A well-reviewed over-the-range microwave for its size and finish, though the installation hardware and interior lighting come up as real weak points in owner feedback.

Overview
The Sharp SMO1754JS is a 30 inch over-the-range microwave with 1.7 cu ft of interior space, a 1000W output and a 300 CFM venting fan. It pairs a 13.6 inch turntable with sensor cooking and an edge-to-edge black glass front over stainless steel trim.
Sharp positions this as a design-forward over-the-range unit, with a gray interior and LED lighting meant to complement stainless steel kitchens rather than match a plain white or black cavity. Express Cook allows starting a cook cycle up to 9 minutes without programming a full sensor cook menu, and a Melt/Soften setting targets small tasks like softening cream cheese.

Who it's for
Fits a kitchen replacing an existing over-the-range microwave that wants both venting and cooking in one unit with a coordinated stainless and black glass look. Owners planning a DIY install should budget extra time, since more than one reviewer needed to modify the internal mounting hangers.
Pros and cons
- Interior light is dim and the bulb is hard to access, requiring removal of about 7 screws
- Some owners needed to modify the mounting hangers during install
- Control panel does not illuminate for visibility in low light
