Great Large Microwave

Review Date: June 19, 2007

Reviewer: T. Osterman, Plantation, FL

I owned this microwave for one and a half years. In that time I was most impressed with the sleek finish and large size. It does everything you would expect of a microwave (boil water, popcorn, reheat food, etc). The preset, by weight, settings are a little hit or miss, but all in all pretty good. Generally, I like to manually adjust the power level and this microwave does a great job with that. For instance, melting butter on power level one or two melts the butter without boiling or liquefying it.

My roommate took my first Sharp and I'm about to buy my second. I hope this helps.

I recently finished my kitchen remodel which included all stainless steel appliances. I bought this model of microwave because of its design. Now that I am using it, I love it. It is easy to use. It took no time for me to adjust to the buttons being on the inside.The size is great and the sensor mode works wonderfully. I would highly reccomend this product.

Safety with efficiency and great appearance too!

Reviewer: M. Hein,

Recently we purchased the SHARP R-426LS Family Size Countertop Microwave.
Although we have no small children in our household, the safety feature with the controls and settings not available to be touched on the outside of the microwave is definitely a great feature. It does take a bit of time to get used to opening the door to choose your settings, however. This particular model has many features to choose from to make your cooking more efficient. You need to read the booklet and learn which of the many settings that are available are best for your uses. Again this is more sophisticated that some of the other microwaves we have owned. Some may find it cumbersome to use some of the settings, but if you perservere, it will be worth your time. Last, but not least we find the style of this microwave to be a great improvement. Although we use it on our countertop, at present, should we decide to use it above our stove as many do, it can be installed that way as well because of the special feature of this model. That is not the case with other countertop microwaves. We also find this size works well with larger dishes/bowls/plates, etc. which one uses for all type of microwaving and defrosting. After researching many other makes and models of microwaves, we find this Sharp to be the best, and it was also reasonably priced.

Buying another one!

I purchased this microwave for my Mother last Christmas. Once you get used to setting the cook time, or choosing your setting before you close the door, instead of after, it's a dream. It looks beautiful with hidden controls. It works beautifully, and this year, she is buying one for me.

Powerful microwave

Review Date: September 27, 2008

Reviewer: littleone58, Vancouver, WA

The Sharp R-426LS microwave is powerful and easy to use. With 1300 watts, it cooks faster than other microwaves I have had. The sensor buttons are a great feature and guarantees popcorn won't burn and frozen dinners are cooked thoroughly. There's no monitoring, it just senses when it's done and stops. I like the easy button on the front panel when selecting the time as it adds a minute each time you push it. The microwave is not as large as I thought and it fits on the same cart as my previous microwave. It has a lot of cooking space and the stainless steel is very atractive in my kitchen.
