1 It's not just me!
My 1501 lasted about 2 years-but within months of installation the display started losing segments so time/cook function etc were complete guesswork. Finally it just stopped heating-everything else works but it doesn't do what I bought it for anymore. If it was a $39 countertop model I wouldn't mind-but these things are not cheap and have to be installed and uninstalled-a pain in the neck.
My last 'wave was also a Sharp (countertop) model and that lasted maybe 1.5 years. I should have learned my lesson but thought that one was just a lemon. I mean, how could the supplier with the #1 market share make bad products? Now I wonder- HOW DID SHARP GET #1 MARKET SHARE IN MICROWAVES WITH JUNK LIKE THIS OUT THERE???
Buy anything else-steer clear of Sharp.


2 Beware the Sharp!
If I could give less stars, I would. WATCH OUT FOR SHARP MICROWAVES! A year and one month after purchase (how convenient), my over-the-range Sharp blew up. Smoke poured out of it, stinking up my kitchen and throwing me into a panic. Turns out the circuit board suddenly malfunctioned (the repair shop could find no cause for the malfunction), and it will cost $195 to fix - I paid $199 for the new unit! The LED lights began to malfunction after only three months (the repair shop had told us this happens extremely often with Sharp microwaves).

Do a search for "Sharp complaints" on the web and Usenet, and you'll see plenty of similar complaints. Avoid the Sharp microwaves at all costs, or be prepared to flush $200 down the toilet.

Quote of the Day:


It's later than you think, the joint Russian-American space mission has

already begun.

Modern psychology takes completely for granted that behavior and neural
function are perfectly correlated, that one is completely caused by the
other. There is no separate soul or lifeforce to stick a finger into the
brain now and then and make neural cells do what they would not otherwise.
Actually, of course, this is a working assumption only. ... It is quite
conceivable that someday the assumption will have to be rejected. But it
is important also to see that we have not reached that day yet: the working
assumption is a necessary one and there is no real evidence opposed to it.
Our failure to solve a problem so far does not make it insoluble. One cannot
logically be a determinist in physics and biology, and a mystic in psychology.
-- D.O. Hebb, "Organization of Behavior: A Neuropsychological
Theory", 1949
