Customers Say

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews

This 1000-watt microwave delivers reliable, even heating in a thoughtfully-sized 1.1 cubic foot design that maximizes interior space while maintaining a modest footprint. The bright LED display and intuitive one-touch controls make daily use effortless, though some find the display too intense at night. While the push-button door mechanism modernizes the design, it occasionally presents operational quirks. The unit runs impressively quiet and includes well-calibrated presets for common foods, but the gray interior and side-lighting can make it tricky to monitor cooking progress. Built solid enough to prevent counter movement, this microwave balances practical features with comprehensive safety measures, though the child lock system may take some getting used to.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sharp Microwave SMC1162Ks Sharp Microwaves are by far the best microwaves on the market! They are dependable and roomy for large meals. Did I mention LONG LASTING! The last one I had lasted 12 years before I had to replace it. This is my 3rd Sharp Microwave, and I am a forever fan.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sharp Microwave Great product! Sharp has reliable products. My last microwave, also a Sharp, ran for 15+years. Unfortunately, that microwave was ruined by burning a bagel inside! Not on purpose and I couldn't get the odor out. So, I bought a new Sharp and it's great! All the latest bells and whistles that my old one didn't have.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very happy with my purchase Great purchase. Purchased before total shoulder replacement because I would not be able to reach the microwave over the stove. Worked out great on the counter. Have continued using this microwave instead of the overhead even though now I could. Always satisfied with Sharp products. Have owned other Sharp microwaves in the past and was satisfied which is why I chose Sharp again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This product is so durable and heats food so well The locking feature is perfect for preventing our young children from opening the microwave. The conduction and performance is just the same as when we got it nearly 1 year ago. I would recommend this microwave to my family and friends!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great features Love my Sharp Microwave. I use each and every day for reheating, cooking, defrosting and the timer. The plate sits well in it’s position even when I drag a heavy item out. Highly recommend it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Microwave Not too big and not too small. Very reliable. Very easy to use. Price is good. What''s not to like!!!
Date published: 2026-04-28
Rated 5 out of 5 by from The product has good feature's Cleaning the inside of this one is much easier, because it has no seam's or corner's, it's all on piece with rounded edge's and corner's. Also, with everything rounded on the inside and it being one piece, it stops anything from running into those pesky crack's and crevices that other oven's have and it start's to rust over time,,,,not this one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Convenience and Reliability The microwave is a convenient size, with practical features. Good for warming up canned soups, small loaves of bread, re-heating left-overs. Easy to wipe clean if any spills occur. Price was reasonable.
Date published: 2026-04-28
Rated 5 out of 5 by from The door is not easily jammed, plus great features I have owned many brands of microwaves in the past, and Sharp is the only brand that has no issue with the door jammed (stuck). The one that I owned lasted more than 10 years. The 30 second key for instant starts and Express Cook options are very helpful. My wife loves these features.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easiest to use! Didn't even need the manual to use it! I cook a lot of things at 50% power. It was a no brainer. Enter the time then the power level & hit start. It's sleek and fit right into the spot like a glove. Couldn't be happier.
Date published: 2026-04-28
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Microwave has great features I love the instant buttons for cooking foods. I also like that the Sharp microwave has a childproof door lock. The inside of the microwave is large enough to cook more foods than most microwaves. Price cost was also a determining factor, it was affordable. Also, the size of the microwave fit perfectly in my new kitchen,

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great microwave for the office We purchased this microwave to replace an older appliance from another brand. I like that the Sharp microwave is quiet! It seems to cook evenly and has been reliable and easy to use. I like that the child lock feature is easy to turn off.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great High-end Replacement I had a different brand for a few years, didn't last long, before the insides started to peel off. That's dangerous and how much of that got in our food. I found this on Amazon at a good price and it came next day. It's great. All the bells and whistles. Well made and stylish too.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from sharp 1.1 cu ft micorwave This microwave is compact, space saving, and looks and feel like my old panasonic microwave that I brought many years ago. The primary reason it has stainless steel and much lighter color compared to the black one. The control panel is logical and easy to use.
Date published: 2026-04-14
Rated 5 out of 5 by from So far, so good I like this microwave, and find the heating to be consistent, which is great. Also, I found it very easy to disable the child lock, as that is an unnecessary feature in my home. I hope it lasts a long time!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A very powerful product! The product makes everyday cooking and heating very easy. The food cook's evenly. Great product!
Date published: 2026-04-14
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice Looking Microwave. So far, so good. Easy to operate. Although I would have preferred a white interior, the interior light is bright enough for me to see my oatmeal as it is cooking. Since it took my previous 1100 watt microwave 3 minutes to cook popcorn kernels in my silicone pop corn popper, I'm surprised this 1000 watt microwave takes only 2 minutes! I use the microwave at least 4 times a day. Although I don't expect it to last 20+ years like the microwave I bought in 1984, I certainly hope it will last 10 years.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Performance To date. this modest sized microwave has performed perfectly in service of every required need. No complaints.
Date published: 2026-03-19
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect solution I reviewed ten or more with similar features and compared prices across many places. The value for the money is better than is expected. The features of this microwave are perfect.
Date published: 2026-03-06
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!

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.
