A good microwave makes everyday cooking faster and easier. A Panasonic inverter microwave makes it noticeably better. And buying one certified refurbished means you can get a premium model for the price of a basic one new.
Here are the best certified refurbished Panasonic microwaves available in Australia in 2026 — all from Big Warehouse Refurbs with free shipping Australia-wide and a 1-year warranty.
Best budget pick: Panasonic NN-ST64QW 32L — under $230
If you want a reliable, no-fuss inverter microwave at the lowest possible price, the NN-ST64QW is the one. It's a 32L 1100W model with 20 pre-programmed auto menus and Panasonic's inverter technology for even, consistent heating. Refurbished for under $230, it delivers genuine performance at an entry-level price.
Best for: Singles, couples, anyone replacing a basic microwave.
Best everyday model: Panasonic NN-ST665B 32L — around $235
The NN-ST665B is one of Panasonic's most popular models for good reason. 32 litres, 1100W inverter, sensor cooking, and a clean stainless interior that's easy to wipe down. It handles everything from reheating leftovers to defrosting meat evenly without the hot-and-cold cycling you get from conventional microwaves. Refurbished around $235, it's a smart buy.
Best for: Families, everyday cooking, anyone wanting a dependable workhorse.
Best flatbed model: Panasonic NN-SF56QB 27L — around $249
The flatbed design removes the turntable entirely, which means no awkward large dishes and a much easier clean. The NN-SF56QB is a 27L 1000W inverter flatbed with a sleek black finish that suits modern kitchens. If bench space and ease of cleaning matter to you, flatbed is worth the marginal price difference. Refurbished around $249.
Best for: Modern kitchens, families who cook larger dishes, anyone who hates cleaning around a turntable.
Best all-rounder: Panasonic NN-SF564W 27L Flatbed — around $249
The white flatbed alternative to the SF56QB. Same 27L flatbed format, same inverter performance, classic white finish. A solid choice if your kitchen skews lighter in colour. Refurbished around $249 and consistently one of our better sellers.
Best for: White goods kitchens, flatbed fans who prefer the classic look.
Best premium model: Panasonic NN-CD88QS 34L 4-in-1 — around $675
This is the one if you want to do more than reheat. The NN-CD88QS combines microwave, grill, convection oven and air fryer in a single 34L unit. It can air fry chips, roast a chicken, bake a cake or grill toast — all from one appliance. At full retail this model costs over $900. Refurbished around $675, it's genuinely exceptional value for anyone who wants a versatile kitchen setup without multiple appliances on the bench.
Best for: Home cooks, small kitchens with limited bench space, anyone wanting to replace multiple appliances with one.
Why inverter technology matters
Every Panasonic microwave in our range uses inverter technology. The difference in everyday use is real — inverter delivers continuous, regulated power rather than the on-off cycling of conventional microwaves. Food heats evenly, defrosting doesn't cook the edges while leaving the centre frozen, and delicate reheating doesn't result in rubbery textures. Once you cook with an inverter microwave, it's hard to go back.
