Product Description
This microwave may be mid-sized but that doesn't stop it from being a cooking powerhouse. 6 cook options, 6 reheat options, and 4 defrost options make it a real performer for today's busy lifestyles.

Summary: Excellent buy! 2010-08-19
Comment: The Sharp microwave we ordered came promptly and was immediately put to good use. It works well, is just the right size for our family of 6 and is a handsome addition to my kitchen. Also, the price was right. I have since seen the same model in stores and it's always been $10 more than I paid from Amazon.com.

Summary: very disappointed 2010-08-19
Comment: We bought this microwave based on having had good luck with Sharp products and its appearance and its price. The microwave was a disappointment from the start. The motor sounds like it's about to die. We are unable to get microwave popcorn popped with any accuracy. It is either burnt or there are dozens of unpopped colonels in the bag. I should have returned it right away, and I don't know why I didn't, but it's too late now. It is inconsistent in its heating of other food as well. No problems with Sharp before, so maybe just a lemon.

Comment: Ordered (2) of these through Amazon supplier & they both arrived with a dent in the left side. Returned both for a refund. What a waste of time!

Summary: Only one day: So far, so good! 2010-08-13
Comment: It appears from studying the reviews that these are pretty good ovens when they work; but they sometimes arrive busted or break down early. Luckily, this one works on arrival, and we'll just have to see how far it struggles on into the future. I'm getting old enough that I now worry less about absolute appliance longevity. But still, DOA stories are grim to hear.
The oven is a nice-looking thing -- not massive construction, but it feels solid enough for practical purposes in the service of a sane cook. Controls are instinctively understandable -- better than average. For its compact outer size, it offers very decent interior room.
Power is stunningly high. It vigorously boils a cup of cold water in 35 seconds. Potatoes cook in half the time required by the gigantic 40-year-old GE it's replacing.
I doubt this one will live so long, but it costs 1/10 as much as that first generation of microwave ovens did. This means it can commit suicide in 4 years and still be better value than the primitive GE. If it blows up soon, I'll try to remember to come back here and file an outraged obituary like the others.
After a month:
Still working great. I feel more sanguine. Electronic gizzies that survive early infancy very often go for a long time.
So far, I have not had to use the manual except to get an overview at the beginning. The control scheme is as intuitive and intelligent in practice as it seemed in principle. Even multi-step routines like "Defrost" can be figured out as you go.
Now I wish my ancient GE had expired long ago so I could have had this earlier. We are ever so lucky they don't make 'em like they used to, gnome sane?
