    Been using it A LOT since it got delivered, even though it has some dents on its exterior (I already anticipated it because it’s not brand new).

    Compact, looks good, works really well. Does everything you could want of a microwave, we’re very happy with it.

    So far so good, unlike the Russell Hobbs one I bought which did not work out of the box! the Sharp one though worked from the go and heated up my burger in the time set, excellent bit of kit from a decent brand.

    Its small on the outside. but due to its great design, its huge inside. It will hold a full size casserole dish

    My old Sharp microwave was a very sturdy one but this new one is not as heavy or sturdy and when the button is pushed to open the door the Microwave moves back from it’s position on my work top. Not nearly as good as my old previous Sharp. Just as good in every other way.

    Does what it says on the tin! Compact but still fits dinner plates and sits nicely under kitchen units, amazing price, only slight downer is the door mechanism – it flies fully open when you press button, so be careful if you have anything too close! But for the price, fantastic value for money. Oh it’s quiet too.

It actually has a control button for perfectly re-heating a plated meal. Simple to use. It does come with easy controls for cooking popcorn, jacket potatoes and pizza, making this perfect for a student bedsit.

    It is quite dark and the door needs to be opened by pressing the button, hard, which results in the microwave moving across the worktop but I am sure I will get used to it. Good price for it’s size.

It functions well, has side ventilation so I use the top to store my coffee and tea. Great little thing that fits a standard dinner plate and we have not had any issues with it. The timer is handy, the buttons feel sturdy and it cooks everything as it should.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersBought this to replace the previous model, which had started to lose the enamel covering on the door, making it a fire risk. Operating-wise, this microwave is a copy of its predecessor, but with a couple of improvements. We have had Sharp microwaves for years and I cannot see that changing with this model. Only one improvement could be made…and that is the sitting of the turntable on its runners…it has to be exact, otherwise you will find it becoming derailed.

    it’s a good microwave.

    I know all manufacturers have a duff batch from time to time.

    But I can honestly say, I have not had a bad Sharp product yet.

    from stereo systems to video recorders (still got a working sharp video), and now microwaves.

    all in all very good.
