Sharp Carousel Microwave,

This review is from: Sharp R-1880LS Over The Range Microwave Convection Oven (Kitchen)
This is a remodel of a proven favorite. It's easy to understand and use, with predictable results. The new packaging is very modern and clean.
My only disappointment is the LCD display. It has a very highly-directional viewing angle, focusing down to facilitate use by shorter people. If standing near the display, I must stoop to read it. Otherwise, this item deserves a perfect "10".

This review is from: Sharp R-1880LS Over The Range Microwave Convection Oven (Kitchen)
I purchased this microwave/convection oven less than two years ago for my family's use. This consists of two people who work full time & the appliance was mainly used to do some baking and heat food, on occasion. A month ago the button broke. Sharp has no buttons in the United States to repair this appliance. The Sharp people in customer service never took notes so every time I called to try to find a new parts business, it was like the first time. Don't buy this appliance. It is cheaply made and Sharp has not maintained carrying an inexpensive part. It comes up as obsolete in the 12 parts places I have called. So, for almost $600 we have a two year old appliance but for a button, could work.
9/08/2011 - A customer service person at Sharp finally did the right thing. They said that it was odd that no one offered me a new oven and that I didn't have a record or complaint # for all the phone calls. They sent me a new oven for a small fraction of the original price,...Read more

This was such a good price for this particular item. I've compared the price online, and Amazon sold for by far the lowest price. Not to mention that there was no tax and no shipping fee.
The reason with 4 stars and not 5 is that power of this microwave is not that high. I had one from Panasonic with 1200 watt, and that was very nice until blew up after 7 years of hard work. I wanted a high power one, but they were too expensive.
The convection oven part is O.K. I've tested with some toffee cookies. Ones from my range/oven came out more moist inside and crisp outside. The convection oven dried the cookies, and they came out a bit too hard. Since I had only one oven before I bought this product, it is nice to have the second oven for the holiday seasons.
My old microwave was on the counter, and now I have so much more counter space. That's the part I love most of all.
