This Sharp one does it all

When my 10+ year old microwave oven decided to quit one evening right in the middle of making dinner I was devastated. How would I do all those great things that I use my microwave everyday for, especially heating my mugs of water for my morning instant coffee. I use my microwave for so many things, defrosting, reheating, cooking, baking, and for heating my microwave heating pad that I need for my migraine headaches.

The very next morning I was out in search of a new and more equipped microwave, why not upgrade from what I just had, I wanted all the new "bells and whistles" that I might sometime need to use. I looked around in several "discount" department stores and took notes on brand names, sizes, colors, prices, and of course the options. I ended up at an appliance store and was shown the Sharp Carousel Microwave oven, in black, which is really what I preferred. Everything on it was just what I would want and best of all the price was right, it was on sale!

Within a couple of hours I had it home, plugged in, and had read the basic instructions on how to operate it. I was ready to try the new auto-touch buttons so I grabbed a bag of microwave popcorn and put it in the oven. I pressed the popcorn button. It came out perfectly. Next I decided to defrost a package of ground beef to use for dinner and after carefully following the simple directions I successfully thawed the meat. Other buttons on the touch pad are frozen dinners (8 minutes) baked potato (9 minutes),rice, soup, hot dog, fresh vegetables, frozen vegetables, reheat plate, and seafood. There are the timer buttons with a special minute plus feature to add time by the minute if necessary, 3 power levels along with the defrost cycles, and also a built in kitchen timer and clock.

This oven is so easy to keep clean, the turntable comes out and I clean it right in my dishwasher. Then I just wipe out the interior with a damp sponge. I am so pleased with this great microwave and hope to have it for many years to come.
