Lenny, One of my favorite features on my current microwave is the levels. I can thaw for 30 minutes, warm for 2 minutes and give it a blast of high for 30 seconds by programming power and time for three levels and then walk away. Mine also has a simple timer, in that I set it to power level #1 which is no power and can use that as a timer, or a spacer when programming. Can your panasonic do this? The Hamilton Beach is capable of just 2 levels of programming BTW. Thanks
