minutes and 1000 Watts for 1 minute so that it doesn't just leave the edges hot with cold soup in the middle. There are a few downsides: There is a huge learning curve because the interface isn't very intuitive and it takes time to learn how to use each accessory for the food you usually cook, so it takes time reading the manual and experimenting with different recipes. It can be difficult to clean if you wait a long time between cleanings, but there are good instructions on how to steam clean and wipe down everything. The rack did start to change color over time, especially with bacon, but the manufacture was able to reimburse us for a replacement and now we just use foil on the rack to protect it. It is a slower broiler than a toaster oven because there is only 1 heating element at the top so things like toast and skewers only get toasted on one side, but doubling the broiling time and flipping the food solves this issue. Also, we did accidently have butter explode while trying to warm up butter, so now we just microwave on low 300 Watts for a couple minutes to melt perfectly. Despite these downsides, after the learning curve is over with, the food that comes out of this machine is perfect each time like restaurant style so it more than makes up for any inconvenience! The results are so good that I don't even use my full sized oven or dedicated microwave anymore unless there are times where I have to bake or microwave two things at once, but that is very rare. Stick with this machine and after a little experimentation, you won't be disappointed.

Enjoying using this to prepare dishes for the family.
