Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

With its spacious 1-2/5-cubic-foot capacity, this family-size microwave oven offers an exceptionally convenient way to keep up with a busy household. The unit's large 14-1/8-inch Carousel turntable can accommodate a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish, while its user-friendly control panel and seven-digit, two-color, lighted display with word prompts ensure easy programming. Nine Sensor Cook settings make it possible to cook popular microwave foods with the simple press of a button--it adjusts the time and power level automatically. Choose from baked potatoes, popcorn, fresh vegetables, ground meat, rice, fish/seafood, frozen entrees, chicken breast, and frozen vegetables. It also offers three one-touch sensor reheat options: fresh rolls/muffins, frozen rolls/muffins, and beverage, as well as four defrost options: ground meat, steaks/chops, boneless poultry, and bone-in poultry. The countertop appliance also provides a hot-water button--great for making a cup of tea, and Keep Warm Plus, which keeps hot foods hot up to 30 minutes at the end of the cooking cycle--without over-cooking. Other highlights include 11 power levels, four programmable stages, a clock and timer, demonstration mode, and a safety lock. The 1100-watt microwave oven measures 17-1/2 by 21-5/8 by 12-3/8 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Initially I was dubious as to the quality and performance of this unit given it was relatively inexpensive but I was completely wrong! I am extremely pleased with every feature and its performance exceeds my expectations. I am so pleased that I choose this model.

We've used this microwave for about 6 months now. It works great from popcorn, reheating dishes, and thawing meat. I have a large family and it works wonderfully. I would highly recommend it to any family.

This review is from: Sharp R-420LW Family-Size 1-2/5-Cubic-Foot Countertop Microwave Oven, White (Kitchen)

Bought this a few hours ago at a local store as a replacement for a Cuisinart microwave that died in less than a year. My parents have always had good luck with Sharp microwaves (had one for about 20 years), and this one got good reviews here and on other sites. I love the controls and it's a very "smart" microwave.
My initial test was popcorn. Perfectly popped! Then I reheated leftovers along with frozen chicken nuggets and both came out perfectly. The sensor cook is too awesome. Looking forward to many years of use!
