Cuisinart CMW-200 vs Panasonic NN-SD372S

Although microwaves are primarily used for reheating food and cooking simple snacks, this one does way more. It has a built-in convection unit and a grill, making this a very versatile appliance that can bake cakes, roast a chicken and make grilled sandwiches. It even has a reversible grill rack.

The oven has a total power of 1000 W for microwaving, 1500 W for convection cooking, and 1100 W for grilling. This makes it perfect for cooking large meals.

The 1.2 cu ft. cavity is spacious enough to handle big food items or large amounts of food. For example, it's big enough to fit and grill an entire chicken.

You can save up to three different cooking procedures in the memory.

You can pre-program the oven to shift between functions automatically. For example, you can defrost a dish, then have it set to convection roast, and finish it off with a grill to brown the top.

You can choose either to defrost by setting a specified time or by weight variation.

The oven can be set to keep your food warm while you don't take it out of the oven.

The interior stainless steel coating doesn’t absorb odors and is easy to clean.

The buttons are large, visible, and easy to understand.

There is a complimentary recipe booklet included, so that you can fully utilize the features of the oven.

This microwave measures just 20 inches wide, 15 inches deep and 11 inches tall. This allows it to be used in tight spaces, like tiny kitchens, sheds, or caravans. Despite the small size, it still has 0.8 cu-ft. capacity, which is enough for a full-size dinner plate or a bowl.

This unit features automatic cooking and reheating that works accurately in most cases. The popcorn setting tends to overcook the popcorn, so it's better to keep an eye on it.

The most standout feature of this compact microwave is its ability to keep the food warm for up to 30 minutes. It achieves this by sending small microwave bursts to the food, without overcooking it.
