    Don’t buy sharp microwave

    1/5
    Used it for 3mins before it started vibrating and a smell of burning and got very very hot and cut out

    Do not buy!

    1/5
    The oven takes longer than expected to heat up and does not maintain consistent temperature. The grill does not brown despite food being under it for longer than a conventional grill - pale sausages that look uncooked are really unappetising! The air fryer has no instructions about what to cook the food in. I think maybe you have to buy an air fryer basket as it was not provided? Overall, does not work as expected and very disappointed.

    Disappointing

    3/5
    Was replacement for our previous 31 year old model by same manufacturer. It was also a combination oven with keypad but was 29L. This one is bigger (42L but turntable plate is smaller!) And noisier. It does what it is supposed to do but the child lock is a nuisance. The plastic coating is already wearing off the Start key and is unsightly after less than 4 weeks use!

    I am quite sure that this is a good microwave, but I have absolutely no idea how to use it, which trays etc to use when, nor how long to cook anything for! The instruction manual is minimal, there are no recipes. Consequently, when I tried to cook simple jacket potatoes this evening, they were a disaster! I tried combi...but they were just like microwave potatoes. I was worried about using anything other than the glass tray. I can't find anything online either!!!!

    Decent, but with a few little frustrations

    3/5
    It is big. It does most aspects of its job well. It looks modern and snazzy, too. However, I wish the few included cooking trays/stands were more thought through and fitted together better. It is disappointing that there is no way to slide in trays; everything has to stand on one of the two round supports included, and they don't fit particularly well onto the recess in the base. It is also frustrating that there doesn't appear to be a way to set the timer on the oven to cook for longer than an hour. The controls could be a lot more intuitive, too. So, it is fine, but I wouldn't go better than that.

    Combination cook and grill etc.

    4/5
    It's lovely, but can't see numbers on screen if it's not that light, at night time. I put my little torch near it, so that sorted. I'm just getting used to using it. Shame no cook book with it.

    Good affordable large combination oven

    4/5
    Large capacity with wide range of functions is what we needed from a combination oven and Sharp seems the affordable choice. We have had several before this one. This R956 SLM performs on all functions ok. We have only had problems with the plastic door catches requiring replacement of the whole appliance, but AO and Sharp have been very good about the guarantee.
