 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.
works great November 24, 2007

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.
Excellent value! March 12, 2007

Much better price then most of the name brand models (approx. $300). Probably better quality the the cheap generic ones (goldstar,ropper etc.)Mine arrived not working, so i called technical support to see if there was a fuse or something that i could try. I was on hold quite a while so i took off one of the panels and saw that where the power cord attached to the circuit board was unplugged. So i reached in with a these very long forceps that i had and plugged it back in and it worked great.
Misses......
The exhaust fan is VERY loud, with only one setting. Perhaps the other similar models are loud too, i can not say.
The timer and clock use the same button for setting (just in a different order) so it's really easy to accidentally set the clock. Ours never says the right time because of this.
VERY HEAVY! You definitely should get some help installing this. You also must have an upper cabinet or soffit to install too. Maybe all the others are heavy too, I don't know for sure.
My only other complaint is that it doesn't come with the filter for the exhaust fan so you can use it without a vent. They could surely throw one of those in to sweeten the deal.
Pluses.....
Very powerful.
Exhaust fan works great!
Very good cook top light.
Nice looking.
Timer feature is good to have. I use it a lot.
Definitely saves kitchen space.
Better buy then any other name brand model and not much more expensive then the cheapo brands.
Excellent value for price November 4, 2006

Purchased the microwave 3 months ago - no problems, so far. Microwave is easy to install - it's heavy, though, so you'll need 2 people for the install. One thing it did not come standard with that most over-the-range units do is the filter for recirculating air. (If your home is not vented for the over the range microwave, you will need this filter.) You can buy it for $6 from Sharp on-line. The keypad is not as "pretty" as some of the other more expensive units, but that's something I could look past for the $200 in savings. Other than that, no complaints with the microwave. This unit was an excellent price, and has out preformed my last microwave. I would recommend it!
