SHARP Countertop Microwave Oven with Removable 12 4 Carousel Turntable 1000 Watt 1 1 Cubic Feet Stainless Steel

I am going from an OLD B&D 1000w, 1.1CuFt microwave to this new Sharp unit. I am amazed at how quiet it works and how much more powerful this new unit is in comparison to the old. I also noticed the carousel tray rotates at a faster speed, if that even matters. The functionality of this unit overall is excellent in all ways. This well built, solid microwave is good looking with its sleek lines and simple interface. The push button door opener is new to me also and I like it better than having a grab handle. The child-lock is SUPER easy to disable and Sharp has placed instructions on a label attached to the outside of the door. This child-lock feature is a LAW and obviously, Sharp understands that nobody actually uses it and provides these simple instructions conspicuously on the door. For those that it matters: I have a very specific cabinet shelf that is sized rather tight. I needed a microwave that was no taller than 12" and needed to sit on a 12" deep shelf. This unit DOES NOT meet this need. The height is fine at 11.8" but the feet on the underside need a depth of 13" to sit properly. I am a woodworker and was able to easily add an extra 1 1/4" to my shelf, but I didn't want to do this and was hoping this unit would fit. It does not. The advertised dimensions otherwise are spot on. In closing, this is an excellent microwave that works great and is easy to operate. An Excellent Value For The Money - Highly Recommended Read more

If you’re looking for a brand name that offers longevity, Sharp is the brand for you. My last Sharp microwave lasted from 1985 until this past summer. I missed it so much that I decided to shop for a Sharp and saw this stainless steel appliance matching decor model that I purchased. It works extremely well and cooks even better. It gives off no odors and fits well in the kitchen where my larger Sharp convection microwave stood for many years. Once you get used to the buttons and know that if you have an exact numeral cook, just press in the time. If it’s a minute and seconds cook, First press the time cook button, and then put in the time you need to cook your food. For example, if the food calls for five minutes and 15 seconds first hit time cook and then the three numerals. It’s that simple! I’m very happy with this purchase! Read more

Excellent microwave. Cooks evenly, looks great. Here's something I love, the popcorn button works perfectly with Orville Redenbacher which is a feature advertised on more expensive models only but seems to have leaked down to this model too (despite no advertising for it). I tested it... Perfect. The annoying child safety door lock is super easy to disable and *remains disabled* even if the microwave loses power. I've yanked the power and tested this. It's just like Sharp said. (Press 7 then 9, then hold 0 until it beeps). PS this is a new regulation for any microwave sold in the US after March 2024. Personally I think it's a bit nanny state to force manufacturers to ship microwaves with it enabled by default rather than optional afterwards... But it is what it is. Sharp make it super easy to disable and they even put a very large sticker on the microwave showing you how to do it. I think the company realise how annoying this "feature" is for people without kids, so they did their best to help us out. I dropped a star because closing the door seems a bit louder than usual, I feel like they could have dampened the closing a bit.. To me it's no big deal though. Read more

Wow! What a great microwave. Read dozens of reviews before I found this one. Not a single negative thing in the reviews. So far I’m loving it. Perfect size. Holds a good sized dinner plate. Very easy to use. Heats quickly and easily. Very easy to follow instructions. Quiet. A breeze to “install”. Don’t know about durability or longevity as I’ve only had it for a couple of weeks. Very happy so far. Read more
