This is the second Sharp 1500 Watt Microwave we have owned. We purchased the second soon after first one developed problems after 8 years of satisfactory use. The new one seemed to be basically the same except for the extremely loud noise generated when the door is either closed or opened. I have hearing aids and do not appreciate the noise which sounds like a large tin box being dropped. Our earlier unit opened by pulling on the door. To open this one you have to push on a large lever which pops the door open. The mechanism is so stiff that the act of opening the door usually slides the oven across the counter into the backsplash. This is not an expensive unit but I think they could have done a little better on sound control.

5 out of 5 stars Great microwave, but wrong dimensions on website   March 13, 2008

This is a great microwave, I love all the features. My only problem is that the dimensions listed on the website have the height as: 17-1/4 and depth as: 12-1/4. Actually those numbers are reversed. This could have been a problem with our counter tops, but I like the microwave so well, that I got over the fact that it was deeper than I wanted. I've informed Amazon that they have misinformation on their website, but it hasn't been fixed as of the writing of this review.

4 out of 5 stars Sharp R-320HK 1200-Watt 1.2-Cubic-Foot Microwave, Black   March 9, 2008
Phil Mick (Philly suburbs)
Overall, a nice microwave. Pluses: it has all of the features that one could need, plenty of power, and a spacious interior, with large turntable.

Minuses: The auto buttons take a little getting used to, like the popcorn button, which left some unpopped kernels. The numbers on the keypad are a little hard to see in dim light.

I would recommend this microwave. Very nice.



4 out of 5 stars very satisfied   March 9, 2008
E. Singer (NY, NY USA)
Very pleased. I havent tried all the pre-programmed features yet, but it is very easy to use and seems to do a good job of heating things up. My prior microwave was pretty old and often took extra minutes to get things hot. This one works the first time and I actually sometime need to reduce the cooking time that I had grown accutomed to with the old one.
