Panasonic NE-1878 Professional Inverter Microwave - 1800W

The Panasonic NE1878 is an extra heavy-duty 1800W inverter microwave designed for the rigorous demands of high-volume commercial kitchens, including restaurants, pubs, and professional catering outlets. Its 18-litre capacity and high wattage output allow it to handle both single-portion meals and bulk heating tasks with consistent precision. Featuring 30 programmable memory settings and one-touch operation, this unit streamlines service during peak periods by ensuring menu items are prepared exactly the same way every time, improving both kitchen efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Constructed with a durable stainless steel cavity and a rugged exterior, this microwave is built for longevity in the most demanding commercial environments. It is supplied with a 13A UK plug for immediate installation and features a stackable design to maximise operational capacity in kitchens where counter space is limited. The unit utilises a flat-bed design rather than a turntable, increasing usable internal space and removing moving parts prone to mechanical wear. Weighing just 17.5kg, the compact inverter-driven power supply makes this unit approximately 30% lighter than traditional microwaves of a similar size, aiding portability and access for cleaning.

This model offers significant operational advantages, including an energy-saving design that reduces power consumption by up to 6.3%. The innovative all-metal door is completely smooth on the inside, lacking the ridges or seals that often trap food debris, making it exceptionally easy to maintain high hygiene standards. To prevent avoidable repairs, the unit includes splatter guard detection that prevents operation if the ceiling plate is missing, and it is supplied with a spare plate to ensure continuous service. For total business continuity, the NE1878 is backed by a three-year full onsite parts and labour warranty, providing professional support directly at your premises.
