Customers are saying
Customers highly appreciate the microwave's power and quiet operation. It is also considered user-friendly and reasonably priced. The compact size and attractive appearance, particularly in stainless steel, are additional positive aspects. However, the lack of an interior light is a common complaint, and some users have concerns about the build quality. The absence of a cooking timer is another notable drawback.

Good enough for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.3rd time I've purchased this same unit over many years (I wear microwaves out within a few years). Positive points: White cabinet (a must); Easy-touch time buttons and improved kitchen timer from previous models are good additions; LOVE the fact that light only goes on when oven is operating. Makes it easy to clean and leave the door open to air out without having to unplug it to do so. Imagine it also makes the bulb last longer. Negative points: Rotating tray goes "off track" too easily (never had this problem with last 2 units). Does not easily reset in place properly after cleaning. Have to check after starting each time to be sure it is turning; uneven heating on subsequent uses (heated a mug of water to boiling for tea in 3 minutes. Tried to do same 20 minutes later, and it took 4 minutes???. Happens on a regular basis, so can't rely that things are heated during a set time without checking); this unit is noisier that previous units (not that important to me, but may be to others). But for price paid (under $90) I can't complain. Meets my needs.

Perfect Size for Moderate Use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great microwave for the price and the limited functions needed by this user. It is good for elderly who need simple instructions. Heats well and is easy to use. Works as free-standing unit in small kitchen.

great microwave for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very pleased with this appliance. I looked for a very long time for a microwave which you would think wouldn't be s big deal. But I was looking for one with the high wattage but on the small size dimension wise so it didn't occupy allot of my counter space. This is the quietest microwave I have used.

Slightly letdown
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a new microwave and figured this was a good replacement. Well, I'm spoiled and didn't realize this was smaller than my previous, the wattage was lower and doesn't have a light to see inside the unit when it is on. Still a great buy though.

Mid powered unit
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a medium powered unit. The only improvement that it needs is for the light inside to come on when the door is opened.

Excellent microwave for a reasonable budget
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was on a budget having to buy many appliances for my new apartment. I needed a good price for the microwave but did not want to sacrifice in capacity. This microwave is 1000 Watts but feels like 1100. Its the best buy you can get for a tight budget.

Microwave does everything we expected.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Size , color, and wattage fits our needs. The Sharp microwave replaced the much older version we had previously used. Price was very good . We like the push button door open feature for convenience of use. The controls are good and functional. Lettering and numbers could be a little brighter with more contrast for easier recognition.

Good microwave oven
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The button you push to open the door sticks so it needs to be tapped to get it released. Other than that it works great.

Great Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave works great. I replaced a 10 year old microwave and didn't realize what I had been missing. It heats my food in half the time. Everything heats evenly with no cold or frozen spots. My only complaint is I should have bought it sooner.

Great product

Good value for starter apt.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good value for the money. Nice look for a first apt. Nice features. Really wanted something that would fit the kitchen without being too small. The size is just right. Mostly using it for re-heating leftovers or heating up small side dishes. Good easy to use controls

Great value microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old microwave died suddenly and I needed to replace it in a hurry. This one was on sale, so I decided to go for it. I like the size, and it has more power than any other microwave I've had -- heats quickly and well. All in all a good choice.

Bought this for my Dad and he loves it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my Dad and he loves it! Loved the price point and the feature set as well. It matched his mini-fridge and was up and making his popcorn in a few minutes. Sharp is still a great brand and we would definitely buy this again!

Problems
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this microwave for my daughter who was away at college. The first one was slightly damaged on the outside. Not bad but when she couldn't get the clock to work I decided to drive 200 miles and get it to exchange for her. Got the same microwave since she liked size, features, appearance. Took this one to her and luckily waited while she unboxed it. This one the clock worked but the door wouldn't pop open. Had to pull it open. Twice was enough for me. Think it'd be ok if you find one that works?
