Pros Attractive styling.
Cons Numbers disappearing only 15 months after purchase. Do not buy.
Recommended it? No

Styling is what attracted me to this model. Looks great but the display buttons are slowly fading. When I called Sharp on this issue, they told me I could have it repaired and they would give a list of Repairmen in my area! It is a defective portion of their product and they are not willing to...

Pros Worked for 6 months - Has not caused a house fire
Cons Display does not work - "Start" button broke off - Unreliable
Recommended it? No

When I remodeled my kitchen two years ago, I bought this microwave. It looked nice and had just four simple buttons on the front.

Without a doubt, this has been the worst electronic product that I've purchased in years.

I've bought several cheap sub-$100 no-name microwaves in... Read full review »

Poor LCD/buttons, extremely poor support from Sharp

byfredjohnson Jun 29, 2005
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros The cooking functionality works well despite the control/display problems.
Cons Extremely poor LCD and button life.
Recommended it? No

Like every other review here, our LCD panel failed after about a year. Sharp didn't fix it under warranty (they only gave us an 800 number for a 3rd-party parts warehouse who told us the replacement panel would cost us about $90.) Given that the microwave worked fine even without the LCD, we kept... Read full review »

Pros Looks cool. Heats fast(when the start button is there)
Cons Not durable. Parts break extremely fast.
Recommended it? No

I have had the same exact problems with our microwave. When the display went out I thought it was strange. Just our luck but it still looks good. Then the start button broke off behind the panel. It was barely hanging on to some thin plastic junk from the factory. What a joke! Why design such a... Read full review »

Pros It did a good job of cooking and heating food.
Cons The display is garbage.
Recommended it? No

I bought this microwave when I remodeled my kitchen. It has a lot of nice features, cooked and reheated food quite well, but....there is one huge problem. The digital display went bad after 3 months of use. It still works, you just can't see what you're programming. Here's the worst part, the... Read full review »

Pros It's a great microwave. I love the design and it's easy to keep clean.
Cons Obviously a major problem with the LCD.
Recommended it? No

I went online tonight to try to find a replacement part for my LCD display for my Sharp R-1501 and stumbled across this page. My LCD display started flickering on and off for a few months. Next it started displaying only certain areas on the panel before finally going out completely. I sent my... Read full review »
