This is our second Sharp R959SLMAA Combination Microwave Oven, the first one that has been used ever day for the last eight years and the oven side was still working just the Microwave that had given in. I can’t praise this oven enough as it’s very hard to fined a 40L combination oven that you doesn’t need a second mortgage.
Bought this model as previous one lasted 20 years.Slightly upgraded with the oventrays but more or less the same.Hope this lasts as long being used every day
Delivered as promised. Plug and play as no set up. Hand book has all info if you need it. Does everything you need. For a couple who do simple cooking this and a kettle is all you need.
had the last unit for 10 years , replaced with same module.
I have used sharpe microwave The first one 20yrs ago but moved abroad so had to sell it n ifor 4yrs then gave it to my brother this is the 3rd one i have bought after trying 2 other makes but they did not come up to the standard of the sharpe so got rid and bought this one
This is the 2nd one of these that we have purchased. The first being 15+ yrs ago.
Mainly used as a microwave but the oven option is useful.
Originally purchased as we were short on space so the oven was used a lot.
There are a few minor updates in comparison to our original but only to bring the item up to date. Cleans easily.
Firstly, a word to the Driver. Despite the rush drivers have to be in he took the time to bring the (very large) parcel into our house and place it where we need it. For that we say Thankyou. Excellent service.
The Sharp Combination Oven is a larger than normal microwave cooker. It can handle a roast chicken with ease. The quality of the build looks to be very good with the door not dropping on its hinges as our previous model did.
Once we have had chance to use it more i will come back with a more detailed review and opinion.
This is my 3rd one!!!, I’ve always had this one as it’s really good at everything !!!!, I cannot speak high enough of this microwave/ oven !!!!.
I was buying this model years and years ago!!!!, still as just as reliable , sturdy, and looks good to!!!
Purchased to replace an older model whose display had stopped working, but the all the functions still working
Vast Majority Of Kitchen Cooking For Four plus pets. Two Years & Three Months Use. Failed this week light,microwave & oven functions failed.Fan, Display,Turntable & Grill Heater Function.Previous Model had one repair after 10years replaced at 14 Years
This is a replacement for the same model which I bought years ago and was satisfied enough to buy the same one agai
This microwave oven is my second one, exactly the same. I use all the functions of this oven especially convection. I bake cakes, cook casseroles, grill chops, defrost meat etc. If you have the space on your kitchen for it, I highly recommend this microwave oven.
I have just purchased my second oven. The first one did sterling service, I do not have a full sized oven during the summer ( Rayburn in winter) so this was my main means of cooking roasts, baking, etc. The oven is a good size, quick and easy to use, pre programmed buttons are a brilliant help when you are busy. The microwave is also very efficient and there is plenty of room on the turntable. Being stainless steel inside it is easy to keep clean as long as you wipe it out daily. The only fault I can find is the oven temperature registers in greater stages than I would like, a bit trial and error to start with but you will soon get the hang of using it.
I have previously bought this model three times which lasted over a period of thirty years.
It is versatile, easy to clean, easy to operate and cooks well. It is large enough to have two oven shelves when operating as a conventional oven and is invaluable as a second oven when a lot of cooking is to be done. Looked at similar models for comparison but bought this for a fourth time. I love it.
So far so good
Thank you very much for your great service.
Bought this make and model before and basicaly wore it out. Bought the same again because I liked it so much.
The purchase of this item was to replace a similar older model which was purchased in 2004.It is a wonderful versatile machine that my wife would not be without,highly recommended!!Not inexpensive by any means but well worth the outlay.We look forward to many more years of trouble free use from this latest model.
Had the same model as previously, only exchanged as modernising the kitchen. Find this looses heat more quickly when opening the door to check on food, and doesn’t seem to heat up again to requested temperature?
I bought this oven as a replacement for the original Sharp all-in-one microwave/convection/grill unit which we have owned and used several times a day for 20 years. I can’t live without it and neither can my husband. When the old one started making a funny rumble we agreed that it had given us superb service and it was time to retire it. The only reason I scored the new on 4 stars rather than 5 was because Sharp has removed the clock which we found very useful though it makes no difference to the operation of the machine. I thoroughly recommend this product.
This is built in in our holiday apartment. It’s the 3rd one we’ve had in 12 years. Looks great and guests always happy with it. Each one has had to be replaced because microwave starts arcing. Not sure if guests used metal by mistake. No repair agent on our island but at around 240 (no VAT here) it still offers reasonable value for money
Super product with only 1 minor gripe in that the door tends to fall over time (this is my 4th unit)
Had three of these over a twenty year period. Having used other combination ovens I believe this to be the best combination microwave on the market.
This is my third one of the convection microwaves by Sharp and they have all been more a less the same just slight changes. I have found them to be reliable and long lasting and only if this range was not available would I buy a different one.
This was the only microwave / oven the met our height requirement. It replaced the same model that finally “died” after 12 years hard service. No complaints at all with performance or reliability
I had the same microwave for the past 20 years and. Just upgraded to the new one! Delighted
Very good product much cheaper to use than a conventional ove
This order replace the same one that I have had for over ten year great machine.
Versatility – indispensable in my kitchen. This is the third one I’ve owned in about 20 years. I cried when a recent leak in my kitchen roof ruined my previous one. I was relieved to find Sharp still make this model. No other Combi oven comes close in my opinion. The clarity and range of controls, the interior space, it’s all great. There is only 1 thing that could make it better – make it a flatbed – that’s all. Don’t change the controls or the size, just take away the turntable (it was that mechanism that went on my 1st one and water damage seized up my 2nd).
Easy to clean – a quick wipe down after each use will serve you well and keep the great view through the door pristine.
Easy to use – as I mentioned above, the control panel is pretty much self-explanatory but thankfully there is also a comprehensive booklet.
Excellent product, except for one thing – the round white ceramic turntable marks very easily and is horrendous to clean. A clear ‘glass’ one would be so much easier.
I have had this one a couple of years ago very happy with one again .
Easy to use, many functions and quiet. My wife had the previous model which worked well for many years and she was pleased to have this as a replaceme
This product is one that I have used before. I like the fact it is very large and a combination product. It is quite bulky but worth it in terms of how easy the microwave is to use and number of functions. My parents also have one and theirs has lasted in the family home for some years.
This is the third oven i have owned of this model, unfortunately it is being stopped production. I liked this model.
For us, the most used is the oven for roasting and cake cooking. Great results every time with the food being cooked evenly throughout. No burnt on one side and undercooked on the other. This is the second one for us to buy, the first one lasted for 7 years with daily use, fantastic in every way until it failed, so rather than have it repaired we chose to have a new one. Highly recommended.
I am one very happy customer, brilliant combi. Quick, efficient and baguettes are banging when done in it.
This replaces an almost identical Sharp Combination Oven. My last one lasted over 10 years making it really good value. The fact that the only visible change is the trays as opposed to racks on previous model is a clue these must be successful. I love this combination oven, has alot of functions but I especially like the express cook features for joints and chickens etc. You can express cook a 2kg chicken in 50 minutes and as its combi cooking it grills it to give a crispy skin. This is our main use for product but also the convection setting like an ordinary cooker is also very useful. Easy enough to clean, clean regularly. Includes recipe book. Delivered very quickly from Hughes. Very pleased .
This is the 3rd one of these I have had over the last 19 years. I had it built in to a unit in the kitchen when I had it revamped, therefore the dimensions are perfect to replace it if needed, without getting a professional in again. It is ideal being a microwave, oven and grill and it is a great size at 40Litres. It’s easy to use and I hope Sharp continue to make this model for a long time.
This is the third one of these we have purchased. The old one was at least 20 years old but needed some attention. This oven is our sole oven and does it very well. It ticks all the boxes, oven cooks microwaves and grills. What more do you need, probably not for a family.
This is the third time I’ve bought this model so speaks for itself
Super all round cooking so good keep old model in garage for extra cooking
This is the best microwave I have ever had, and it is the second one I have had. The first one lasted more than 10 years.
The large interior space enables you to cook most items. For me it is simple to use with a One minute quick heat butto
Very good, but I’m still learning how to time the cooking of different foods.
It replaces one exactly the same which I have had for many years and would not like to be without.
As a single man this microwave oven is everything I need. I can cook multiple things at a time all in one go. I think if you’re anything more than one man (or woman) band then it’s probably not going to be big enough for you for cooking multiple things at a time though.
My one one tiny complaint would be that, although you can increase the time while the oven is running, the second it stops there is no way to tell it you just want another 5 minutes. You have to go around the cycle of pre-heating first which might not sound bad but pre-heating uses everything this oven has got to get the oven up to temperature so don’t think you can just leave your food in there while it’s pre-heating. It will burn, as I found out.

There’s nothing to dislike about this product, I use it purely for domestic purposes, but Im convinced it so versatile it could be used for much more. It’s a superb machine.
This is the third unit we have had over many years.The design has not changed much and this does everything superbly.A biggish unit but can get big roast in.Used daily as microwave and extra oven.This came very quickly and we are very pleased with the service
This is the same as the one I had before and so far- it’s just as good
This is such a versatile oven. I can cook a roast dinner for 4 adults in it, or just heat up by microwave my cup of tea! The capacity is amazingly large. I had to have a replacement on this microwave, because the door dropped slightly, but Amazon were great at replacing it. I have had this model for years and rate it so highly that I wouldn’t change it for another brand.
I had a similar model combination/microwave when I lived abroad but left it behind – it served me well for 16 years. Was thrilled to find a this model here in the UK and the price is excellent value for money.
Cosmetically the finish is stylish and elegant. There are a number of preset programs which are all easy to use and work well for their purpose. Love that it has 2 x solid trays making convection cooking a big meal possible. I’d prefer to be able to set any temperature of my choosing but it seems that I can only select pre-programmed temperature settings, so when it comes to wanting a temperature setting of say 150 degrees it appears that this is not possible.
I found that when grilling (eg cheese on toast) one needs to correctly align the food item underneath the grill area to ensure even grilling – you cannot fill the tray with slices of toast with cheese as they will not grill evenly.
The white turntable plate needs a good scrub to get it clean – seems splashes become baked in. I wipe down the inside of the unit after every use, but there are still “stains” on the back wall – these do not come off.
Overall, I love my Sharp Combination Microwave and am well pleased with my purchase.

I have a big problem my conventional microwave has started making a terrible noise and today after using the oven there is a terrible smell. As I have not had it for a year yet can you please help.
Bought this as a replacement for the previous model which had ceased to function. Highly versatile and functional.
This is my third sharps microwave the same model every time it was 40 years ago when I got my first one and would recommend sharps as I think they are the bes
Great value we only have a small kitchen so is excellent. The old oven was removed and the space is now a cupboard.
This is a large all round oven with microwave and grill. Use oven for smaller dishes or as an extra oven for a large amount. I’ve had a few of these ovens as they are the biggest. However the downside is the microwave option is always the first to fail.
We run two of these and have done for about the last 15 years. Make no mistake these are brilliant and I personally would have any thing else, with the versatile menu and combination of cooking methods you can save hours on cooking time, for instance a fluffy inside crispy outside jacket spud about twenty mins.
We don’t have another oven and have never missed one as these are much more versatile as for cost the last one cost less than the first one about fifteen years ago in reality they have dropped in price
Dont dislike anything about it its great this is the third one we have had
over a number of years.
the second one still going strong at our grandsons
It is an exact replacement as with my old one (5 years old) the convection oven was no longer working and I needed extra cooking space over christmas.The problem is that from the start there is a loud vibrating noise when in use. Yes I have tried it on different surfaces, checked that it is level etc etc. It works but it is noisy.
Just the best you can buy it can do everything you could ever want it to do
Having used several models and makes since microwaves first came out, this is by far the best. Sharp have produced this large machine with many functions, which we use instead of the main cooker. We’ve done everything from heating milky drinks, porridge in the bowl, toasted sandwiches, to cakes, roast dinners and ready meals! Can’t fault it on any of these. Be aware that it’s BIG, so be sure to have room for it on your worktop!
I use my microwave daily. Particularly like it for cooking jacket potatoes and chicken as it not only cooks these foods but crisps them up as well.
Really liked this model as it had it large shelves and would take some big baking sheets, and also would go down to 40C for fast proving bread.
Our original one stopped microwaving after 7 years so ordered the same model from amazon, next day as we use it a lot.
New one turned up after 2 days, plugged it in and put on to preheat – tripped the house electrics!,
Reset the power and Microwave has no display – dead.
Still waiting on the exchange from amazon, 4 days now without a microwave.
Had one of these before and when I moved I gave it to my parents. Could not wait to get one again, great size and convenient exceptional cooking versatility- the best combination microwave I’ve seen on the market.
perfect appliance when you do not have a regular oven due to space.
No uncomplimentary comments. It’s perfect.
his is now my second one, and there are some subtle changes but nothing to worry about, it still cooks everything including a whole chicken to bowl of soup perfectly. It is a qaulity product with a shelf life of around 5 years before it starts tripping the fuses in my case. Not sure how to fix the old one but I have kept it in the garage for spare parts. Easy to clean, easy to use – makes lovely baked potatoes and the oven can be used in tight spaces with the use of an external fan to disperse heat.
I bought this oven for my Son. I already have one and find it superb it is rather heavy and quite large but once in situ it is very versatile as you can cook anything in it. Son is very pleased with it he now doesn’t need a large oven in his kitchen, just a hob.
combi cooker was just what I wanted, I’d had an exact one before for cooking so I knew exactly what it would do
This is our 2nd unit in six years, it’s a must, as my wife can’t use a normal floor-standing oven, but she loves this one.
Good microwave, no problems with it, really easy to use and clean. Very pleased with it would happily recommend it to others.
This is my favorite microwave oven combi as it can easily roast a Turkey for Christmas and I do not need an oven. My old one’s door broke and due to Amazon prime I could have a new one on the next day.
I bought this Microwave because it was exactly the same as my old one which was excellent
Unfortunately it arrived damaged. I was desperate for a new microwave so I bought one from a local shop, a Samsung which is not quite as good as Sharp.
I now have another sharp thats undamaged. I would recommend them always. I have had sharp microwaves and combi from the very start of microwaves
I have had this microwave before this new one although met my expectations seem to take longer to cook I don’t know why
This is a repeat of previous microwave/model I was replacing , couldnt live without it so found same old model still available!!!
Great no new learning how to operate a new device.!
I have had the older version of this one for some time. Finally died and after looking at others couldn’t find one that has the same space and shelves inside. Very happy to have this i dont use my normal oven at all now.
This microwave is bigger than my previous sharp model but very happy with it. Very easy to use & with auto cook functions.
Bought as a back up for when my old one dies. That one is a previous model and is over 10 years old
he delivery was nice and quick and product itself is great i wanted a microwave with a big capacity and thats what i got. all the features work great. its made a big difference to me to have a convection oven on this model and not have to use my big main oven the grill is powerful also. only bad thing for me was the convection oven shelves, they are solid metal and i think i was expecting grill type shelves but i think that was just my expectations more then anything great great product and very powerful
This seems to be a good appliance however it can be difficult to remove hot dishes when using racks
his combination microwave is brilliant. I ve just bought a second one. the turntable cooks evenly…. i have invested in round baking trays for even cooking as the ones provided have to be turned part way through cooking. I did a lot of research before I bought the first one. I found it to be the most versatile Combination microwave for the price. I no longer need a conventional cooke
This easy to use unit for cooking grilling defrosting or microwave cooking is an everyday used unit which uses much less power than our built -in cooker . and always give good results .
Our current unit is the third we have purchased in 24 years and the two units we replaced are still working being used by friends whom we passed them onto
I bought this for our office because of the versatility of use and size. It is perfect in all functions. Really like the oven shelves when using the oven function – just remember to remove when you switch to microwave function. Simple to operate. Definitely recommend.
I have been using this microwave for over 20 years, this is my second one. It’s large enough for cooking a meal and also great as a second oven.
Easy to use. We mainly use the microwave and oven modes and it works a treat. Especially good are the defrost mode and auto cook mode. It does jacket potatoes superbly. This is our second. We were so happy with it we opted after looking round for the same again.
Is fantastic for both normal style oven and microwave, and both together. Cooks a whole chicken beautifully from frozen. It is bigger than my last one which means I can fit my casserole dishes in easily.
Easy to use and large capacity, very pleased with my purchase.
I replaced our 30+ years old Sharp microwave with this. It’s all we wanted. I was a bit disappointed that the advertised surround is now obsolete, but the microwave has fitted into our kitchen well. Pleased with the purchase.
Sharp combination microwave it’s better than using the bigger oven.
This oven is not made nearly as well as the one it is replacing. I suppose if I hadn’t used one before I would be happier with it. I prefer the old shelves to the new black trays and the plate at the bottom is much poorer quality. I’m lucky I kept the old ones!.
I love this oven. I had one for the last 8 years and bought a new one when the microwave part started to fail. It cooks well, grills great and has a super high E rated microwave. The only thing I miss is a clock.
Great microwave, very easy to use. It is a great size for larger plates, etc
Have had 3 of this type of microwave, all slightly different but a good addirion to the kitchen. Easy to change from microwave to convection cooking. Excellent to use when only cooking for 2.
The main advantage of this over other microwave ovens is its size – 40l!
The ability to use the supplied enameled steel shelves for convection batch cooking is also a big advantage.
The supplied wire, circular, turntable shelves are a little bendy and difficult to clean where the rods meet the circumference.
Overall, there is nothing to beat it for capacity and versatility.
Didn’t realize it was so large when I ordered it never got used to.metric, but I would be able to
get the Xmas turkey in there without any problem.
It can Grill, Roast and also standard microwave, so I can do my complete roast and veg, my previous microwave was the same model that is the reason I purchase this one as I know it well
I’ve found nothing to dislike with this microwave. I use the oven feature every day as I cook chickens for my dog. It is very easy to use and easy to clean. I like the ceramic plate better than the usual glass one as it seems so much easier to clean. I would definitely recommend it.
Replaced the previous version which lasted 13 years, just as easy to use, only diffence is the body isn’t stainless steel, as before, and no clock. Excellent family size
My previous oven had a crappy conventional oven that had to be set way above recommended temps to cook with but this does well to match a fixed oven’s performance, maybe with 10 degrees added, touch controls are easy to clean and the combi modes work well as does the microwave with no noticable hotspots. Conventional oven also seems to have a decent heat spread when using a fixed shelf, it’s also big enough to put a casserole dish on the turntable.
Downsides are an interior light that’s not very powerful, a temperature sensor for the conventional oven that will show the actual temperature while heating but once it reaches the target temp it only shows the target. If you open the door and close it again the temperature will not show any drop off. My mum has an older version of this that shows the real time temp at all times, don’t know why that’s been changed. There’s a power saving feature that shuts down the display when not being used which is good but you have to open the door to activate, would be better if a button push brought it all to life.

Love love love it! Only used my range style oven once since buying this. Huge capacity to microwave, grill, oven or bake. Evenly cooks everything and easy to use. Highly recommended
After our Panasonic Invertor broke down after less than 2 years, we decided to go back to a previous trusted brand. We haven’t been disappointed so far. Fantastic poultry auto cook is the highlight so far- chilled 1.4 Kg chicken cooked with crispy skin in 36 Mins! You do have to turn it over half way, but way,way better result than Panasonic. The turntable also melts butter perfectly evenly-just right for smooth spreading-this was a major irritation in the past- it’d either still be hard or completely liquid! Would highly recommend- though noted that door feels a bit light and cheaply made, it’s not enough to warrant losing a star over.
