Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the Carousel 1.1 Cu. Ft. Mid-Size Microwave's compact size and ease of use, frequently praising its affordability and powerful performance. However, some users noted issues with the interior light, noise level, and turntable functionality. While many appreciate its features and design, a shorter-than-ideal power cord was also a recurring concern.

    I’ve had it now for about 2 weeks and it’s all I hoped it would be. It replaced a college dorm microwave that was only 700 watts. Going up to a 1,000 watts makes a huge difference. Plus the size fits right into my apartment’s microwave slot. The buttons are easy to work and read. It was the best and most powerful microwave for price.

    SO easy to use! Didn’t even have to read instructions to setup. Buttons clearly listed and written in a way the exudes self promotion! Great deal for sun $100 AND Surprisingly, not too many microwaves come in white either! Would have bought one if they had larger more expensive ones too!!!

    We wanted a countertop microwave big enough to hold a large dinner plate, from a reputable brand. This one fit our criteria and has worked well so far. My only complaint is that the button panel is a different shade of white from the door, which annoys me a little. But it works quite well and otherwise, we're happy with the purchase.

    Great microwave. I love the fact that the light doesn't stay on when the door is open. I only found out shortly before purchasing it that closing the door after use contributes to the formation of rust. That is what happened to my last one. Easy operation. Cooks/reheats great. Wonderful that it only beeps 3 times--unlike my last that beeped 5 times, which is annoying. This microwave does everything I want or need it to. Some have left bad reviews but I have had a great experience with it. Highly recommend!

    Reasonable counter footprint with plenty of power. Love the one button functionality where I can hit a button and it will run for time required. For instance, hit the "1" button and walk away. Microwave runs for 1 minute at 100% power. This works for 1 through 6. Of course the carousal is a must for any microwave and this one works well.

    Ordered online 2 months ago after days of comparison from every store in ft. Worth as well as Amazon and online dealers. I went to Walmart to see theirs (cheaper but smaller and felt too flimsy). Found this on best buy and it's perfect size and perfect power. Delivered to my door quickly. What else can I say.....it fits the bill.

    My Second Sharp Carasel Microwave

    Our microwave died about 4 weeks ago and we have been warming our leftovers with the oven and aluminum foil. It was delivered yesterday and we are very pleased with our purchase. It is the only microwave I buy from now on. Fits on my counter perfectly, however, we will be placing it on a microwave stand in the near future due to us not having a lot of counter space. It is a lot larger than our last microwave and I am very satisfied with the overall transaction from ordering it a week ago through the free delivery through UPS ( who were very professional and knocked on our door when they placed it on our porch.)

    The price was good, it is spacious enough, easy to set up and clean. The one quirk? It defaults to quick cook where you press one of the big number buttons and it starts to cook to that time. To set the time yourself, you need to find the smaller "time set" button, then punch in the time and start. Nothing really but getting used to your devices.

    Minor changes make for puzzling button pushing

    This microwave replaced an "identical" Sharp Carousel. Outside dimentions were more or less the same but was taller and narrower inside. The carousel "plate" was smaller causing the splatter cover we bought to fit on the outside instead of on top of the plate. A minor fix, but kinda unexpected. Also the legs that it sits on, are not parrallel. The back are just pressed into the bottom as an indentation which did not line up with front legs causing adujustment to the extention brackets I had installed for the old microwave. Also a minor fix, but tedious... As someone the worked with machinery, I find engineers that think they clever,... tedious and not as brilliant as they think. All in all, it works fine for now, but I do not think it will work the 20+ years the last one did. Plus I didn't even address the buttons. If this is a new buy, just read the directions and you'll be fine.

    Nice, little microwave that yet is large enough. Many of the microwaves have so many extra features that will never be used in my house. I wanted a plan simple little microwave, this little Sharp fits the bill. It is easy to use and easy to clean.

    My microwaved died. I was basically at the time cooking all my meals in the microwave during this safer at home order. So found this microwave with a good price and good reviews. I have not been disappointed. It is bigger and more powerful than my old one which helps a lot.

    Other than missing having the light come on when door is opened, the Sharp microwave does what I need it to do. Small enough to fit in my microwave cabinet, but large enough for reheating dinner plates and casseroles. I am having a problem with the turntable stopping after one to two minutes.( Reason for 3 stars instead of 5 ). Sometimes it will turn again after you stop and restart, sometimes not. I wil be returning it to Best Buy for an exchange and I will then update my review.
