Verified Purchase:Yes

We bought almost the same oven years and years ago and have been enjoying it. However, after over 10 years it just decided to "retire." We wanted the same oven again and were thrilled to find it. It is large, cooks perfectly on micro and convection and pops every kernel of popcorn!
Only thing that changed is that it no longer has a handle (we used as a towel holder) across the top. Miss it.

Best Work Horse of a Microwave

on August 18, 2008

Posted by: intrepid

from New York, NY

I've owned this microwave for over ten years. It has been serviced twice. The last time for the carosel motor. It shut down again yesterday. I will call for service, but if it is a major repair, I will get a new one. It has not changed in the last ten years! Well, if that is the case, I will get it again. This is a great microwave. We don't use our oven except for roasting large turkeys.

What's great about it: Everything

What's not so great: None

Waste of time and effort

on March 15, 2010

Posted by: oldcaptain

from Murfreesboro, TN

I purchased this item thinking it would be a healthy and economical alternative to conventional cooking methods. Due to a lack of availabe counter space, this seemed like a viable option, replacing my current microwave on the counter. Well, I tried it for a weekend and returned it shortly thereafter. As a microwave, it functions normally, although the power seems quite weak for its listed wattage. As a convection oven, I couldn't see a benefit at all, since it took just as long to cook an item as it does in my conventional oven. As a compact oven/broiler, it took longer to preheat than my gas oven, and the cleanup was a major chore. Add to that the incredible heat that's transferred to the cabinet, and it's just not worth the time or effort it takes to use it. The user manual/cookbook is very confusing, and offers very limited options.

What's great about it: The hype

What's not so great: Price, weight, difficulty to clean, complexity of use

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Sharp Won Me Over

on April 17, 2015

Posted by: Windbag

Verified Purchase:Yes

After researching micro/convections we choose the Sharp. GE was a close runner up but there are behind on production and did not want problems with parts and service. Glad we went with Sharp. Love the funtionality and options. Looks great, not too loud, low wattage but cooks fast.

Great Sharp Microwave

on January 5, 2011

Posted by: hubcap40

from Homestead, Fl

Have had my Sharp Microwave convection oven for over 15 years. Never had a problem with it. I got my watch caught in the little door hooks and broke them off so I decided to get a replacement. Used the old one everyday, it was absolutely great so I decided to buy another one just like it. I'm glad Sharp decided to leave this great design alone. Took me years to use most of the features, never got to some.

Next to my hardwired Ma Bell telephone this device is the most cost efficient, quality device I have ever owned.

Waiting anxiously for my new unit to be delivered.

What's great about it: Absolutely everything

What's not so great: Absolutely nothing
