big fast cooking requires frequent cleaning

Date of Review:  Jan 3, 2003
The Bottom Line: Buy it, but let Sharp know how you feel about it. Maybe someday they'll change some of the stupid design. Get used to cleaning.
Review: Some of the features we liked about this microwave above others were:
o internal size holds large containers easily
o wattage power allows reduction of cook time
o quick use features like "Minute Plus" and sensor cooking
o great...

Didn't Your Mother Teach You to Avoid Sharp Objects?

Date of Review:  Aug 7, 2004
The Bottom Line: I had high hopes for the Sharp R-530BS but unfortunately it's the worst microwave I've ever used.
Review: In my experience bigger microwave ovens tend to be more powerful and cook faster. The Sharp R-530BS is close to the largest microwave I've ever seen so I was looking forward to incredibly fast cook times. Unfortunately I was bound for...

This was one of my best purchases ever

Date of Review:  Apr 29, 2000
Review: My old microwave just dropped dead one day, and I was a really unhappy camper. I envisioned a lot of shopping around to try to find what I wanted at a good price. Well, I really lucked out. First of all I was sure that I wanted to buy another Sharp...

Don't Buy This

Date of Review:  Oct 29, 2004
Review: I got this microwave one year ago as a wedding present. Already the keypad does not work and I can not push the start button. I am very disappointed with the quality of this microwave. I would expect a microwave of any price to function for more...

No reservations

Date of Review:  Mar 20, 2000
Review: Before buying this microwave, I had no idea it was possible to love an electric cooking appliance. I bought this microwave with no research when I moved across country and needed SOMETHING to cook with -- fast. I have absolutely no regrets.

Great Product for the Price

Date of Review:  Jan 8, 2000
Review: I received this microwave for Christmas this year to replace our old, old one, and I love it. I like it because it takes the guesswork out of deciding how long to cook something. There are various preset sensor levels; for instance, you enter on the...

So far, so good

Date of Review:  May 12, 2000
Review: After selling our old Kenmore microwave at a garage sale, getting another microwave was an immediate necessity. (Forget the logical choice of buying a new one, THEN selling the old one!) Anyway, after looking over all the options, and narrowing it...

Good Value

Date of Review:  May 10, 2000
Review: We purchased our Sharp R-530C a few months ago after our old (10 years) Sharp Carousel died. We decided to buy a Sharp microwave again because of the good reliability of our previous one. This one is bigger (1100 watts) than our previous one because...

I like my Sharp

Date of Review:  Feb 13, 2000
Review: Before Thanksgiving, my old microwave died and I felt I just had to buy another one. To be perfectly honest, the main things I use my microwave for is to heat up my husband's coffee, left overs for me for lunch, and an occasional bag of popcorn. The...
