I am an RV'er running solar panels. Keeping track of my electric usage is a must.
This operates at 1500 Watts and NOT the advertised 800 Watts.
So if power usage is your thing you might want consider passing this one by.

Best thing in your kitchen

Like the title of this review says it will be if you buy it,the best looking kitchen supply.
Beauty is the second name of this Sharp 800 Microwave. But don't think that this is only good thing about this Microwave,performance is surprisingly good.
On top of the beautiful design and surprisingly good performance this microwave has a ton of features. There is button for everything you need or want. At first It maybe difficult to get used to but when you do it will be a blast to use in every day use.
Durability is 5 star and cleaning is very fast and easy.

Sharp Watt Microwave is great!

To start off: this microwave is so, so good! It's so easy to just pop in something, press an automated (thank goodness for these!) button such as "defrost" or "popcorn" and know that your food won't burn. The price is very reasonable too, so that's a super plus! It is little and easy to use, as well. There's nothing too hard about to figure out at all. The simple control features/buttons are really quite something, as well as the detachable turntable! I absolutely **LOVE** that you can detach the turntable, making it really easy to clean it often, unlike my old microwave.
This is a very effective little guy for a small price. My favorite feature is how easy it is to detach the turntable to clean it up, and how easy it is to use this! Please consider buying this! Definitely recommended.

Great product

I have had this microwave for a few years now and I have not encountered any problems with it whatsoever. The microwave is very sleek and nice looking and come with preset settings for common food items to be microwaved such as meat, pizza, popcorn, or just ordinary leftovers. The microwave also seems to have a large lifespan as I've owned this particular one for many years now without encountering any problems. The price tag on this microwave is very reasonable too, which is nice because microwaves are much more expensive than I ever imagined. As long as you can keep the microwave clean by covering dishes and wiping it out after making messes, the microwave should last a very long time for you too!

When we bought this microwave we needed it so bad after our old one went out. This microwave was a great find for us. It is not to big for our space and not to small to cook anything you want. the first time we put it on and used it we were very surprised on the quietness of it. It didnt make all of those weird noises a lot of microwaves do. We noticed a great GREAT improvement with the heating of food. It produces great and even heating to the food. The shape of the microwave was easy to clean and the glass tray dish in it come in and out very easy for cleaning. The color of the micro is good for our decor and probably anyones. I am not one for buying new things in my home once I have had something for so long, but this microwave is by far the best micro at a great price that I have heard about or used. I am very pleased!

Sharp R-230KK 800-Watt 4/5-Cubic-Foot Compact Microwave, Black
Sharp 800Watt ,4/5-Cubic-Foot Microwave-countertop, great buy.
This Sharp countertop microwave is a great buy. It is 800 watt, 0.8 cubic foot capacity. Black finish looks sophisticated, design lines are sleek & the size is just right for a single person or a couple. If you are more than 3 or more people -look for a larger size. It Sits on my countertop or sometimes on my breakfast bar. It is quite portable.It has a rotating turn table- size larger than a big dinner plate. But interior actually holds much more because of spare room around the turn table. Some of my friends have had it for > 5 years & recommended it to us. It works very well & We like it very much.
It has a lamp inside which turns on after the door is closed, & you can use the see through panel. It has a display panel, touch butons for settings, power levels can be adjusted -anything till 100%. It does the usual - reheating pizza, leftover food, heating the refrigerated food.& defrosting frozen food, meats & poultry. It also makes good popcorn, bakes potatoes, cooks oatmeal, even dry roasts nuts like peanuts, cashew, almonds, makes hot chocolate,coffee, tea, lightly steaming vegetables- carrots, green beans, spinach, then stir fry on stove top. Very quick, cuts cooking time significantly.
It comes with instruction manual which gives settings for actually cooking food in your microwave. You have to stir the contents now & then to allow uniform cooking. Sharp microwave has reduced cooking time because we use it to prep food first & then cook it on our electric stove top. So We have cooked rice, made eggs-even omelettes( also eggs with& without shell-of course in appropriate microwave containers). We like it very much & it is an essential tool in our kitchen. It comes with a 1year limited warranty. I have had other sharp products for years & they work well. I am sure we'll enjoy this sharp microwave & our healthy home made food made possible because of it, for many more years to come.

This Sharp microwave has most of the benefits and features on their larger models and is perfect for people wanted a sized down version - perhaps for an apartment, an RV or college dorm. This size is perfect. One of the value features of this microwave is the turntable it comes with. The turntable allows your food to spin around slowly during the cooking process and helps eliminate burnt sections of food. Microwaves have gone a long way from their original use are merely heating up cold food. There are a lot of micowaveable recipes on the internet that can make this appliance in competition with you current stove. It stil provides features such a the clock. Other familiar features include the popcorn option, reheat option, defrost and timed options. Play around with it for a short time and you'll have mastered the many options available on this microwave.
This poduct comes fully assembled and can be cooking for you as early as this afternoon or evening, It cleans up fairly easy and can be wiped down at a moment's notice with any problems,The turntable come out, and is dishwasher safe - or if you prefer, it can be washed by hand.

Been using the Sharp MIcrowave for Five wonderful years!

I love this microwave for a lot of reasons: my dad gave it to me as a gift when i went away to college, it fed me through countless over-nighters, i don't have to open it to rotate half-way through cooking frozen dinners because it's on a carousel, and it's black, which is my fave color! In all seriousness, this microwave has been with me though thick and thin and after five years, it's still just as efficient and reliable. My sister has gone though at least three different microwaves in the past five years and every time i suggest her to get this one, but she's convinced that Sharp is a bad brand due to previous experiences she's had with tvs and radios. I can't say anything for Sharps other electronics, but their microwaves work well! I can't imagine owning any other microwave, it's the perfect size: large enough for popcorn bags, and not so large that the rotating plate can't come out and be washed by hand easily. It's the perfect microwave!

Sharp Microwave Oven works well
4
We bought this online one year ago, and it still works well now, without any problem. The price is fair, and it already has all the functions we need, so we don't need to buy expensive one. The panel is easy to read, and the instructions are easy to undersatnd. You just need to set the time, and then push the start button. I usually use it to microwave milk every morning. It's also very convenient for popcorn and defrost. You just have to push the popcorn or defrost button several times, depending on the weight of the food, and it starts. There are still many functions that I've never tried it.
The profile is nice, I like it, and it is easy to clean, just use a wet cloth to wipe it after you use. The space and power of the microwave oven is not very big, but it's much enough for the small family like us. I've never used other brands of microwave oven, but I think this one is worth, because of its brand and its cost.
