Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

Bought this for our bar downstairs. It is quiet and just the right size to fit a small space. Glad I opted to spend a tad more money for the quality. Easy to use.

This microwave has exceeded my expectations. It is powerful and boils a cup of water in just 2 minutes; 1 minute less than my last model. The glass plate attaches to an insert in the unit, so no separate 3 prong insert with rollers to fiddle with. It has a child proof lock if you need that, which is easily disabled if you don’t. Great size, features and appearance. Highly recommended.

Works great, perfect size, nice price, easy to use, child proof.

Overall, i would recommend this microwave. Clear panel choices - like a separate timer and clock button. Our last one combined them and it was difficult to use. The turntable is very easy to put in. Again, previous one was very hard to slot in. Reheats and cooks well. The only drawback is, to my taste, the inside light. This one is a little too dim and i would like it brighter.

We recently bought this because the home we are renting doesn't have a microwave. This powerful unit is perfect for us. The size is not overwhelming, and 1,000 watts is amazing. We also make full use of the child lock-our grandson visits often, and there is no danger of him opening the door and getting burned. It is quiet, and the dark gray interior is a nice upgrade. We are very happy with our purchase!

Love this oven & very easy to use & just the right power at 1000W.

So far it has been good. We have not had it long enough to give it a 5 star. Good enough size and the power seems to be a little more than our last one. The having to hit a pre button before we put in the amount of time we want it to run is an adjustment. Maybe others like that the microwave automatically puts in minutes if you just push the numbers. However, that is not the way we cook so it is an adjustment. We hope it will last as long as the last microwave we bought from best buy.

works like a charm, quiet and compact. highly recommend it.

This microwave is exactly what we were looking for. It fits the allotted space in the kitchen and has easy-to-understand features which allows us to figure out how to use it quickly. The lock-out function is simple to turn off. The power rating is good for all of our cooking needs. Its carousel is easier to set back up, because of an improved design in the hub.

Very powerful heating ability, high quality appearance, & easy to clean. When cooking food steam covers the inside with moisture. Good unit

Outstanding microwave. Very easy to use and cooks or heats everything great. Larger than I thought but it's perfect. Great price also!

This Sharp 1000W countertop microwave oven, Model SMC1162KS, is a replacement for the one that I bought about three years ago from Best Buy and developed a problem while still under warranty. The 1.1 cu. ft. size is just right for my cooking needs, the keypad is easy to use, and the appearance is elegant. This replacement has a child-resistant lock to help prevent unwanted opening of the door while food is cooking. This feature can be turned off, if desired, for households with no children. The process of obtaining this replacement was easy. After Best Buy technicians determined that it was more economical to replace rather than repair my microwave oven, I was told to go to Best Buy with my receipt for the original item and my notification authorizing replacement, and choose a model, I received credit amounting to the price of the original item. I am pleased with the performance of my new microwave oven.

Simple, easy tio use, easy to clean, and compact, and not noisy.

Great compact microwave easy to use heats up evenly and nice to look at

I was looking for a mid size microwave and this one is perfect. It's a little shorter then I thought but that's my own fault. Everything else is perfect!

This microwave was purchased to replace a Sharp Carousel that we had owned and used since 1995. This new model is almost identical in features as the old version. It looks great in our kitchen and runs very quietly. My only complaint is that it lacks a preprogrammed button for cooking rice, which our older model had and we used a lot. I checked the manual and Sharp did not include any instructions for cooking rice. Except for this small quibble, it's a nice microwave and I am happy with the purchase.

sharp countertop microwave is easy to use and quiet and doesn't take up a lot of room

Great little microwave! Plenty of power and small footprint. The child lock safety feature is not my favorite, but all the other features make up for it!

Great microwave, quietest unit we’ve ever owned, works great, child proof door lock took a minute to get used to, money well spent, highly recommend
