Our take
Panasonic's exact-model materials identify NN-SN966S as a 2.2-cu.-ft. stainless inverter microwave with 1,250-W cooking output, sensor functions and a 16.5-in. turntable. The 1,460-W consumption figure is a separate input rating. Its 23 7/8 × 14 × 19 7/16-in. body and 37-lb. weight make the fit question concrete. Panasonic lists the 27-in. NN-TK922SS kit for NN-SN9**S models, and Amazon B07WXKQW41 currently identifies a bundle containing the exact NN-SN966S microwave and NN-TK922SS kit. The manual uses the shorter NN-TK922S spelling, so verify the kit label and use its actual installation instructions. This oven is household-use only.
Choose the NN-SN966S bundle if you need a 2.2-cu.-ft. stainless microwave with 1,250-W output and want the documented option to move it off the counter with the included 27-in. trim kit. Measure the 23 7/8 × 19 7/16-in. footprint and, for cabinet installation, verify the opening against Panasonic's 25 1/2 × 17 3/8 × 21-in. minimum dimensions and stated tolerances. Keep the 1,250-W output distinct from 1,460-W input and do not use it for commercial service..
Avoid this model if your counter or cabinet cannot fit its documented dimensions and ventilation, if you need commercial-rated equipment, or if you need a small/light microwave. Confirm that the included trim-kit model and cabinet cutout match before installation.
Pros & cons
What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.
What works in its favor
- Panasonic's exact model guide and manual specify 2.2 cu. ft. and 1,250-W cooking output, with the separate 1,460-W input rating clearly distinguished.
- Sensor cook/reheat, inverter technology, turbo defrost and 16.5-in. tray are model-specific documented features.
- The 27-in. trim-kit path has exact kit and opening dimensions, and Amazon's exact bundle page names NN-TK922SS alongside NN-SN966S.
- Stainless door/base and silver cabinet finish are specified, as are exterior and cavity dimensions and 37-lb. weight.
What to weigh up
- The 23 7/8-in. width, 19 7/16-in. depth and 37-lb. weight call for careful counter, shelf and door-clearance checks.
- The 27-in. installation needs a cabinet opening around 25 1/2 × 17 3/8 × 21 in. and must follow the trim kit's exact tolerances and ventilation instructions.
- The owner's manual prints kit NN-TK922S, while the official shop/product sheet and exact bundle use NN-TK922SS; verify the physical kit label.
- Panasonic says this is household-use equipment and not approved or tested for commercial use.

What the features mean for you
Match the exact microwave and bundle contents
Panasonic's support guide and owner's manual identify NN-SN966S. The current Amazon page for B07WXKQW41 has a two-item bundle title naming that stainless microwave and the 27-in. trim kit; its component list calls the kit NN-TK922SS and the oven NN-SN966S. Keep this distinct from Panasonic NN-SN936B elsewhere in the roster. The direct affiliate destination includes the required tag and is used because the inspected page proves the exact bundle identity.
Compare cooking output separately from electrical input
Panasonic specifies a 2.2-cu.-ft. cavity and 1,250-W cooking output. The separate consumption figure is 1,460 W at 120 V/60 Hz. The output rating is the meaningful cooking-power comparison; input wattage is an electrical-load figure. Panasonic identifies inverter power supply, which is distinct from both ratings.
Use the documented sensor and automatic modes
Panasonic lists sensor cooking and sensor reheat for NN-SN966S, along with turbo defrost, popcorn, keep warm, child lock and staged cooking. The product sheet also lists automatic cook choices. These are maker-documented controls, not a claim about personal cooking tests or uniform results across recipes; the available evidence supports sensorCooking=true without assuming every preset is sensor-based.
Measure the 16.5-in. tray and full oven footprint
The product sheet gives a 16.5-in. turntable and exterior dimensions of 23 7/8 × 14 × 19 7/16 in. Its cavity is 18 7/16 × 10 15/16 × 18 1/2 in., and net weight is 37 lb. Check that the dish base and handles clear the tray and walls, then compare the oven's depth and door swing with the counter or shelf. A large stated capacity does not guarantee a particular handled dish will rotate.
Fit the approved 27-in. trim kit to the actual cabinet opening
Panasonic documents NN-TK922SS as the 27-in. kit compatible with NN-SN9**S models, a group that includes NN-SN966S. The kit is 27 in. wide by 18 9/16 in. high; the required opening is about 25 1/2 in. wide, 17 3/8 in. high and at least 21 in. deep, with stated tolerances. This bundle page identifies NN-TK922SS. The owner's manual prints the older/shorter code NN-TK922S, so compare the included label with the latest kit instructions before cutting or mounting cabinetry.
Keep the household-use limit in view
Panasonic's exact owner's manual says NN-SN966S is manufactured for household use only and is not approved or tested for commercial use. The supported trim-kit route changes the installation appearance; it does not change the appliance's duty rating. Use a model whose maker explicitly approves commercial service if it will run in a foodservice setting.
What else to compare
For a smaller counter footprint, lower weight or professional duty rating, compare models with exact dimensions and explicit use classification. If choosing NN-SN966S, compare both standalone countertop use and the 27-in. kit's exact cabinet opening; the bundled trim is a separate installation component, not proof that every cabinet cutout will fit.
Before you buy
What model is in the bundle?
Panasonic identifies the microwave as NN-SN966S. Amazon B07WXKQW41 lists that stainless microwave with a 27-in. NN-TK922SS trim kit.
How much cooking power does it have?
Panasonic lists 1,250 W cooking output. Its 1,460-W power-consumption figure is a separate input rating at 120 V/60 Hz.
Does it have sensor cooking?
Yes. Panasonic's exact-model feature page and product sheet list sensor cooking and sensor reheat.
What cabinet opening does the 27-in. kit need?
Panasonic specifies approximately 25 1/2 in. width, 17 3/8 in. height and 21 in. minimum depth, with width and height tolerances. Follow the kit's installation sheet.
Is it suitable for commercial use?
No. Panasonic's owner manual says NN-SN966S is for household use and is not approved or tested for commercial use.
Why do the trim-kit suffixes differ?
The owner's manual prints NN-TK922S, while Panasonic's product guide/shop, 2016 sheet and Amazon bundle identify NN-TK922SS. Check the actual kit label and installation instructions before cabinet work.

The decision
Panasonic NN-SN966S offers a documented 2.2-cu.-ft. cavity, 1,250-W output, inverter and sensor features, plus a 16.5-in. tray. B07WXKQW41 is an exact microwave-and-27-in.-kit bundle. Measure its 23 7/8 × 19 7/16-in. footprint and the cabinet opening, verify the NN-TK922SS kit label against Panasonic's instructions, and keep its household-only rating in mind.
