 Worked great - for three weeksSep 06, 2010
We have had a couple of Sharp Carousel microwaves in the past and have always been very happy with their performance, so this is the first brand we went looking for when shopping for our son. That, evidently, was the Sharp of years ago. This worked well for our son in his new apartment - for precisely three weeks. He tried to make microwave mac-n-cheese one afternoon, and the microwave started smoking. This was about a 4 minute process, and the product was specifically designed to be cooked in the microwave. Afterwards, it made a horrible noise and would no longer heat. We bought it here online, so of course, no original packaging three weeks after it was delivered and first used. In essence, we paid $100 for three weeks worth of usage. Not worth our time to try and find a Sharp dealer and possibly pay again for a repair. Now we're off to Wal-Mart to find a replacement brand. We will never buy another Sharp again, nor will we be likely to buy appliances online again.
My adivice? AVOID this one.Sep 05, 2010
Bought this based on excellent reviews here, and it DOES cook well, WHILE it works.
Got it in Dec. of 2008, used SPARINGLY....it stopped heating last night.
Ran like normal, but made a funky smell, and wouldn't heat.
I'm out of the standard warranty (1 year), but the magnetron is still covered.
This is PROBABLY the magnetron (part that actually heats the food),
but may also be other parts. I researched this, and people are not happy with
Sharp's service, ie, needing to carry it in, often hundreds of miles away.
PLUS, labor is NOT covered, so I could easily spend as much as a new unit.
Prior to the Sharp,I had a Panasonic given to me, that was probably 20 years old, never a hiccup,
Two thumbs down to Sharp!

You wanna looksharp?? Then you have to have a sharpchoice. This fantastic appliance not only change the look of your kitchen, also make a huge impact/difference on your daily life. 1100 watt add more power for a faster result with a grrrrrrrrreat 1cu-ft capacity. I loooooove it and I believe, you too.
Excellent buy!Aug 19, 2010
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.
 very disappointedAug 19, 2010
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.
