Comments about Sharp 1.4 CF Over the Range Microwave, 950 Watts - R1405 / R1406:

The is a good all-around home microwave. The door, turntable, buttons and other mechanical compenents seem to be well designed and reliable. (That was a concern I had with GE microwaves.) The design has few nooks and crannies for trapping dirt and grease, so it is very easy to clean. The oven performs well, heats evenly, and isn't particularly noisy. Installation went without a hitch by following the enclosed directions carefully. I use it mostly for reheating food and beverages, and cooking the occassional frozen food, popcorn, or potato. It has worked flawlessly in all these applications. I find the buttons for using the pre-set cooking options to be quite confusing. But since I mostly set a specific time at max power, which is simple to do, the oven works just fine for me.

Good value!
