Biggest flaw/inconvenience is lack of interior light when you open door. Light only on when cooking. I consider this a major flaw. Since the keypad is not lit you have no choice but to turn on overhead. I used to open door to see number pad on my old microwave. I just bought it, seems to cook well. It is 1000 watts which is nice and 1.1 cu feet doest use a huge amount of counter space.

Nothing negative to say

I bought this a couple of weeks ago. It was previously used but sold new. I noticed food was still in it from the previous user when I got home and unboxed it. I attempted to clean it up and use it to avoid having to return it. But the microwave didn't work at all! I now have to make a return trip just to replace it.

The first one managed to warm a can of corn and then never worked again. We exchanged it without difficultly for the same model because it fits where we need it to go. This microwave will only work for 8 or 9 minutes at a time before it goes off. It has to be left alone to reset and then it will beep and come back on. You cannot cook a casserole from your freezer in this microwave. It is probably a safety feature but spoils the reason I have a microwave.

Right size for my space

I do not write reviews, but I do not want anyone to make the same mistake that I made. I originally brought this microwave and did like it for the cost, but within the first year, the microwave began sparking. I did not want a fire so I bought another one. Hesitant about the quality, I did hold the packaging for approx.four weeks. Nevertheless, I have not had this one for more than probably six months and same problem, the microwave is throwing off sparks.

Just received this microwave. So far so good but the four star rating is due to the length of the cord. Our microwave does not sit on a countertop so this microwaves short cord misses our outlet by about an inch and a half. I had to get an extension cord to make it work.

I was excited to get this because I am always satisfied with the quality Sam’s provides, but I was very much disappointed with this microwave. It works about 70% of the time; the other 30% it isn’t working because it has overheated or there is too much steam being made. It just turns off and stays off for 5-7 minutes; that’s pretty aggravating to a hungry lady.

We purchased this microwave and discovered pretty quickly that it shuts off after cooking for 5 or 6 minutes. It appears it overheats and shuts off as a precaution. Sparks and pops occasionally also. We are looking to replace it now. E-mailed the manufacturer about the problem and they didn't even bother to reply. Unless you are looking for a disposable microwave, I would recommend that you continue your search.

I've have always bought and liked Sharp microwaves. Not now. Purchased in August of this year it is now making all kinds of noises as the turntable goes around. I've checked several times to make sure the plate is properly installed. I also think it is not heating up as well as it did at first.
