Microwave Sharp Carousel

#1 : Sharp Carousel Microwave-Sharp R820BK BB 0.9 Cu Ft black ...

My oven arrived ahead of schedule, which was very nice. I’m still learning the different functions. I baked a rhubarb pie and the crust didn’t burn before the pie was done like in my conventional oven. The popcorn button worked very well and I toasted bread on the grill function. It takes a little longer than a toaster, but, that’s all I have is time and very little counter space.

bought this b/c some stuff you just can’t do in a microwave, like bake, roast etc…. i’m not much of a chef, but needed something more than a microwave that saved some space. checked a few different combo units (ie, cusinart also makes one) but decided on the sharp. it microwaves fine, a microwave is a microwave! tho actually i have burned some popcorn with it, even tho i use the popcorn setting. i haven’t done anything as big as roasted a chicken in it, but because i have some gourmets in the family who actually want to do that, as well as bake, it’s nice to know you can do that in this. the one “baking” thing i have done is make a rising crust pizza (frozen, store bought) in this. i did notice that after preheating the oven for whatever like 9 minutes, per the pizza instructions, the oven didn’t really seem that hot. it said to bake the pizza for 13. i did, it wasn’t fully baked, so i kept it in another 3 minutes and that did the trick. definitely felt and tasted like baked oven pizza not microwave so again, yes very nice to have these features and the baking option. i do know one family member used it to bake cookies, and he always complains if something doesn’t come out right. he didn’t complain, so i guess it must actually bake cookies well too.
