Summary: 5 Stars
Some appliances, while highly touted in the ads, don't hold up well under day-to-day usage. Not so for this microwave; the Sharp R-420LK is a great performer! Sharp R-420LK Family Size Countertop Microwave Frankly, I'm not your average once-in-awhile user; I cook full meals in my microwave and put it to the test daily. It's quiet, efficient, thorough, and a great workhorse. My family of boys puts it through its paces almost effortlessly. The sensor feature allows for one-button defrosting, reheating, and cooking. Any of these functions can be done manually as well. And to date, it hasn't burned a single bag of popcorn. Matter of fact, it pops every kernel to perfection!
In addition, the Sharp R-420LK is roomy and attractive, easily matching my kitchen decor. While this model was rated highly by a leading consumer magazine, it was not carried by local retail stores (and I live in a major metropolitan area). So to Amazon I turned and they did not disappoint! Ordering was easy, the microwave arrived promptly and without a scratch, and set-up was a breeze.
So much for the high points. What about the low points? Very few, and easily adjusted for. Simply, the cooking sensor isn't perfect; with the first use it didn't cook a full pan of chicken parts thoroughly. So, I'll simply use the manual controls when I cook full casseroles and meats. However, the appliance does reheat and defrost meats, breads, and leftovers quite well via the sensor. Also, I would like to change the "Minute Plus" button to a "cook by 30 second increments" button as on our previous microwave. Then again, that was one of the few redeeming qualities of our previous microwave (GE), one that would burn popcorn easily, trip our home circuit breaker with power surges, and actually rusted out after a few years of use. I'll take the Sharp R-420LK anytime!
