Meals in Minutes- Sharp Microwave

by bmcnichol Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, May 10 '01
Pros: one touch buttons, express defrost

My microwave is another kitchen appliance I could not live without. I have the Sharp series 230 carousel, model R-410AK/AW. This is the only microwave I have ever owned. I purchased it eight years ago and it still works like it did the day I...

~~TAKES A WHOOPIN AND KEEPS ON COOKIN~~

by lonelyladyk Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Sep 20 '00
Pros: Many useful functions
Cons: none
There was not a category for this exact model of a SHARP MIDSIZE MICROWAVE, so I hope that it is ok to put it here. I am sure that my experience with this particular model goes to tell that all SHARP microwaves are of good quality. My...

Nook my baked potato please

by Ready2bmom Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 27 '00
Pros: Easy to clean, heats evenly
Cons: none
I was unable to find the Sharp Carousel model R3W97, so until they add that one to the list, I am placing it here. I hope you don't mind.

This Sharp Carousel midsize countertop microwave is sharp! I don’t even have to boil water for tea...

A Good Microwave

by roynyr Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 15 '01
Pros: Quick and easy to use, good quality for a low price.
Cons: Small
I am very satisfied with my Sharp R230B microwave. There are a number of reasons why this is a very good kitchen appliance. First off and probably most important, is the price. I purchased my Sharp microwave about a year ago for $110 - a real bargain....

Now we're cookin'!

by meowsrus , Nov 28 '00
Pros: lots of features, lock-out, easy to use
Cons: stains can happen if not cleaned right away.
This section is for the R-230 series of Sharp mid-range microwaves. My microwave is part of the series and even uses the same instruction manual. I wanted to point this out first so that there is no confusion!

There were many...

(Music plays softly) A MICROWAVE STORY (soft music fades, story begins...)

by amymnn , Jun 25 '01
Pros: VERY easy to use. Nice design, powerful cooking without overpowering your kitchen space.
Cons: None
Once upon a time, there was a standard, giant microwave. His name was Mike. Mike was a pretty good microwave, he would heat up hot cocoa, hot dogs, soups and many things from his old school days chum, Chef Boyardee. In addition to these skills, Mike...

Good things do not always come in small packages

My roommate came back to our apartment after Christmas with a number of new household appliances from her family, and this microwave was one of them.

Basic Features
This microwave is fairly basic, with a few added perks. First...

A 'Think-Free' Microwave

by BMurrelle , Oct 26 '01
Pros: Too many to list in 15 words. Without a doubt, it heats thoroughly.
Cons: None, unless you bought it by mistake, while preferring a larger or smaller size.
Naturally when the boss asks us to purchase something for the office the majority of us are going to seek out the very best item at the lowest cost.

It was requested that I go shopping for a microwave. My boss requested, "Don't get one too...

cute little microwave, nice features......except for the door

by pansy4agirl , Jun 12 '01
Pros: 1-800 customer service #, special defrost and safety features, nice looking
Cons: door latch
I have had the Model R230B for about 8 months, having gone from a much larger (older) Amana, without a turntable or timer, so I thought this would be a good model.

If you asked my husband, he would say the reason we got this one was because it...

ZAP!!!! Dinner's done!

by CopeSullivan , Apr 12 '00
Pros: Quick, easy, even a man can use it!!
Cons: Men may stay clear of the kitchen for fear of being asked to cook something.
Can you actually live with out a microwave? These days, I doubt it. A year and a half ago, we decided that it was time to get a new microwave, considering the fact that the one we had was a relic from times gone by. Seriously, it was a...

I finally like having a microwave

by rayleha , Feb 22 '01
Pros: Wonderful, made me actually want to have a microwave again!
Cons: NONE
I couldn't find the exact topic for my new microwave but this one seems to be the closest, so, here it is, my opinion.

The microwave I have is actually the SHARP model, R-305D. It was probably one of the best Christmas presents I...

Many fast meals have come from this Sharp microwave

by dusksunset , Nov 28 '08
Pros: Easily cooks food in a hurry
Cons: Hard to clean; too sensitive to electrical surges
This Sharp Microwave Oven is the second microwave I have owned. I don't remember what brand the first one was, but the Sharp has lasted much longer. Once you're in the habit of using the microwave, you can't live without one, so when the original one ...

Turning the Heat Up

by ensignbetsy , Oct 25 '01
Pros: Easy to understand touch buttons
Cons: none
When my old microwave bit the dust, I began the search for a new one. One thing that I did find out was that when shopping for microwave ovens, it is hard to compare apples to apples. The features on each different model differ extensively.
