Good for the price
|Posted .We were looking for a reasonable priced yet good microwave oven for our apartment which doesn't come with built in microwave, and this was good for the price n also looks good on the counter top. We bought it in white to match other kitchen appliances! Does a good job though it's priced less

Solid microwave
Posted .I moved from an apartment that came with a microwave to one that did not. So, I need a microwave. I didn't want to spend a lot of money because I don't microwave a lot. Generally just for heating water for tea or the occasional reheating of leftovers. I'm single, live alone, and generally don't cook a whole lot. Despite my limited need for a microwave, I wanted something that I could hold on to for a few years if necessary. Which is why I didn't buy the absolute cheapest available. This Sharp microwave has a clean, sleek appearance that would look nice in any space. It's not too big, but not tiny either. It doesn't have a lot of functions and features, but who really uses those things anyway? It has everything you need - clock, timer, various cook power settings and defrost options, plus the option to simply hit one button to start the microwave for 30secs cook time. (Which I've found very useful!) I've had this microwave just over a month and can't say I've experienced any problems yet. It looks nice, it works well, no complaints. I have it sitting on top of my apartment-sized fridge, works well in a small space. I think I got it for $89.99 on sale and I had some money left on a gift card too, so it turned out to be a great deal. Very happy with this microwave.

Great basic microwave
|Posted .Great basic microwave. Has all the basics, (auto) defrost, beverage, popcorn, pizza, reheat. And weirder settings like 'potato', actually cooks a potato well. Tried the automatic defrost for poultry, and it does cook parts of meat when defrosting larger weight portions. So keep an eye out for that.

Avoid at any cost!
|Posted .This is my second review on the Sharp Microwave oven. Just a little bit over a year, the door won't open anymore. I took it apart and discovered that one of the cheaply made plastic arm or arc that supports the lever was broken. I contacted Sharp and they did not have the replacement part. They want to charge me for another microwave oven, probably at a slightly below retail price. That means that a tiny plastic part is broken, and I have to replace the entire microwave oven?? What a waste of my money, time, and bad for the environment. Such as poor quality design and workmanship. No more sharp products anymore from now on.

Control Panel Unreadable
Posted .Had to return this microwave because the control panel is totally unreadable without a flashlight. Ordered it online so I was not aware. Don't understand why a manufacturer would use dark numbers and letters on a black panel. Does white cost more???

Right for the price
|Posted .Features
Quality4 out of 5I got this unit as an open box at the Glendale Best Buy for $60. However after using it, I would have had no problem paying the full price of $109 for this unit. It cooks quickly and evenly. (I"m going from a 900 watt microwave to this one which is 11000 watts and absolutely notice the difference in cooking time(s).) If you're looking for a basic Microwave that has a few features, but not all the bells and whistles then this is for you. My only complaint is that, to this point, I haven't figured out if there is a timer feature on the microwave. The timer feature is something I use a lot when doing laundry, or need to know when something else is done, but I can always use my cell phone for that. It's just a shame that such a basic feature isn't included.

Great deal for the money
|Posted .I would recommend this to a friendLast Sharp microwave died after 8 years of family use so was happy to replace it with another Sharp microwave. Pros+ + It still comes with a light that turns on when cooking. + Simple to use with several quick start buttons (popcorn, pizza, beverage etc.) + 1 step minute buttons - just press a number on the front and it will start two seconds later. Cons- - It is just a little bit quieter than my old Sharp which was not as quiet as other brands out there. - Oven light is only on when cooking. Old model turned light on when door was opened as well. At least it has a light still. - Still getting used to the circular door open button. Can't decide if that is better than the rectangle. Overall, for the money, I don't think the other brands come close in the low price microwave section of the market for features and quality.
Q: QuestionIs there a light inside of the microwave? Does it come on when you open the door?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Thank you for your interest in the R309YW. The internal lamp only turns on when microwave is in use.

Q: QuestionTimer?I noticed that one of the previous answers to a question said it doesn't have a timer. If you are cooking a Healthy Choice frozen dinner, can it be set to cook for 5 minutes, or what ever the directions suggested? Thank you ,
Asked by sharp owner.
- A:Answer Great question! We would like to clarify a few things regarding the timer feature of the R309YW Sharp microwave. You will be able microwave items for specific timeframes. The microwave does come equipped with a timer. The microwave signal audio beep for timer end cannot be turned off.

Q: QuestionWhere is the vent?Does this microwave vent to the back of the unit? I've seen some that vent on the left side and that wouldn't work for me where I have to place it.
Asked by Badgergal.
- A:Answer Thank you for your recent inquiry in regards to the vent on the R309YK. We are happy to help. The vent on this microwave is on the left side and for proper ventilation of this unit we would recommend 3" of clearance on the top back and sites of the microwave.
