Fresh Food Steamed Fast

The Panasonic injects steam directly into the top of the oven from its highly efficient boiler. Cooking with steamed food retains more nutrients and natural flavours for a quicker, healthier and more delicious meal.

Quicker, Healthier and Tastier

Intelligent combination cooking offers faster great results. Combine microwave, grill, oven and steam to suit your cooking needs.

Auto Cooking

Auto Cooking is the easiest way to get your cooking started. Simply select Auto from the menu, set the weight of the food and press start. That's all it takes, as the NN-DS596B automatically adjusts the power level and cooking time to suit.

Inverter Technology

Conventional microwave ovens offer two options, full power or off. Panasonic inverter technology delivers graduated power sequences instead, allowing food to cook evenly and thoroughly with even more delicious results.

Turbo Charged Defrosting

The Panasonic Inverter technology doesn't just cook food more efficiently, it also powers the Turbo Defrost function to thaw your frozen food completely in no time at all.

Panacrunch for Extra Bite

Combine the power of the upper heater and the microwave-heated Panacrunch pan to cook food quickly and evenly, from top to bottom without the need to rotate midway through. During cooking, excess fat is drained off by the pan's grooves to maintain a crispy outside and a juicy inside.

A Flatbed for Extra Space

The Panasonic NN-DS596B replaces the conventional turntable with a much simpler flatbed, offering 29% extra cooking space inside. This enables you to use dishes of a variety of sizes or shapes.
