2 out of 5 stars Not enough oomph   September 19, 2008
Christopher Richards (Oakland, CA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I'd like to point out that this review is by a mere man. And when it comes to things of the kitchen my opinion doesn't count for much. I thought this microwave oven was just fine. I threw away the packaging in a fit of tidiness and confidence. I tried it out. It worked. What could possibly be wrong? We have had it now for three weeks and my wife has not stopped complaining. I didn't know that one could get so worked up about a microwave oven.

True, without my glasses I can't see which button to press. Yes, it does take longer to cook anything than our last microwave oven. And when I stumble, bleary eyed, into the kitchen in the middle of the night I have no idea what time it is because the clock doesn't light up.

Surely, patience is a virtue. Do we need to be in so much of a rush? Does one minute here, or two minutes there really make much difference? I can live with it. My wife can't. I don't think I can send it back without packaging if you want to know the truth. We are now into week three of being owners of this appliance, and my wife has not exhausted her ire against it. I feel my resolve on hanging onto it weakening. Women (who have strong opinions about these things) usually know best. I expect we'll have to get a something else with more oomph. Then once again, domestic bliss will reign in the kitchen.



1 out of 5 stars Complete RIP OFF, BUYER BEWARE!!!   August 22, 2008

ITEM IS A COMPLETE RIP OFF!!! BUYER BEWARE!!! Made in Thailand, should of been my first clue. It wasn't built to ul specs, many problems with it. That loud noise is the microwaves going everywhere but the inner chamber to heat the food, that and a burning smell, surprised I didn't burn down the kitchen. Never tripped the breaker, but had a nice headache. DO NOT BUY THIS.. I hope this is just a Knockoff of a real microwave, because if this is a Sharp, I won't ever buy one again.

1 out of 5 stars Too light   May 25, 2008

It's way too light and the metal and hard plastic feet do not grip a Formica countertop -- when you try to open the door, the oven slides all over.


3 out of 5 stars Noisy, little microwave-that-could   May 19, 2008

I bought this micro solely based on size, as it needed to fit inside a cabinet. and I was replacing a Sharp micro that had been good to me for many years. This little thing makes an inordiinate amount of noise while running, like it's trying really, really hard. Takes about 50% longer to do the same job, as well. It's certainly adequate if you only microwave the occasional item, but if you're a more heavy duty microwave user, I would suggest you look elsewhere.
