Our Verdict

Panasonic NN-SN67HS

Panasonic NN-SN68QB

The Panasonic NN-SN67HS is a better microwave than the Panasonic NN-SN68QB for most people. They're both medium-sized models that cook quickly and include cooking sensors, but the NN-SN67HS is somewhat easier to use. Both options have membrane touch panel controls, and it's pretty easy to start a simple cooking program with either, but the NN-SN67HS makes it easier to use more specific cooking settings, like cooking at 50% power for 2.5 minutes. The Panasonic NN-SN67HS also has buttons to lock or mute the controls. The NN-SN68QB, on the other hand, is a little quieter, which you may appreciate if noise is a concern.
