Fantastic Produc
we live in a small Flat,this Appliance is a great space saving device,compact but with many features.Great value for Money.Strongly built.
Easy to use nice tidy compact microwave
Ordered and delivered within 24 hours this is a nice tidy compact microwave with easy to use instructions
Good microwave
Really good, however, the plastic coating is coming away from the frequently used buttons
Not very stable
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.

good value compared with other makes. i bought one of these years ago and it worked very well.
Easy to use microwave.
Good basic microwave, easy to use. Well packaged and arrived promptly. Does what it says on the tin really.
Disappointing delivery
Product good, delivery company just left it outside, despite having requested that it be left in the porch.
Very user friendly.
Lovely microwave especially the jacket potato setting which we use regularly makes things easier and looks good easy to use .

Lovely microwave, just wished it had been white inside, don’t like the dark colour. No complaints other than ths
Not for a partial sighted perso
This machine is not for a partially sighted person because the control pad is dark grey very hard to see otherwise ok
It does what it says it will do.
It’s simple easy to use .. Works brilliantly
I do a lot of jacket potatoes .. Small and compact
Does what it’s meant to do..
Looks the pa
Great microwave looks the part only thing on the down side you can’t for a standard dinner plate in it it’s too small little annoying when trying just to heat a dinner already plated up
Great value great item.

Good stuff. Sleek design, easy to use, and reasonable price. Happy about this purchase!
She loves it and finds it very easy to use
eplaced my 82 year old mothers sharp microwave. She loves it and finds it very easy to use.
Perfect … almos
Perfect. This has replaced my old larger combi microwave that actually wasn’t broken, just old, worn, too large and quite honestly I hadn’t used the oven and grill part for years.
This new microwave is smaller, but large enough to enable me to use my large dish and 3 litre jug still (I bought a microwave to fit round them) …… as a lot of microwaves are really small inside. We chose black for a change (always have had white) and it looks quite stylish in the kitchen. Given me more room too.
UPDATE
From my first review of this microwave which I found to be perfect, there is one huge issue I’ve since discovered. CONDENSATION! I’ve never had a microwave do this before and my previous one was a Sharp too and had no issues. Is it the colour? First time I chose not to have a white one. It literally runs with water every time it’s used and the floor of the machine collects a humongous puddle.
I’ve therefore knock 2 stars off my original review – 1 star for the condensation and the 2nd star for having to keep mopping it all up!!
So no I wouldn’t buy this model again.
Fantastic value.
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.
Good purchase
Bought this for my 92 year old Uncle very easy to operate quite compact yet big enough for a dinner plate Ideal
for his small kitchen He is delighted with i

So far so good! Very powerful I feel like I need to use it for 30 seconds to a minute less than I would other microwaves I’ve used!
This one also fits into my counter perfect. Full functionality and very easy to use
I am not sure if there is any significant difference between microwaves. I have been using Sharp as long as I can remember. This one also fits into my counter perfect. Full functionality and very easy to use.
No problems
A little smaller than my old one but it works fine
It works well
We’ve had it for over a month now and it seems to work well for family use. The size is good – not too big. Also, having a timer that you can use for anything is a useful feature.

Been very good thus far. Adequate amount of settings. Gets a little wet/steam inside.
very good
Came quickly good strong product and sits smart on the work top love i
Basic but with style. Wanted a small microwave as only gets used to re-heat and this one is perfect. 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.

Good product easy to use my only problem is that after microwave the condensation never evaporate.
Arrived much quicker than expected. Easy to work and big enough to fit a dinner plate or a 1 litre measuring jug. Does build up a lot of condensation during use so having to wipe down the insides after each use but other than that no problems.

It’s a good little microwave. You do have to leave the door open for 5 after you use it.
Great purchase
Does the job! Compact and not too loud. Sharp do the best microwaves!
Easy to use and good
Its works well, had it a year and no problems. Easy to use and good powe

Bought this for my Mum.
She uses it a lot and is working perfectly.
Not sure why there is only a one year warranty but so far it’s had no issues and it’s been over a year.

I can’t believe it has a reheat coffee or tea button. Very good quality for the money and it has very handy functions.
small microwave
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.

Glad I purchased this microwave, it works well, more compact on my work surface, easy to clean, and when it has finished it’s cooking time gives 5 bleeps, moisture does build up, but the oven can use the fan on OP setting to dry the oven (not on cooking mode).
Bought to replace the last of a series of R259s which appears to have been discontinued. A perfectly adequate machine but the turntable system is not as good and the control panel is more difficult to use.
Just what I was looking fo
Just what I was looking for… a bit slippery when I put it on the countertop.

I wanted a simple no frills microwave. This is it for me. It also looks good and the interior appears to be stong and hopefully won’t rust easily like my previous two did.

Well designed and fully packaged product. Works well and meet my needs.
Good microwave, but noisy!
Works like a microwave! My only gripe is the several beeping noises it makes when times up…it’s that loud it wakes my child when she’s napping, so have to be in kitchen to press stop before it beeps!

Very good purchase. My old one was getting abit beyond its’ sell by date, and this a worthy replacement. No probs with the selle
Very pleased with this little microwave, bought it to replace a new flatbed microwave that was absolutely useless. This one is excellent value, easy to use and does the job.
Does exactly what i needed it to do, no complaints worth every penny.
Provides features we need in a small microwave. Easy to operate and very efficient.

Much better than the Tower microwave we originally purchased and returned. 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.

It microwaves but it seems to hold a lot of moisture inside, which I have not experienced before. Have to kitchen towel the inside after making my porridge if not opening the door immediately to let out the steam.

Nice small smart microwave that does the job it is required to do.
This was a replacement for exactly the same model which we used for more than 10 years. The fact that its still in production speaks for itself. It does everything we want from a microwave oven and the controls are clear and simple – unlike many microwave ovens I have come across.
Compact and very efficient micro
This was bought for my elderly neighbour who loves it she just needed getting used to the touch screen controls.
Rather smaller than I expected.
Should have got a bigger size, tends to steam up a bit much. However does the job.

A very good buy, has not disappointed us so far, it has very good functions and is easy to use. Seems like a durable microwave brand from what I have seen.
It arrived a day earlier.
It was well packaged.
I just plugged it in and it worked like a dream.
Almost identical to my previous one so I didn’t have to learn too much new stuff. The instructions that came with it were *real* instructions!
Very pleased.
sharp microwave.
brilliant machine, my old one was on the way out.
( I miss the clock for telling the time) its a excelle
I have had one of these previously, although its not exactly the same, ( I miss the clock for telling the time) its a excellent produc
Good for a new home
It arrived very quickly, which was much needed for our new house. The settings weren’t immediately intuitive but they’re all good now.
Good value for money
Good value for money, one touch button for named items reheats and cooks perfectly, e.g hit frozen veg button put your 1/5 a day in comes out perfectly cooked… Easy to use control panel ..
Perfect Buy
Very good and reliable product. Compact, goes with most decors and powerful – cannot complain!
does its job
Works ok which is the main point however looks a bit tinny.
Very smart looking came quickly works well, one issue is that it’s quite small inside compared to my old microwave, also you are best to wipe inside after use as it holds a lot of condensation.
I bought this on a rash consumer decision as price was reduced and it looked smart, and old microwave had died after 10 years of great service, hope this one does the same.
Quick delivery and easy to use
Arrived next day after order and so far seems value for money. Thanks
Add Amazon 3Year cover for £9, no brainer.
So far so good, we will see. But don’t forget to add Amazon 3Year cover for 9, it is a no brainer at that price, so 49 for the microwave plus 9 for the cover equals 58 and gives total no worry for three years.
Sharp microwave
There is nothing wrong with this microwave, but I just don’t like it very much, having had a Panasonic previously. Gets very wet inside from the steam.

excellent; it’s the second Sharp that I have had; the first one was also excellent and met my requirements.
bought for my mum when her old one went bang (literally!) – she loves it .. she is 87 so finds it uncomplicated and easy to use
Nice small microwave. Works well. Smallest increment is 10 secs, would prefer 1 sec, but not really a problem.
Happy microwave mama
Happy with this microwave. Had a Sharp one for 24 years so chose Sharp again. Only wish it beeped once only when I can open door, as beeping more than necessary for peaceful kitchen work and beeps loudly.
Good MW
Good basic MW, need to make sure you let the steam out after long programmes or it gets a bit dirty. Have two, both working well.
Good value fo
space saving – efficient – did not have to choose power level first on my old one but expect I will get used to it!! Good value for money
Lovely microwave. Not as sturdy as old one which was 30 years old. Tends to move about when opening and closing door. Steams up during use but soon clears when door left open. Considering it is an 800 watt, would have thought it would cook quicker than my old 600 watt but it doesn’t. Perhaps the old microwave wasn’t performing correctly. Makes lovely porridge
Convenie
This is the second R272SLM we have purchased after our Son blew up the first one. We like it as it’s fairly simple to use and not too bulky.
Does everything our old and bigger one did.
Bought this to replace our broken ‘sharp’ microwave which has been fantastic and is why we went for another Sharp.
This one is a little bit smaller than our old one but still takes our plates and items we used before.
It looks very smart and fits on our worktop better than the bigger one.
Great space saving Microwave
Great Microwave, purchased for a small space in the kitchen and fits perfectly.
Been using for a few months now and everything is fine – recommended
Bought 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 Sharp product, what more need be said ?
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.
Microwave
Though the first one was delivered damaged,despite adequate packaging, obviously this was the couriers fault not the item. and a replacement was sent swiftly. That is now installed in our kitchen working well, it has a number of features, but works just as well in basic mode.
good quality
good replacement microwave, price is right and easy to use, no issues thus far well built and compact good for smaller spaces
Good high power microwave however one of issues is that it has 1min step autostart, 30 sec would have been better. Beyond that I don’t use much functionality so not much to comment. BTW it has a kitchen timer which is handy.
Really good microwave I wanted a small one as I only have a small kitchen,
only fault is the digital front snags easily when pushing the buttons and soon looks scruffy, which is a shame when you have a new product.
A good solid microwave.
I like that it warms plates too.
Just beware that the front and rear feet are not in line and can prove difficult if you’re wall mounting on brackets.
Arrived quickly, looks good.
I bought this to replace broken one in a holiday cottage so haven’t used it myself other than to set the time. But looks good so I’m happy so far.
i like this microwave its the right size, its white for the kitchen, the microwave does what we wont it to do.
he product is well designed and finishing is just beautiful.
It is little smaller than what we were expected. overall we just love it
Sharp is just my favourite brand, thanks for all
My last Sharp microwave lasted 27yrs so I decided once again to go with Sharp as most of small microwaves would not take my meat plates of 261/2cm or were too low for my jug of 12cm. With this one I can fit in both my plate and jug, seperately of course. I only had manual operating but have got used with this one now having had it since 21st May and am getting to like all it has to offer compared with my old model.
My boyfriend figured how to do the timer on this before I did and I’m the one that figures these things out. The instructions didn’t even tell me how to do it. Love the child lock on it though atleast I know my children won’t be playing with it.
