Sharp R-1406 950-Watt 1-2/5-Cubic-Foot Over-the-Range Microwave, White
With its spacious 1-2/5-cubic-foot capacity and 950 watts of power, this space-saving over-the-range microwave oven comes equipped with a large 14-1/8-inch Sharp Carousel turntable, which nicely accommodates large casserole dishes. For added convenience and versatility, the unit features ten variable power levels; 13 automatic settings for reheating, cooking, and defrosting; and three venting options: horizontal, vertical, or recirculating. The oven’s cook center and reheat center prepares or heats up to six servings of frequently microwaved foods automatically, while its defrost center automatically sets defrosting times and power levels for meats and poultry by weight.
In addition, Minute Plus sets the oven at “high” with a single touch, and a popcorn sensor pops microwave popcorn automatically, regardless of package size or brand. Other useful features include auto-touch controls that provide precise, reliable programming with a five-digit, two-color lighted display; a work light and exhaust fan for convenient range-top cooking; and easy installation. The microwave measures 29-15/16 by 16-1/4 by 15-9/16 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty
Sharp R-1406 950-Watt 1-2/5-Cubic-Foot Over-the-Range Microwave, Reviews
I bought this on Amazon to replace a Sharp microwave, which has served me well for several years. Based on the price, compared to other with similar features, this unit is the least expensive. I was also impressed with the comprehensive directions for installation. I am closer to being Tim (the toolman) Taylor than a professional at home improvements, so I followed the instructions with precision. The results were outstanding. Not only does it look GREAT where my old stove hood used to be, it passed my “popcorn” test, of which, I am particular. No scotching, full bag, satisfying and an extra plus, while I am beaming over my accomplishment, the beep sounds indicating the popcorn was finished, the display read “Enjoy”. Am I ever! I have in my “digital locker”,courtesy of Amazon, my own .pdf manual. What a great investment in money for the microwave and the time for installation of the unit.
Solidly built, looks great, came with lightbulbs for range light INSTALLED! No cons, but could have used some help with installing, as the manual recommends 2 people install, but I did manage nicely by myself. I would suggest an additional set of hands for final insertion, once preparations are complete. I have only owned this for a day, but, I wanted to tell my tale to give others an incentive, if they are on the edge, to jump at this opprotunity to snazz up the kitchen in a big way and for little out of pocket.
Panasonic wants like $300 for a comparable unit. I am pleased to pay 1/2 as much and get a quality unit such as this. You can even get this for $25 off before January 31st, free shipping (this dude is HEAVY!) and no tax, do the math, it is a steal!
