Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sharp R-930CS 1-1/2-Cubic-Foot 900-Watt Convection Microwave, Stainless
Customer Review: This is a poor microwave
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this as part of a big remodel. I previously had a cheap $100 Sharp microwave. The new one is not good. Convection cooking for stuff lke simple chicken nuggets is horrible. It never cooks frozen meals properly. It does do a good job with the sensor reheat, but I'm very disappointed. I liked my previous microwave better.Customer Review: Too large outside and too heavy for warranty service
Summary: 1 Stars
I have the same unit in black, which is a little more expensive, just for the color. This unit is extremely heavy. It took two of us, and a chair with wheels, to move it 15 feet and get it onto the counter. I've had it one month and it stopped working. If I want in home service I have to pay. It has to be carried to a service center. It weighs more than my 32" TV. Sharp did give me the phone number of the only two service centers in my general area, one was Sears. But when I got it there, after talking to Sharp 4 times about service, Sears asked where my letter fro Sharp was, authorizing them to do the repair... aaahh.. letter? Before it broke, it heated unevenly and isn't as powerful as the 1200 watt unit I gave away to have the combo micro / convection. It does't pop corn very well at all, but it does heat my coffee. What a mistake. The Sharp sales info line was every helpful BEFORE they had my money. Now that they have it, their attitude has completely changed. They have a very "business like" attitude and basically could care less. It's disappointing.
The unit is huge on the outside but not nearly as large on the inside as my old microwave oven which was so much smaller on the outside. I made a huge and costly mistake. If you have to have a convection oven, get one with a reasonable warranty for service for such a large, heavy appliance.
On the other hand, Amazon has been WONDERFUL! At least I did something right when I made this purchase!
Customer Review: Will not ever buy another SHARP micro-convection
Summary: 1 Stars
bought on 12/2/2005
on 10/10/09 inside light stoped and then turntable wouldnt run. machine would no longer run. took it in and was told the door switch was out. that cost 92.00 to fix.
1/20/2011 same problem with door switch. cost another 92.00 to fix. only got 15 months since the last repair.
2/27/2011 same problem with door switch, never have found what is causing the problem. the service center contacted sharp tech but said they were no help and they would try talking with the engineering dept. it is now 4/6/2011 and i havent heard anything back from them
i would not recomend buying this product to anyone. i did talk with sharp myself and they were not friendly at all and acted like it was my problem not theirs.
the first sharp micro conv i bought lasted over 25 years, i guess they had more pride in their products back then. now i guess they want to sell and dont care.
hope this report will be helpful to you, buy another brand.
