In fact, they are required to have a safety switch to disable the oven if the interlock fails.
The inverter technology is pretty cool as compared to other microwaves. If a microwave has settings less than high, the magnetron is cycled on and off while the inverter technology allows it to actually operate at a lower level. From what I can tell, there is little difference in results other than possibly less energy used and a little more expensive machine.

I agree with that it is not good to have a defective microwave ie. runs with the door open. I have removed the microwave and put it in the garage to take it to the ecocentre.
I agree that later appliances do not last. That includes microwaves, new ovens.
Likely will go to Costco and buy another Panasonic. Thanks for all the replies!
