Sharp - 1.2 Cu. Ft. Microwave Drawer Works with Alexa and Easy Wave Open - Stainless Steel

This is such a joy! The drawer moves pretty smoothly. I love that you can set it to open with the wave of your hand. Warning: don't fill coffee cups too high as it could splash when opening and closing the door.

Drawer microwaves and this model in particular look great. We did a big reno in December and this is now in the island. Looks good and functions as a basic microwave. Everything else is just south of mediocre. I'd suggest you get a drawer microwave from another company. Bad Stuff: - door opens/closes very slowly (~4 seconds)... doing a 30 second reheat now takes 4+4+30+4+4 = 50% longer just standing around. Likely similar with other drawers, but an unexpected negative. - doesn't let you tell it to start until fully closed - its default sounds and reminders are ridiculously annoying - beep-beep-beep on finish, and 10 seconds after that, and 10 seconds after that, and.... on and on - it forgets all settings during a power outage, turning back on the annoying sounds - and forgets your network connection - but good news, you won't want to use that feature - controls are not intuitive - classic 40 buttons where you use 5 The WiFi & App - hilariously bad. Design in your head the things you would want in a microwave app. Sharp engineers designed the opposite. Can you set the alarm settings in the app? No. Do you get a notification each time the microwave finishes cooking? Yes. I guarantee you will delete the app within 48 hours. Hand Wave to open. Neat right? No. Take how long it takes for this thing to open/close and add another 4-8 seconds of waving your hands (which are full food, else you'd just press the button) to then wait for the drawer to open. Push to close works well, but it reacts in a weird way, so some concern i'm breaking it. I stopped doing wave to open after the first week and stopped trying to demonstrate it to friends after one month (cause it will make you look silly). Height - just tall enough - fits a Venti coffee Cooks at 950watts - basically the same power as a college-dorm microwave Cost. my god, how much did i spend on this. The good: Looks good Flush install if you have a good installer; mine is shown in a 30" wide lower microwave cabinet by Medallion Reheat sensor cook works well push to close works It was suggested that I buy a Sharp because they have the patent on the drawer microwave and everyone else is just a relabeled Sharp. I would suggest you give the others a look. They may be using the same hardware, but hopefully they have a more customer-focused interface and better software engineers working for them.

I’ve only had my Microwave Drawer a few weeks but I absolutely love it and it looks so sleek and modern in my kitchen. The only thing I need to do is turn off the wave open due to my Great Danes opening it up while counter surfing my island. Was a little nervous about getting after reading some reviews but literally everything out there will have a negative review by someone. Decided to go with what I wanted and it was the right decision for me and the overall look of my kitchen.

Smooth operation, no handle makes it seemless in out island... would recommend for anybody that wants one less visible appliance on the counter or higher!

Great sleek modern design. Showstopper since cabinet microwaves are still fairly new. Hand waiving tech is not as precise as we'd like, hard to find the sensor.
