Perfect Balance of Power, Size, and Simplicity
I bought this Sharp microwave about a month ago and it has already proven itself to be a reliable kitchen essential. At 1000 watts, it heats food quickly and evenly, and the 1.1 cu. ft. size is perfect. It’s not too bulky, but still big enough to fit a full dinner plate or even a small casserole dish.
What really stands out is how easy it is to use. The control panel is intuitive with one-touch options for popcorn, beverages, and reheating. The digital clock and timer are bright and easy to read. It also has a sleek stainless steel design that fits in well with other appliances.
I also appreciate how quietly it runs compared to other microwaves I’ve owned. There’s no unnecessary rattling or loud buzzing. The turntable rotates smoothly and keeps everything evenly heated, so no more half-cold, half-molten leftovers.
Overall, this microwave offers a great mix of performance, style, and value. If you’re looking for a dependable countertop microwave without unnecessary extras, this is a solid choice. Highly recommend!

This the best microwave I have owned. It operates quietly and heats item quickly and evenly. The controls are easy to operate and it has useful features. The manual is well written which made setup and programming a breeze. I would recommend this model to anyone looking for a well-made, reliable microwave at a reasonable price.

solid microwave (for now). it does all the things a microwave should. LED lights inside are new and it seems dim compared to the old incandescent bulbs, but whatever.
the "for now" is because this replaced our previous Sharp microwave that lasted about 4 years. I expect this one to last the same.

Recently needed a new microwave and purchased a Sharp. Needed something powerful yet compact enough to fit on. A shelf. This microwave has all of the necessary features and does a very good job of heating food evenly. Highly recommend.

This has been a reliable microwave so far. Its great to have food cook perfectly at the timea written on the box instead of needing to adjust. Also the Orville endorsement isnt a gimmick only, the popcorn button is getting frequent use.

This is a great microwave! We're happy that it doesn't have a child-proof handle on it because we got it for work. It does everything it's supposed to do - heats consistently and evenly! Love the gray colored interior! Would definitely purchase again!

TERRIBLE BEST BUY SERVICE TO A LOYAL CUSTOMER!

Terrible Best Buy Service! The item came dropped & dented beyond functionality & they would still not offer an exchange. I am a long time customer, but no exceptions for the fact that I was out of town due to family issues and missed their 14 DAY RETURN window. Really Best Buy are you hurting that much that you can't exchange a $150 item and quit using FEDEX - they are terrible with their package care. Now, I will find other places to buy my small applicances.

Purchased this for my mother to replace a Panasonic that died. Needed a smaller size microwave that could fit onto a shelf, this model fit the bill and it's 1000 watts which is a good power level for this size. Controls are similar to her previous microwave so that helps with ease of use. There is a child lock feature which i disabled, because it would just be frustrating to my elderly mom. So far, seems to be working fine!

Our ancient (but still fully operating) Kenmore (!) microwave finally gave up the ghost. We needed to find another countertop microwave that would fit the designated space, so we did our research and settled on the Sharp 1.1 cu. ft. 1000W Countertop Microwave. It's ever-so-slightly larger than our previous one, and more powerful, but had all the things we wanted and needed. And Best Buy had it in stock! We were checking out with our new microwave less than five minutes after we arrived!
This microwave does everything we need. The design and layout of the control panel is clear and logical. The button to open the door is easy to use but feels very solid and reliable. The microwave itself is quiet when in operation. When it's done, five little dings tell you it's ready for you. (Three would have been fine, Sharp, but, OK, we'll do five!) And cleanup is easy.
We're very pleased with our new microwave, and hope it lasts the almost 30 years that our last one lived!

After lots of time spent online researching microwaves I purchased this Sharp microwave. Results of research indicate that this is the safest choice in terms of materials used to make microwave. It does not emit toxic substances so it is safer to use than most. I have found it to be a great purchase for additional reasons as well, it is a compact size but has great power snd cooks/warms perfectly. It is also attractive and would fit in with both dark or regular stainless steel appliances. I recommend this microwave, it’s safe and it performs very well.
