 Great Microwave! I highly recommend it! December 27, 2007

I bought the Sharp R-520KS Microwave to replace my old White Westinghouse that stopped working after Thanksgiving. I did alot of research before I bought this one. I was worried I wouldn't find a microwave that worked as well as my last one. The good thing is that I could finally replace my white microwave with stainless steel to match the appliances in my new house. Now I had an excuse to replace it. I was looking for a powerful 1200 watt microwave large enough to fit large dishes in, and this one had some of the best reviews, a decent price, and the stainless steel look I wanted. I also needed a counter top model since I have no under cabinet space to put one. This microwave works great! I also like how the control panel doesn't have elevated buttons making it easy to wipe clean with no chance of food or anything getting stuck in the buttons. It has some nice features like the hot water button (you tell it how many cups to heat), minute plus button, keep warm setting, and many others. I've probably used the hot water and minute plus features the most. There are sensor heating buttons, reheat buttons, and defrost buttons, although I haven't had a chance to use them as much yet. The ones I have used so far work great! My only minor complaint is the same as everyone else's, the buttons all look the same and the start/minute plus button and stop/cancel button are located in the midst of all the other buttons making it difficult to distinguish them quickly. Not too much of an issue, but it would have been nice if those features were located on the bottom or the corner of the display and were different than the others. It wouldn't keep me from purchasing this microwave since everything else is great and I'm sure I'll get used to them soon. The microwave is also pretty large, so you can fit alot in there. I've heated a cup of water and a dinner sized plate of food at the same time. All in all, this microwave works great, looks great, and was reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a nice looking, powerful, counter top microwave.

I never got to use this microwave oven because the door would not stay shut. I had to send it back. Darn. Amazon was very helpful and took care of my problem. I am pleased with Amazon's service.

Earlier Sharp microwaves have been great, but this model beats the others we've had in features and speed--and this newer model cost a lot less. We haven't yet used all the features this microwave affords, but we know we're going to be saving a lot of cooking time

This is my second Sharp microwave, the first one faithfully served my family through 14-years of everyday use and it will be sorely missed. I settled on the R-520lk as a replacement which is basically the same thing except it's black in color. As others have stated the door is LOUD, and I don't care for the layout on the control panel. For one, the display is too small and the buttons are laid out kind of weird. Even after one-month of ownership I still haven't gotten used to the controls on this thing.
On the plus side, this microwave works very well and the sensor reheat function is exceptional. In fact, this feature alone is worth the cost! During the spring and summer my family practically lives off the barbeque and I always cook extra for lunches and "leftover night." Using sensor reheat, this microwave does a fantastic job of reheating pork, chicken, or steak, and it always comes out moist and tender just like it came off the grill.
Minor complaints aside, this is a pretty decent micro and definitely worth the money.
A fine microwave at a fantastic price March 28, 2007

Love it! Love it! Love it! My Sharp microwave of 10 years finally died. It had survived numerous moves and the door was actually held on by strapping tape. We looked around at other microwaves and found we couldn't beat the price for all the features offered by this model from. This one was built with the same quality as my old one and I don't doubt it will last as long.
