Yes...and way too much! This microwave has poor power and I do not recommend anyone buys it!! I will be replacing it soon as it is a very sub standard unit. Sharp has historically been a good product but this one is quite bad....

We did at first because ours was a 1200 watt, now we don't . It does just as good, especially since your was just 1100 to begin with. It is good microwave. The only thing i wish was the turn table, it gets off track & can be annoying to put back, but not that big of a deal.

I couldn't get this microwave to cook at all. I'm giving mine away. I went down to Best Buy and bought a Emerson (the same type) and took out an insurance policy on it!

GE Product information says it is 1800 watts. Seems rather high to me, perhaps check with GE Customer Service to verify. I have owned several over-the-range microwaves, most were 1500.

I have it in use on my 25 Cubic Ft. Refrigerator for some time now and have one on my freezer. I also us it on my Microwave. The micro wave one gave out after about six (6) years.

Yes you can adjust the power levels. We love this microwave. It heats quite fast but evenly. Very easy to install if you follow the instructions.

I have used it to monitor my refrigerator and it is excelent. From 05 watts to 150. I will try my microwave next but am not sure its maximum. Hope it can handle 1500 watts to test my heaters.

Judy, I would love to be able to answer this for you but I purchased this microwave on the information my contractor gave to me.. ..he approved it and I bought it but then found out my contractor did not measure correctly for the space it was to go in.. I am now unable to use it once my cabinets were put in.. I am more than angry and I cannot at this time return it even though it is unopened in the box I received because it is over the 30 day limit the company has.. I had even purchased the extended guarantee. I feel shafted by the seller and the contractor !

The maximum tempurature is a 1000watt microwave. Mine is 800 and it works fine.

You should be able to lower the power of your microwave, no? My microwave is a 1200W as well and I just use it on max. No problems.

Yes, microwave OK for 90 seconds of warming but probably not 5 minutes of defrosting or cooking. Why risk the art. For over 40 years I have used the same plates in the microwave for warming, with no evidence of bubbling, warping, or discoloration.

I have without any issues, I microwave it in a 1000 watt without any issues? Although I have never gone past 4:45 min in microwaving time :)

We have an 1800 watt Microwave and we cook them for 2 minutes....with an 1100 watt you might want to try 2:30 or 3:00

Molly,This microwave has a lot of sensor features that seem to work just great. I mainly use it to reheat or cook vegetables, potatoes, and thaw meat. The power is good and high. Externally, it seems to be sturdy, tight, and well constructed with a nice smooth finish. I would buy another one or suggest this model to my family members and friends.

Yes, I did. It is from someone other than Sharp. I am very happy with my microwave. Excellent choice I made, IMO.

Maximum wattage with 110v is 1800. My 3000W will literally heat water at least 3 times faster than a 1500W microwave. Most of the time I never use more than 1200W and when I do not even to 1800W. I am absolutely delighted with the unit that I have, although not perfect, the shortcomings are quite minor.

Sorry for the delayed response. Went to my spam. Basically it says that it delivers a more steady power when heating your food... even when using a lower temperature. I know with other microwaves, when I use a lower setting, you hear it click on and off. This microwave doesn't do it, thus providing a better heated food. I love this microwave. I love all the room it has too. I will never get a smaller one. ONLY this one. Get it!!
