(More customer reviews)Update: May 16,2011: Alas, the Sharp died in April, 2011. Believe it or not we bought another of same model. I looked at several others... all of which had poor reviews. The Sharp is relatively cheap so thought I would stick with it until someone comes up with a good one over long term. Microwaves used to last for 10 years or so. No idea what has happened to current technology.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------A couple months back we needed to replace our GE microwave which died suddenly. We use the microwave daily so needed a replacement sooner rather than later. I planned on another GE since we have used all GE kitchen products for 30 years. Looked in Consumer Reports and Amazon.
Surprise! GE microwaves were a disaster according to customer reviews at both CR & Amazon. The CR top rated oven, a GE, had 26 of 38 reviews at or below 2 stars. Sears & Panosonic did not fair any better.
This Sharp was down the list on CR ratings but had great reviews. Sharp microwaves on Amazon had solid reviews. The appearance of this one was perfect for our kitchen and had large capacity. Found it at local Fry's; Ta-Da. (I don't know if this family could function w/o a microwave!).
We've had it for two + months now and it does everything it is supposed to do. Very pleased. Large turntable & capacity are major pluses.
I have no idea what is going on in the microwave indusdry; it seems like the ovens are failing at a far more rapid rate than before. I'm hoping Sharps buck the trend.
