We have this one

It's a 1000W inverter beast of a machine (and a Which Best Buy, iirc).
I was somewhat cynical of the smart sensor functions (having used the same microwave for the past 20 years), but it is amazing at reheating leftovers that have been frozen / fridged, and does a good job of defrosting.
Generally, for kitchen appliances (and everything else, to be fair), I'd always go single purpose.
And, for microwaves, you need to buy Panasonic or LG, as they are the only brands that have inverters. And if you don't have an inverter, you objectively have a shitty microwave.

Yes read that, it makes some sense. Thanks for recommending yours. @hamrack I actually have a sub to which, I didn’t even think to look.
@aggi that’s a great use case. We roast and bake a lot so that would really be helpful
Thanks guys

Can we talk microwaves?
We haven't had one for years, but with kids on the way I gather we will wish we did. They seem to do a lot of things now - are the ones with ovens/ grills any good? Can one replace our toaster (DJ's comment RE using a pan aside) but retain the ease? And can it look nice?
Do you love yours?
Edit
This Sage looks nice
This Panasonic makes a lot of promises and has a good review but looks awful
