Overview

Sharp built this compact countertop microwave for snacks, drinks, frozen meals and reheating. A removable carousel turntable rotates food as it heats, and a brushed stainless finish surrounds a scratch resistant glass door. Touch controls set power, time and the auto cook programs.

Small footprint is the reason to buy, since it fits narrow counters while still taking a full dinner plate. Power is modest, so dense frozen food needs longer runs and a stir partway through.

Who it's for

Singles and couples who mostly warm leftovers and drinks get a compact unit that takes a full plate. Larger families cooking big batches should look at a roomier oven.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Removable turntable for sink cleaning
  • Takes a full-size dinner plate
  • Ten power levels for gentle reheating
  • Weight and time defrost options
Cons
  • Plastic interior rather than stainless
  • Modest power for dense frozen food
  • Weight not listed
  • One year limited warranty

Performance notes

Heating speed follows wattage and load size, so a single plate warms quickly while dense frozen blocks need longer runs. The rotating turntable moves food through uneven spots in the field, which evens out reheating. Lower power levels suit defrosting and softening, where full power would cook the edges first.
