Sharp's first countertop smart microwave oven sets itself apart with Wi-Fi connectivity and compatibility with Alexa to support hands-free commands in the kitchen. Thanks to the voice assistant feature, the smart microwave gives people the power to say "Alexa, microwave fresh vegetables" to activate the Fresh Vegetables preset.
The Sharp Smart Countertop Microwave Oven can also take voice commands to start or stop the current cooking cycle, or add time as needed. There are plenty of other time and power settings to play with, as the smart microwave offers more presets than are listed on the control panel. The smart appliance is designed to take the guesswork out of cooking in the home kitchen.
