Powerful!
This microwave is bigger than conventional Microwaves ovens, and it is noticeably more powerful than all other microwave ovens I've had (including old big ones).
Popcorn is made in 1:45, depending on the brand it may even need less time to cook. All food and drinks heated in the oven are heated well and fast.
Gave it 4 stars because the number keypad is covered by the door. There are only 4 buttons outside: popcorn, 1 Minute Plus, Stop/Clear and Start. So to set any timing or food cooking you have to: 1- put the food in the microwave. 2- with the door open set your cooking time and preferences. 3- close the door, 4- press start.
This is uncommon way for setting a microwave and it disrupts the typical way of 1- put food in, 2-close door, 3- set cook time, 4- press start. Which tends to be a little bit faster.

LED Started to go after 5 months
I had no complaints about this machine for the first four months (would have been 4 or 5 stars) but I will now have to return it - which is a massive hassle given its size. The LED readout has burned out on two of the vertical bars. It's actual two sequential bars in two columns for a total of 4 sections of the LED that are unreadable. You'd think that might be minor until you realize how often you look at the microwave to tell the time or see how much time remains with your cooking. It becomes untenable quickly.

Great product
Purchased this for summer home - needed powerful but compact unit and this is it. Looks great, heats as promised and easy to use. Only 'complaint'- the numbers are too faint for someone with macular - but this isn't unique to this unit. I read all the reviews for the variety of units I could have purchased and this one rated the highest - which proved correct. Next time I need a new microwave, will definitely put Sharp at the top of the list.
