Sharp R-305KS 1-Cubic-Foot 1100-Watt Microwave Oven, Stainless

I got this microwave this July. So far it seems fine & does its job. However, the machine starts operating loud 2 month ago. We checked the plate position & tried everything we can, but no improve. It makes me worry as there are also negative reviews about this model which sounds pretty scary when it does go wrong.

I have used both Panasonic and Sharp microwave in the past. Liked both brand. Read and studied reviews from others and then purchase this Sharp more basic ones. Most time I use the features for reheat or defrost. Both feature works very efficiently. The price is right. I do not like the user interface on this unit. I use `minutes plus' feature a lot. The button is not big enough and sometimes I have to press 2nd time in order to make it to work. So I put a little round sticker to make it easier for my finger. For defrost, it is 2-3 steps process and you have to read the instructions on the unit while the door is open to choose the right setting. Maybe that is why it works efficient. The working efficiency is a 5 star, the look is a 5 star, the price is a 5 star and the user interface is a 3 star. Amazon's 2 day delivery services is a 5 star.

This Sharp microwave works like a charm. It is very powerful, easy to control, and attractive.

I wanted a nice-looking basic, easy to operate microwave and this fills the bill. Price was unbeatable. It is powerful, easy to operate, and has some nice features like the "Popcorn" button, and the "Minute Plus". It looks good too, altho it is not really small or compact. The only downside is the rather tinny sound to the door when you shut it, but everything else is great and I am very happy with this product. I've had SHARP microwaves before and they have always performed extremely well. Highly recommend if you want a basic microwave that looks nice.

We have had this for a year, give or take, and have not had a problem yet. With that in mind it is a microwave. My last one lasted 10 years or more. I expect this one to as well. it seems sturdy, it cooks well. It is not too powerful (yes this is possible) so most things that say cook for 1 min actually do take 1 minute.

We do not use this as much as other appliances but when we do we are confident it will work. It is easy to clean too. Easy to use, easy to set the clock, easy to open, etc. It fits all the dishes we use in the microwave. It is bigger inside than the one it replaced, but that was 10+ years old so I would hope this one has more internal room. It has the same external dimensions as the old one, give or take.

It works, enough said about that.
