My old Panasonic has an annoying design flaw - I have to push the "power" button 7 times to reduce it to 30% power. Does this one?

Yes, this unit requires you press the [POWER LEVEL] repeatedly to change the power level.

There's another way. Use the Turbo Inverter Defrost button, and dial in the approximate weight of the food you are thawing. It calculates the time to defrost based on that.

You can also keep the "Power" button pressed and it will change the setting. That should keep it from wearing it out. (hopefully)

You actually have to push the button 8 times to get to 30 power. It really does not take much time or effort to achieve this level of power.

It's the same....actually you have to hit it 8 times. The dial doesn't seem to operate the power change function, just the time function.

I've had no problem with the one l purchased, I do find I sometimes have to push the power button more than once.

Yes. The button on the right is the power/tare button. Press it once to turn it on, press again to tare, press and hold to turn it off.

It is necessary to hold the button down for it to remain on. The button is not hard to push. The Panasonic Handy Toilette does not have this requirement.

I have the same problem. Not only that, but there seems to be an issue with the power button whether using the remote or pushing the button manually. I like its features when it works, but this power issue makes me think I got one off of the line from late Friday production run because it is crap.

I do not know. My suggestion would be to check the batteries in your current phone as to the voltage or check thwarted Panasonic website.

actually i figured it out...when it's low you gotta hold the power button down for like 30 sec. before it starts up

Not sure what the problem is, but the power button works the same way as any other I've had before. Hold has always force shut down the system. You can probably change those settings in your OS.

You do have to hold down the power button as others have said... And sometimes you have to hold it down for a what seems to be too long a time before you will finally hear the descending tones that turn the unit off. Occasionally I have to try a couple of times before it will finally turn off.

I don't know. The comments about the door not opening that other reviewers mentioned is true. I have to call Panasonic because the door doesn't always open when you press the release button. You have to pull it open with your other hand.

I hate this phone and gave it a bad review. Contact C. Service at Panasonic. They should send you a new one.

I've had mine for several years and never had a problem with power buttons. (sometimes hit off when I mean on)

I had an issue where the power button needed to be pressed repeatedly in order to start it. This kind of an issue is being reported all over message boards. I did an exchange on mine to see if that would help.

On mine, the power button also changes the speed. Push it once to turn it on, and it is on the highest speed. Keep pushing it and it changes to the middle speed, then low speed. After reaching the low speed, you have to push it one more time to turn it off.
