Customers Say

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews

This thoughtfully designed microwave strikes an ideal balance between simplicity and capability, making it a reliable kitchen companion. The straightforward controls and quick-press buttons eliminate confusion, while the efficient 1000-watt heating consistently delivers impressive results for everyday tasks. Its space-smart design accommodates full-size plates without hogging counter space, and the notably quiet operation won't disturb household peace. While the gray interior might make food monitoring slightly challenging, the solid construction and smooth-operating door mechanism reflect its built-to-last quality - something longtime owners particularly appreciate. Families value the child safety lock, though some wish its activation was more intuitive. The bright LED display ensures good visibility, even if it runs a bit intense at night.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sharp 1.1 cu. ft. 1000W Microwave It is the quietest microwave we have ever owned! The interior lighting is great. It has a darker hue, which is easy on the eyes! The carrousel has a free floating glass plate, that I assume was designed to protect the motor from stress! But the best thing we like about this microwave is, when you open the door when it is beeping, the beeping quits! All the other microwaves we have owned, whether countertop, or over range, have all kept the incessant beeping after the door was opened! All in all, we think you won't go wrong purchasing this countertop microwave, and it is well worth the price!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Attractive, Feature Filled, and Works Great Purchased this Sharp microwave to replace our previous Sharp that died after 18 years of continuous use. We were delighted to see that Sharp had a model similar to our previous one with all the same, convenient features. We like the grey interior, similar to our main oven. The interior light is bright and useful. The microwave sound is hardly noticeable, not loud at all. The time and temperature features are easy to operate. It heats well at whatever power percentage you select. We love the quick 30 second function and that numbers 1-6 are programmed to give you 1-6 minutes on high at the touch of one button. And we do very much like the illuminated clock that gives just enough light at nighttime to double as a kitchen nightlight. We find the kitchen timer handy for many uses. What's not to like? We wouldn't have bought any other model or brand. Thank you Sharp!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Thrilled with New Microwave! I purchased this microwave after extensive research to find a quality unit after disappointment with other brands. Sharp had many good reviews & was reasonably priced. This microwave oven is stylish, easy to clean and user friendly. I chose the unit in black to match other appliances in the kitchen. It comes in 3 colors (black, white & stainless steel) to match any decor. Also fits nicely on the countertop at 1.1 cubic feet. This is a 1000 watt microwave, very powerful & effective at its job. There is a similar unit that is bigger with higher wattage but I chose this one to save on electricity. This model also has an LED bulb which should last longer than an incandescent to save energy as well. This oven heats evenly which is important for food safety. I've had other microwaves in past that seem to take forever to cook. This one is very fast for the wattage. Would definitely recommend this unit based on Sharps reputation, ease of use and price point vs. other models.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Reliable Microwave We used several Sharp microwaves where I worked. Never saw a failure. When it came time for a new one at home, we purchased a Sharp. That was about 10 years ago. When I needed a second unit for a different floor, purchased a Sharp and it too has been flawless.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Needed a good microwave during kitchen remodeling We needed a small countertop microwave to put in the dining room (our temporary kitchen). This was highly rated and proved to be just what we needed: easy to operate, support information was complete and straightforward, and the unit is attractive (we’ve received several compliments on its looks). Our new kitchen will include a new Sharp pullout microwave. Can’t wait to see how well it will perform.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great microwave for your everyday needs My Sharp microwave has made a heck of a difference when it comes to my everyday cooking needs. It reheats my leftovers with ease, melts butter without much effort when I bake and has a safety feature to click UNLOCK to prevent children from accessing hot foods after reheating.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from replacement for Sharp that lasted 10 years of heav This unit is almost identical to the one that it replaced. Controls are familiar (same). I was very happy with the unit prior to this (lasted 10 years of heavy use) and expect this one will be as pleasant to use. My only complaint is the lighting inside; not nearly as bright and useful as my old Sharp:-(

what is the height including legs

Asked by: jimr
Legs? No real legs. There's like a one inch "bottom" that runs across the whole bottom area. The actual height (all measurements) should be in the advertisement. I bought mine just under a year ago and the digital clock/timing lights started burning out after about 6 months! First, one, then another, and another. You cannot tell by looking at it, what time it is! I do NOT recommend this microwave. I was smart enough to buy the extended warranty (which I dont usually do) so I'm hoping when I take it back, that they will honor the warranty and either fix, or replace it. My last microwave lasted over 35 years and was still working just fine when I gave it away. But now days, nothing is built to last anymore. I miss my old microwave!

WHAT ARE THE DIMENSIONS??

Asked by: LOULOU
20 1/8" Wide X 11 3/4" Tall X 15" Deep. It is small but you can put a 12" diameter plate in it and you have about 8" of height to work with on the inside. I have had it for about 2 years and it it is still working without any issues. Gets daily use. Nice and small but big enough to handle large plates and doesn't take a lot of counter space. It also has plenty of power.
