For the price I don't think you can beat this Sharp microwave. I just wanted a basic microwave that did the job. I was replacing a countertop micro that was rated at 1200 watts and I was concerned that the rated 950 watts of the Sharp would be inadequate. My fears were groundless as the Sharp functions every bit as fast the older one. I like the sleek appearance without a protruding door handle. They recommend two people to mount this oven, however since I didn't have help available I was able to easily mount it myself with a little thought. If I were to rate it down for anything it would be that the mounting instructions are confusing in a couple of areas, mainly in the venting info. All-in-all a good buy.


5 out of 5 stars Sharp R1406 Microwave   January 14, 2008

I did quite a bit of research before purchasing this microwave--what I was looking for was a dependable, nice-looking product that wouldn't break the bank. Since I use my microwave for the basics--heating, defrosting, popcorn--it wasn't necessary to have complex capabilities. This Sharp was very reasonable, so I was somewhat skeptical until I read the reviews. This is a wonderful oven--nice-looking and streamlined (no door handle sticking out), very even cooking (more so than my last microwave which was significantly more expensive and different brand), a good over-the-stove light (it's a single light that is just as effective as the two I previously had), large turntable, user-friendly features. At 950 watts, it cooks faster than my previous 1,000 watt oven. Additionally, the defrost feature actually defrosts meat and doesn't cook it. If I HAD to criticize something, I would have liked it to have one rack in the center in addition to the turntable, as I microwave a lot of long glass dishes, but now I just remove the turntable and that works fine. It's also wee bit noisier than my other oven. Those two things, however, do not prevent me from giving it a 5-star rating. This is a GREAT oven in many ways at a very REASONABLE price!

I had a same model of microwave which worked for me about
4to 5 years very good and that was the reason I ordered the same brand and model again .
the new one so far has been very good too but the one way blocking door over the exhaust fan was noisy which I swapped it with the older one and fixed the problem overall is very good and I like it.

this was a great buy!! I read the other reviews and they are right on the money. Easy to put up but it goes easer with two people but one can do it and everything you need is their and it works great.
