 Died after six months of light use April 5, 2008

We lightly used this microwave about 6 months before it went "POP!" one day while heating some soup. After that, it never turned on again.
 Wonderful item, quick shipping March 10, 2008

While consumer guides have found the features and controls on the Sharp only ho-hum, we love it. That's because it works well and doesn't break down. In 20 years, we've owned four small Sharp "carousel" microwaves, each of which lasted for five years with no problems. Compared to our other home appliances, this is pretty impressive. My only complaint is that even the little models keep getting bigger. Since we used ours to heat leftovers and defrost things, all we need is something small and dependable.
 A GREAT suprise! February 19, 2008

When I ordered my Sharp R-230 kw 800 Watt 4/5 - Cubic foot Compact Microwave Oven I was in doubt because what I read about it. But it's perfect for me. That's why I must give it 5 STARS!
Good smaller microwave February 10, 2008
M. Munch (San Jose, CA USA)
A lot of reviewers have been disappointed with this microwave so I'd like to add my perspective. I needed a small microwave for the second home and looked at every 0.8 cu ft one I could find in the stores. This Sharp was the best made, making it the clear winner in its size class. In use, it has the fairly intuitive Sharp interface, heats decently at 800 watts and has performed well for for reheating, defrosting, warming plates, and other simple tasks. The only negative is that due to the light weight of the smaller size, the rotating tray comes off the track if I slide things in or out. Comparing this microwave to my GE over the stove microwave is like comparing a KIA to a BMW. The 0.8 cu ft Sharp does the job, but I don't expect it to be as well made or as much a pleasure to use as the one I paid 8X as much for.
Works well but has design flaws February 8, 2008

We needed a small microwave to fit in a specific area. There aren't may choices out there that had good customer ratings. This unit replaced a GE which was 10 years old, and a far better overall design, but no longer available. This unit functions ok, although not very powerful. The big complain is that they put it on four hard plastic feet, so even the slightest key press, or even worse trying to open the door, it slides across the counter. Even pushing it up against a wall doesn't solve it because the back panel is irregular and pushing the door open button causes it to slide back on the right side. The designers of this unit could have not possible every used it.
