I don't know anything about that model, but if it isn't right for you don't
hesitate to exchange it for the other. I especially love that it is not
necessary to put markers on the buttons in order to locate them. I have always
had to make overlays before and stick them on, or mark with individual dots, or
in latest years, use notebook page reinforcers as markers. Those can be bought
in office stores, can be bought as clear or in colors, adhere well enough so
replacement is only occasionally needed, and can be stacked to make them
thicker and thus easier to feel. Nevertheless, these are probably not good for
anybody who has difficulty feeling things with their finger tips.
My microwave arrived on Saturday, but I was not expecting it until next
Wednesday. I hope yours arrives in a timely manner too.

Hello,
I believe the microwave I am anticipating is similar. It is a Panasonic
Nn=SN776S. I hope it’s similar, because I so enjoyed your description of the
oven you are purchasing. I am expecting it on May 21st, assuming that the
shipping is on time.
Does anyone know anything about this particular model number?
Thank you.
Suzanne
