easy to use and lots of extra features if you choose to use them.
it is very easy to use.
minor annoyances include that the door open button requires a pretty firm push to open the door and the control knob can't be used to select a power level.
pros: unique idea that uses a dial for setting cooking time and weights.
pros: superb, fast/accurate cooking, high end looks, super easy to use, top notch panasonic quality.
this microwave has way more options than we will probably ever use but best buy only had two black microwaves in stock.
it was just installed so we haven't used it a lot yet.....completely happy...excellent amazon service as usual.
it's a heavy beast and you will want to use the template that comes with it to lay out the installation bracket positions and holes for the support bolts.
- custom cook can be programmed to cook any single time you use the most often (my only complaint about this is you still need to press the start/enter button)
the quick heat buttons are convenient and easy to use.
it will be used primarily for popcorn or hot beverages.
we just use to reheat and for popcorn so i could've done with something less expensive.
easy to use.
the bottom line: sharp appearance, decent performance, compact size, easy to use, easy to clean interior.
although i have not used it much, the microwave like all other cusinart products is beautifully designed with high quality materials.

it has great features and is quieter than most microwaves i've used.
i am sure they will put the microwave to good use for years to come.
it is a little small, but adequate for my use.
it met my expectation as for daily use.
it's quick and easy to use.
i used a diaper to clean it and was told by someone at ge that it was the wrong thing to use.
for example, it has a reminder feature, a timer, and the usual cooking - and you can use all 3 at once!
pros: attractive design, easy to clean, heats evenly, powerful, quiet, simple display, stable tray best uses: frozen food, leftovers, popcorn, quick meals describe yourself: can't cook
otherwise the microwave is easy to use and the sensor function works well.
i use the convection and microwave every day.
have used it to defrost steaks etc for a barbeque and came out with no cooked edges and perfectly defrosted meat.
the black display on the sharp was hard to read and the microwave didn't work as well as the $79 one i use at work.
it is simple to use and does a great job.
it's easy to use and the look is great.
this mp3 player is easy to use.
quiet, easy to install, over the stove lightsare great, the level of the cook compartment ismuch lower in height than our previous microwave-hood allowing a shorter person to easily put things in and

the menus are easy-to-use and intuitive.
the touch screen is interactive and easy to use.
i also use the reheat program quite a bit.

it is nice to have the added counterspace that used to be taken up by my countertop microwave.

works fine and delivered as promised describe yourself: gourmet cook primary use of this product: personal bottom line: yes, i would recommend this to a friend
i use it mainly to warm up stuff for my small children.
the bottom line: i would recommend this product based on past experience with the company's products, and the ease of setup and use for this one as compared with the old one.
this is the best microwave i have ever used.
we use our microwave primarily for timed cooking and for reheating, and this oven is doing a fine job for those purposes.
this is a great product i use it almost everyday for something.
this is probably the 5th microwave i have owned in 20 years, and i have to say it cooks more evenly and to the second than any other machine i have ever used.
microwave is for apartment, so we didn't use it ourselves.
i don't use a microwave for much: melting butter, warming coffee, popcorn, occasionally a thaw.
i would recommend this little guy to everyone, if what you need is an appliance that looks good, is small, and you only use it to heat up things.
to clean the outside, use a microfiber towel instead....works great with no scratching.
i used the convection and grill combo feature once and it seems to work fine.
best of all, the controls are much improved over a typical microwave that has a digital numeric touch pad; instead, this one has a round scroll wheel on the inside that is a breeze to use.
although i've only used convection once (consensus still out - doesn't seem to get things crispy...
for $160 delivered i think if you are a causual user of the other features its the best choice as your paying less then half the price of one of the top class machines and its simply stunning in
this product worked well for about 5 months, then it simply died during normal use with a slight pop sound somewhere inside and a faint burning smell.
the 1100 watts power rating and the preset choices with sensor control, coupled with the turntable make it a great value, and the controls on the bottom makes it easier for shorter users to access.
some reheating features are slightly complicated to use, so i don't bother.
i've owned several other sharps for office and cabin use and have had no problems with any of them.
pros: attractive design, easy to clean, heats evenly, powerful, quiet, simple display, stable tray, versatile best uses: baked potatoes, frozen food, leftovers, popcorn, quick meals, snacks describe
because i had memorized the functionality, i continued to use it- until the start button broke!
i just needed to drill a hole in the cupboard above and used a surface mount box + standard outlet from home depot to create an electrical outlet.
we are a family of two and do not use the microwave often except for re-heating or melting some items.
cons: exhaust fan could use a litte more cfm but does the job well enough
pros: energy efficient, heats evenly, powerful, quiet, simple display, stable tray, versatile best uses: frozen food, leftovers, vegetables describe yourself: avid cook
the only negative is that the led display has a limited viewing range, at least when the microwave sits on the counter and the user's eyes are five and a half feet above the floor.
[...] i only really use it for reheating foods, and so far i have been happy with the result.
i've never used any microwave oven other than the standard, basic "time" and "power" type.
really easy to use and the most powerful microwave i've ever had.
this microwave while not convection (i never used the convection part in the orginal one anyway) has a large turntable which the other one didn't and was much larger inside capacity 1250 power.
very user friendly.
the front panel looks great and has a few quite useful features, having the controls at eye level is what sold the oven to my mom who is losing her eye sight, i like the symmetrical look.
its only gonna do so much.controls are easy to use pretty much standard operation.we do not care for the presets, do not like seeing chicken nuggets or mac and cheese on there, should be directions
i am glad i went with an over the cooktop model as it is very convenient to use even while operating the cooktop at the same time.
