The microwave is Sharp ! It looks good and it does all the things I want a microwave to do.

Small & compact perfect for going under a cupboard . Working fine

Terrible defrost doesn’t work literally had it going for 20 mins. Wish I’d sent it back.

i choose a smaller microwave so choose sharp as i heard they are good but it was a wrong choicei l can put it on for 2or3mins the outside of the plate hot and the food at the top also hot but in the middle its warm and most time you use it you have to wipe it dry as its soaking wet through steam i understand this can happen wth small microwave as i always had combi ones so its new to me but i have to keep it till it stops working but sorry i wont buy a sharp next time but excellent ao sevice

After only 3 years, the paint on the interior of this microwave is starting to peel. Of course, it is already out of warranty so not much I can do apart from warning others not to buy this. In addition, as other reviewers point out, the microwave is not properly vented and a lot of steam comes out from the door while in use, probably this is the cause for the premature paint peeling.

If you have bought this recently and it has moisture like mine does, please complain to Sharp

It gets full of moisture, no other microwave i have ever had has been like this, its dripping.

Disadvantages: Cheaply made, and if you use a microwave frequently, buy something better. The clear cover over the soft touch started bubbling up over the Start and Stop button after a couple of weeks. You either need perfect eyesight, or need to memorize the position of the control buttons you use, as even in our bright kitchen it is not easy to make out the pale grey writing on the dark grey background. Whose daft idea was that pseudo 'trendy' colour combination and thin font? For various reasons we only started using this microwave when it only had a couple of months left on the guarantee and now after only about 5 month's use, the turntable machine seems to be no longer fitting perfectly into the spindle, so it grinds and jolts its way around. It is also noticeably bad at venting moisture. After heating exactly the same foods in the same containers for the same length of time as in our previous (DeLonghi) microwave, the Sharp interior is dripping with moisture - literally! And no, we haven't got the vents blocked up in any way. Advantages: Small and compact and cheap. It has a grey interior rather than white which makes it look dull. You get what you pay for I guess.
