Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sharp R-230KW 800-Watt 4/5-Cubic-Foot Compact Microwave, WhiteCustomer Review: Wonderful item, quick shipping Summary: 4 Stars
While consumer guides have found the features and controls on the Sharp only ho-hum, we love it. That's because it works well and doesn't break down. In 20 years, we've owned four small Sharp "carousel" microwaves, each of which lasted for five years with no problems. Compared to our other home appliances, this is pretty impressive. My only complaint is that even the little models keep getting bigger. Since we used ours to heat leftovers and defrost things, all we need is something small and dependable.
Customer Review: A great basic microwave Summary: 4 Stars
This a very good basic microwave. It does what it's supposed to do: reheat leftovers, make popcorn, warm a pie. It does it simply - nothing complicated or over-techno. It looks perfectly acceptable on the counter and it isn't overpriced. That's what we were looking for as a replacement for our old microwave when it died and that's what we got. Good value.
Customer Review: VERY quiet if positioned just right Summary: 4 Stars
Quieter than the previous two microwaves we've owned. But we had to position it just right so it wouldn't make a vibrating noise. "Start" and "Clear" buttons should be designated better. But all the buttons on the panel are very responsive and work well. It seems to be well built, and we are very satisfied with it overall.
Customer Review: Replacement microwave Summary: 4 Stars
This Sharp was purchased to replace a 700 watt microwave which had lasted "forever". Only time will tell if the Sharp will give as good a service. The touch-pad controls are not very user friendly and the door has a cheap feel when operated. But the unit works well and the compact size is nice.
Customer Review: Sturdy and Reliable Summary: 4 Stars
This is a great utility microwave. I've only had mine for a couple of months, but it does all the basics that I bought it for: reheating and making popcorn.
It was a good deal for the price and it actually looks nice.
It's surprisingly quiet.
