    Very powerful and quiet for a small microwave, bought as a open box (display model), definitely recommend this one if you don’t have much space in your kitchen.

    very nice item, works real well. I have 2 reservations about it: if u want to put it on for, let's say, 12 seconds, you need to press 3 buttons, the 1 and the 2 but before that, you also must press the button "Time Cook", somewhere in the center of the panel, small characters. It's silly to go through that extra step, and figure out the location among 14 other buttons. Also, it would have been nice to have one button that the user can program, if I warmed up my pita to 18 seconds every day

    I bought this istem 2months ago for $99 and so far, the microwave is working as advertised. It is fast and it looks good. My concerns are longevity and customer service but we wont know that until....my last one lasted ~10 years (Samsung) and that was expensive. Will do a follow up review if any problem occurs.

    We purchased this Sharp-Carousel November 2022. I wanted to love this microwave, it looks nice and fits in our space perfectly. With that being said, we have 2 complaints. The first one is the design of the turntable. It constantly gets misaligned and it is a pain to line it up so it's sits correctly to turn. This happens nearly every time we use it. The second complaint, and it's probably our fault because of the low wattage. Our previous microwave warmed and defrosted things up fast. This one takes 3x's as long to cook or defrost. We are looking for a replacement this today and donating this one. As far as a recommendation to purchasing this microwave, if those above complaints do not bother you as it does us this is the microwave for you.

    This microwave is working as it should. However, not even the first day had passed, the product has cheap chrome overlays on the front. Specifically near the button, the chrome is "popping" off as if it's not glued down properly. This is the 2nd unit also, since the first one I received had a large sideways dent on the front.

    I like this Microwave but I am honestly not sure it was the right microwave in the box. It was an unopened box. The owner's manual showed the correct number. As you can see from the photos here though, the dimensions don't match the description on this site. It does function well and I wasn't looking for anything huge, so I am happy enough.

    Good capacity and quality, solid construction. Wanted to put on a shelf in my pantry, but shelf not deep enough. Wish it was a higher powered microwave, but it will do for now. Nice stainless steel finish. Control panel is nice to use, no cheap turn knob. Fair price too.

    Just picked it up from local store and took good care of it until opened box. Found bottom supports were not all standing on surface. I have tried a few surfaces, got same result. And found unparallel gap on the control panel side, plus, it could be pushed in and out. I hope it’s not because someone dropped it before. It seems working fine with these defects, so i didnt bother returning it. I suggest to check the product in person before buying it

    Died After Six Days - Avoid Avoid Avoid

    We purchased this microwave at Best Buy on 12/10/2019 to replace an LG which was on its last legs after a whopping five years. Yippee! After researching and considering many brands and models, this seemed to be the best fit. So much for that. On our sixth day of ownership and maybe 10 uses at most, the machine emitted a distinct burning-electronics smell and that was that. No, we were not microwaving anything metal. I know appliances are basically disposable now (which is disturbing on its own but that's a different post), but six days? Glad I bought the four-year extended warranty which I NEVER DO because I feared this would happen. I have initated a claim with Sharp, so now is their chance to shine. I WILL NOT be amused if the solution involves me driving all over creation to return/repiar the microwave that lasted six days.

    Molding pops off around button at base - returned

    Stainless steel is the color to stay away from, since the trim surrounding the "open" button separates within two days - comes unglued and sticks out. This was not a floor model, which is where you might see that sort of thing, after kids have played with it, but this was new in box. The lady who helped me return it could not find one in black, so I returned it for white - can't recall her name, but she's a class act. I'll still buy this model, but not in stainless steel.
