Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sharp R-820Bw 900-Watt 0.9-Cubic-Foot Convection Microwave, WhiteCustomer Review: After 3 years I finally read the manual and quadrupled it's use! Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this oven over 3 years ago (R-820B) model. Yes, its bigger than a microwave, and yes it has a bulk of metal in the back but it's an oven to cook in, not just a microwave to reheat in. I have it on the counter in a corner so it fits adequately. I'm energy conscious and try to keep my electric bill to a minimum so I don't like to use my conventional oven very much. For 3 years I've enjoyed roasting a chicken almost weekly in this, and also the usual microwave foods like baked potatoes, etc. (The microwave above the stove that came with the house when I bought it last year is now used for paperwork. Very handy!) The chicken is always moist and beautifully browned. During this past winter I felt like trying a burger in it because it was too cold to grill outside. I didn't have to read the manual because there are auto grill settings that require nothing more than hitting the buttons it tells you to. I was shocked at how beautifully grilled and sizzling it turned out. So I got the manual out and read the directions for all the other auto settings. Then I tried a steak.... then I tried some lamb chops (yum) that I bought on sale. WOW! Delicious! nice and pink in the middle, perfectly browned on the outside, and tender! Defrosting was a surprise when I stopped using the old microwave solution - a lowered power level (which almost always partially cooked the outside of the food). Well the "compu-defrost" setting was amazing - defrosted the meat without cooking it one bit, no matter how thin or thick the steaks were! I did check them periodically and took them out a little before the time was up. I like to bake bread so that's my next project. I'm so in love with this oven that if I were building a new house I would design a kitchen around it! Today I ordered a cookbook especially for this oven so I'm hoping that very soon my conventional oven will become a new filing cabinet! I live alone but often have guests for dinner so a regular oven is a waste of energy for me. I've never had a bit of trouble with it and have moved it through 2 states. I think the person who had the smoke problem probably hit the timer too many times so instead of 3 minutes it was going on 30 minutes. (I've done this myself). I absolutely recommend this oven - just be sure you know the measurements and have space for it's depth.
