Question 2

what is the difference between genius cooking sensor and inverter technology

Accepted Answer

They are two unrelated technologies.  Genius cooking sensor measures the steam produced by what's cooking to determine when it's done.  Theoretically it avoids undercooking or overcooking compared to cooking by time alone.  I don't know how well it works.  Inverter technology is a technology which allows the microwave to heat food at a constant medium or low heat.  When you set the "power" level on any other microwave to something less than full power, it will simply cycle the power on an off over the tie period you set in order to provide reduced cooking.  For example, if a unit has 10 power levels and you set it to cook at level 5 for 2 minutes, the microwave will run at full power for maybe 10 seconds, provide no heat (system still running and counting down) for the next 10 seconds, then switch back on for 10 seconds, etc. until the two minutes are up.  There is no "medium" or "low" power, the full power just cycles on and off.  The Inverter technology actually allows the heat to be applied continuously, but at a lower power so it doesn't heat as quickly.  From what I've read in reviews, people can't tell much difference between the two, though Panasonic will claim more even heating.  Hope that helps.

Question 3

Does the light come on whenever the door is open, or only while it is cooking?

Accepted Answer

Both.
I can't verify if any models are lit only when cooking, but SS model that I ordered on 02-02-2020 will light up when the door is opened, also.

Question 4
