Overview

The Sharp SMC1452CH earns its counter space by handling the most common kitchen tasks — reheating a bowl of soup, defrosting chicken for tonight's dinner, steaming a quick vegetable side — without requiring calibration on your part. The Sensor Cook menu reads steam output from the food and adjusts time automatically, which means reheated pasta comes out uniformly hot rather than scorched at the edges and cold in the middle. At 1100 watts with 10 adjustable power levels, it moves quickly through dense portions, and the +30 SEC key keeps you in control when you want to check doneness before committing to more time. Multi-stage cooking handles the defrost-then-cook sequence hands-free — practical when you're managing multiple burners and can't babysit the microwave through two steps.

The 1.4 cu. ft. cavity and 12.4-inch glass carousel turntable handle everything from a standard dinner plate to a large casserole dish without the tight clearance that makes repositioning food mid-cook a routine exercise. The touch panel with blue LED display is clean and easy to read, and the child lock adds a layer of safety in households with young children. Storage-wise, this is a unit that needs its own dedicated countertop position — the exterior dimensions are not compact, and it won't squeeze into a corner that a smaller 0.9 cu. ft. unit might fit. For kitchens with the space, the combination of sensor cooking, express start, and two-stage sequences covers a wide range of everyday cooking needs efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions

Sensor Cook measures the steam emitted by food as it heats and adjusts cooking time and power automatically based on that feedback. In practice, this means reheated leftovers come out uniformly hot throughout — not scorched at the edges and cold in the center — because the microwave responds to what's actually happening inside, rather than following a fixed timer you estimated by feel.
Auto defrost uses the weight you enter to calculate a time and power sequence optimized for thawing. It performs reliably for standard portions of chicken, ground beef, and fish. For unusually dense or thick-cut items, checking midway and separating pieces as they thaw will improve evenness — that's true of any non-inverter microwave's defrost mode, not a specific flaw of this unit.
Yes — the multi-stage cooking function supports up to two sequential steps. You can program a defrost stage followed by a cook stage, set it, and walk away. The microwave moves through both phases automatically, which is particularly useful during dinner prep when you're working other appliances simultaneously.
The +30 SEC key immediately starts or extends cooking at full power in 30-second increments. It's most useful mid-cycle when you've pulled something out to check doneness and want to add a short burst without re-navigating the full menu — it functions as a one-press time add while the unit is running or after it stops.
Yes — when child lock is engaged, the control panel is disabled and the unit won't start. It needs to be manually re-engaged after each adult use if you want continuous protection, so factor that into your kitchen routine if consistent lockout is a priority.
