Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sharp R-230KW 800-Watt 4/5-Cubic-Foot Compact Microwave, White

Customer Review: Perfect for my needs.
Summary: 5 Stars

I decided to purchase this microwave after reading most of the customer reviews and the product description. Here is what I found.

Packaging:
This microwave oven arrived undamaged on the expected day. The unit was shipped in the original packaging and included styrofoam inserts to protect the oven with extra styrofoam to protect the glass carousel and rotating support.

Product:
The unit has a three-pronged electrical plug and will need an adapter for use with older two-pronged electrical outlets. The white exterior is easy to clean and hides fingerprints.

Measurements:
* Exterior: 18 inches wide (front) x 13 inches deep (exterior) x 11 inches tall (from counter)
* Interior: 11 13/16 wide x 12 3/4 inches deep (center of interior) x 8 inches tall (center of carousel)

Items included:
The unit shipped with an instruction booklet and registration card. The instruction booklet was very informational and easy to follow.

Pros:
* The buttons and timer display are easy to read.
* I was able to set the clock and cook food without ever opening the instruction booklet, though I read the booklet later.
* The interior light is only illuminated when the oven is in the process of cooking. The light doesn't stay on when the door is opened after cooking is completed - I like this as it doesn't waste any electricity.

Cons:
None at this time.

Thoughts:
I mainly use a microwave for popcorn, heating water for tea, cooking food less than 10 minutes and reheating leftovers. This microwave oven fits perfectly on my kitchen counter and works great for my needs.
