Modern and practical, this stylish microwave from Sharp will sit beautifully on your kitchen’s countertop. As well as having a 25 litre capacity, it also features a turntable-free flatbed design, giving you extra space inside to fit large dishes. This model’s 900 Watt output is super-powerful too, so even if you pile your plate high with leftover veggies, it’ll reheat the entire meal in a matter of minutes. Plus, not only do the pre-installed programmes make life a lot easier, so does the timer, as you’ll always know when your creation is ready. And because the convection option cooks food all the way through, it lets you bake and roast like a conventional oven – meaning pizza night is definitely on the cards.

- holeymoley18Not sure if I'd like a bottom opening door as much as a side one
mkpianistYour mileage may vary, but I’ve found top-opening doors so much more convenient than the side-opening doors (which for some reason, are only available with hinges on the left-hand side). With a top-opening door, you have unobscured access to the oven cavity, and no door potentially swinging into your way. After use, it’s easy to keep the door slightly ajar to allow steam to escape.
And, as mentioned, if you’re placing the microwave next to a wall or kitchen unit on the right hand side, this is a real pain with most microwaves). 
smudger00000000Ridiculous question of the day, but if anyone's able to help that'll be great thanks
Is this tall enough to fit packets of microwavable rice without the packet touching the top of the microwave ?
We've previously purchased a Russell Hobbs microwave that kept knocking the rice packets over due to the height
Thanks
And nice find OP, thank you. (edited)
TECHNOMANIt doesn't turn the packets so even if they touch the top it won't be a problem.
louiselouiseThe newer Sharp combis aren't very good, so I've heard. It's the Sharp R959 you want - it's a classic of many decades and many purchasers rebuy this model, they like it so much. Huge capacity as well at 40L. Sometimes Amazon have it around £170.
Amazon is OOS at the moment, though amazon.co.uk/Sha…IDO
The grill is used to pre-heat the oven initially, to get it up to temperature before you put your food in - never had any problems with it (some complain about it burning the top but I wonder if they've just not read instructions) and I've used it more than my own Panasonic Premium Combi lately!
The Sharp brand has been owned by Vestel for some years now - some speculate the quality has dipped, so, YMMV. (edited)
PsxgulBy buying that R959 isn't made by Vestel?
L33TL33I miss the good old days when microwaves had full number pads on- kp703Anyone know the difference between this model and the R861SLM?
Ciara_SweeneyMy mistake above, I think mine is actually the SLM 
jarad99£103.20 on Ebay with DEAL20 (wd be a bit cheeky to post as separate deal so maybe this deal OP could add it into description). +TCB wd make it £102 or thereabouts.
itsamemariolooking for a new one to replace mine that the ovens conked out on, 200 degrees is a bit low, thankfully one of the reviews is more helpful than the specifications on the site :/ sounds positive in general though.
goodevilFlatbed and 900w looks pretty good, reviews say it does the job. Considering getting this to replace my old Russell hobbs one that is junk. (edited)
KopiteLFCGood deal have some heat also 5% discount with blue light card (edited)- Ciara_SweeneyI have this and it's great. Only negative is Sharp basically have zero recipes on their sites for their particular mix of wattages so it will take you time to figure out the right settings if you're using grill / convection elements.
Otherwise as a big flatbed 900 it does the job and I do like the bottom open door.
Edit: sorry, mine is the 861 SLM not KM. (edited)kp703Hi,
Was looking at buying this earlier today but then found the internal depth (19.7cm) quite small. Please can you confirm if that is correct? In the specs, it says the turntable diameter is 30cm so how does that work? - oldwallasianPerfect. Just bought on Ebay with the discount. This is just what we needed to replace our rusty old Toshiba one
- Baloch777These are good and can last 4-5 years and I think this is more then enough for this price. Mine sharp microwave after 4-5 years bulb became fused and now it's became automatic so no control with buttons just main switched. Yesterday order panasonic inverter flatbed with discount code 169/- so this time decided try panasonic as last 8-9 years I used two sharp.LidHi, I've been looking for a flatbed microwave for quite a while and was just about to go for the Sharp in this post. Can I ask which Panasonic you got and where from please?
AncientYouthsuperb microwave once you go flatbed you'll never go back, had mine about 2 years great purchase- smudger00000000Just purchased through eBay, thank you OP 🔥
Daniel_PeggI've had this microwave for a few years now. I can confirm it cooks porridge perfectly, I can't comment on the rest of the featureskp703Hi,

LloydThanks for your posting your first deal @Blades and welcome
Blades AuthorNo Worries- maliksoulatI need a microwave oven that works as an air fryer too. Shall I buy this one?
macsasidivocAnyone know where to get an internal shelf for this model? as you don't get one in box and there are clearly 2 sets of shelf supports inside for when you use conventional oven or grill.
Taksim_RedOrdered the eBay one. Surprised it hasn't been posted as a deal yet.TECHNOMANDuh ,post it then!
superuserOrdered via eBay. Thanks OP and contributors for eBay deal.
natnhayHi do you have a link for item on ao eBay link at top doesn't work.Thanksjarad99just put Sharp I series R861KM 25 Litre Combination Microwave Oven into Ebay search - and AO pops up
Pinksparkles1973Hi, I am about to order this off AO but it's saying £3.99 delivery?..... did you use a code for free delivery please?
I can't seem to find any discount codes, has anyone managed to use one?
Shame this black one isn't available on their ebay store, only seems to be the one with silver sides and topsmudger00000000I had this colour option delivered today from the AO Ebay site, are you positive that there's more than one colour option available ? When I purchased there was no option on colour choice, it may be well worth double checking.- LidI've received mine today and it appears to be faulty. The grill is working but the microwave only option doesn't heat at all. It's weird because it sounds like it's working. When setting a lower power option it comes on and off as you would expect but nothing heats up even the slightest amount.
Strong start. Hopefully AO via eBay handle it quickly. Not sure if I should try a replacement or not now.LidIn case anyone wanted to know. Currently I'm not overly impressed with AO. I've asked for a replacement as this was dead on arrival. They have said I have to contact Sharp and go through troubleshooting with them and then they might send out an engineer to repair it or suggest something else. Not sure if it's just me, but I don't expect to be dealing with the manufacturer like it's a warranty claim when it's DOA. 
YGWYPFVoted hot because although it doesn't suit my kitchen it is still a good deal.
spufmonkeyGood deal.. Ordered yesterday, due to be delivered tomorrow.. randomly checked Ebay.. Returned one on there for £80 too late to cancel.
