Incident: The consumer says she finished cooking and went to clean the microwave and noticed the side panel had melted from the bottom up. She had not used the microwave that day as she was cooking with the oven. The consumer contacted the manufacturer who offered $85 for a replacement shield. She feels that the control panel needs replacement. The manufacturer told her that because she has tiles in her kitchen it generated the heat with melted the panel which she cannot believe. She says this model was made to be vented which she does not know if it is a reason for unit melting on the inside. The consumer would just like the panel be replaced.

Incident: We have a Sharp Microwave Oven Drawer, Model KB6025MS, manufactured in May 2008. It has a round insert in the top of the microwave, secured by four plastic clips. The insert deteriorated over time (unknown to us, as it is difficult to see up inside the drawer), and eventually caught fire.

Incident: My Sharp microwave model R-308HK has melted plastic near the LCD readout on the outer surface of the microwave covering. I am witnessing a burn smell from the inside of the microwave. I don't know whether to use it or not. It is still working. We used it for 25 seconds when we witnessed a burning smell inside. We just heated a cup of coffee for 20 seconds and there is no smell now. I feel this microwave is a trap for consumers with a risk for fire because some consumers may continue using this product after burn smell because they might think their smell came from the food and it isn't.

Incident: Microwave flashes dramatically (not sparking) when heating food, as if it is going to explode. Very frightening! Although it is probably off warranty (a little under 2 years old) this is not really a warranty issue as much as a safety issue. It belongs to my former spouse and she was continuing to use it, standing by to quickly hit the stop button. I was concerned for her safety, as well as our son's, so encouraged her to remove it ASAP and said I'd check to see if there was a recall on it and if there wasn't that I would report it.

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20220720-1F4BA-2147354858. Matched catalog product: Sharp The model is SMC2265KS.. Source model text: R-459TW. Incident: For several years, I've used my Sharp R-459YW microwave oven to heat up soup, make popcorn, heat frozen meals, etc. On July, 15, 2022, I had just heated soup. After that, I attempted to make microwave popcorn. About one minute into the process, I smelled a burnt electronics smell and heard a crackling "static" sound. I approached the front of the microwave oven and saw the interior light flickering as the crackle continued. So, I stopped the cooking process and looked inside. Smoke drifted out after the door was opened. On the right wall of the interior, there was a charred burn mark to the top. The wall looked melted in one area. There was a strong burnt electronic smell, too. Fearing a fire hazard, I unplugged the unit.

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20130920-C4DDA-2147451698. Matched catalog product: Sharp The model is SMC2265KS.. Source model text: R-1214F. Incident: I have a Sharp Over the Counter Microwave, Model # R-1214F, Serial # 418658. It is 6 years old. Yesterday it began turning itself on and then running. There was nothing inside but the carousel turned and the light was on just as if I had turned it on. It would not stop if I pressed the stop button. Instead, I had to open the door. It did this repeatedly, which I found frightening because I assume it could be a fire hazard. I unplugged the microwave and also sent an e-mail to Sharp USA. What should I do? I know I will have to replace it but I don't want someone else to try to use it so I think it should be destroyed unless it can be repaired.

Incident: this is the 2nd microwave oven we bought by Sharp..the first one after having for less than a year started shooting flames from it but since we had no receipt we were unable to prove anything. We just purchased a 2nd one on July 18th and it got so hot on the outside we unplugged it and are afraid to plug back in and use. We spoke with someone at Sharp who told us they would send us to their safety office because the model we had was an explosive model!!!! I don't want anyone who owns one to go to bed and wake up to their house on fire!!!! Sharp has agreed after I told them I would contact you, TV and the BBB to replace with another brand new model not the same one I have. Please put out a recall notice because it got so hot it was like placing your hand on a burner after just cooking something on your stove.

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20161025-E6C88-1603293. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Sharp The model is SMC2265KS.. Source model text: R-1214-T. Incident: I plugged in a brand new Sharp microwave and turned it on to make sure it actually worked before mounting it to the wall. It immediately began smoking, thick grey plumes coming out of it. Then my husband googled it and there are several reports of this model (R-1214-T) catching on fire and/or smoking. This was 3 years old, but had never been used. It was stored inside of our house in the basement bar area, waiting for us to finish moving in. I knew a return would be a painful process so I took it to the local repair shop thinking it would be a $50 maximum repair. I was wrong, and ended up being quoted $250 to repair the $400 unit! When I called SHARP to report it, they stated that there's always a percentage of failures and that online reports are not a real representation of the total # of failures, so there was no need to alert the public. They also stated that they would not repair or replace the unit due to the age, regardless of the unit being brand new and a known defective design. I'm hoping that this report will alert the USCPSC that this design is known to cause fires due to an overpowered transformer. I would request that you require SHARP to alert consumers of this fire hazard and offer to replace the defective component with the appropriately powered transformer as soon as possible.

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20141231-DA807-2147437133. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Sharp The model is SMC2265KS.. Source model text: R-1875-T. Incident: Replaced a 24 year old Sharp Carousel II convection over the range oven when it stopped working with a Sharp R-1875-T Over the Range Convection Microwave Oven serial number 526367. The unit was delivered on 12/13/2014 and installed on 12/16/2014. Today, 12/31/2014 my wife was microwaving vegetables when the unit began to smoke. She had been using the unit for approximately 20 minutes for 4 batches of vegetables and had just started her 5th which was a batch of carrots. All cooking was in [REDACTED] dishes. She unplugged the unit and yelled for me. I pulled the grease filters to see if I could see anything in the unit and saw flames in the right rear area behind the control panel. I used a small Halon fire extinguisher to put out the flames while my wife called the fire department. The firemen helped me dismount the unit and place it outside in the yard.

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20260302-F918D-2147323080. Severity: No Incident, No Injury. Product: Sharp The model is SMC2265KS. (It is a Sharp 2.2 cu. ft. 1200W Stainless Steel Countertop Microwave Oven. The model is SMC2265KS. The serial number is M24Z14 18080. It was purchased from Lowes in May 2025.). Incident: I was making a cake based treat in my microwave that I make regularly. I went out side for 10 minutes to do some yard work. When I reentered the house, it was completely filled with smoke to the point it was hard to breathe. I raced around the house for 2-3 minutes trying to figure out what was on fire, before I discovered the microwave had overheated and failed to shut off. Microwaves have safety features that would never let a microwave get to this point and would shut off. MINE DID NOT. It got so hot it melted the plastic insert the tray sits on and the tray fused to the insert. The inside is destroyed. I immediately unplugged the unit and got it out of the house. Opened all the windows and put fans around to clear the smoke. I opened a claim with Sharp, case number [REDACTED], on a warranty claim as it's within it's 1 year warranty. Sharp took 5 days to "evaluate" and has claimed I made the cake wrong and they are denying my claim. Ludicrous. They nearly burned down my house and tell me their product's failure was because I was making a cake treat, I've made dozens of times before, caused the microwave's failure.
