Rating : 3 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Pretty but flawed
I should start by explaining that I kept this microwave for all of one day for reasons that will become clear, so I haven't really had the chance to rate it's effectiveness in cooking.
Unfortunately, my Hinari MX731 arrived with a defective fan, which made a loud knocking noise from the very first use (as if catching on something internally). Amazon were their usual efficient selves in accepting it back for a refund, though. What this says for build quality, I don't know - I probably just got a defective unit.
The unit looks fantastic - neither large nor particularly small, the stainless steel all over finish looks more expensive than the price tag suggests, and the button fascia with dial adds some modern elegance (so I feel). The retro 'rod' handle isn't to everyone's taste, but I liked this too and it feels more solid than some more expensive models' equivalent. As others have commented, no stainless steel interior here, so avoid if you're specifically after one.
The weakest point of this microwave by far is the control panel, though. While the dial and buttons operation look great, they are not intuitive to use - selecting defrost etc. can take practice, as some have said. Much worse is that the microwave emits a loud, piercing 'beep' every time the digits on the display alter by one. So, if say you want to cook something for 15 mins., it beeps through each option, then beeps 15 times for every extra minute you turn the dial. So annoying! I don't think you can turn this off, but other users may be able to advise. I know most ovens beep, but at least with touch control, you can usually select increments of '10 mins'.
So, just a summary of first impressions and overall I would say that this is a good value unit, but one that puts aesthetics before practical usage.

Rating : 2 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Over spohisticated and unreliable
This machine has too many fancy features that look useful in the shop but have never been used in practice. No great thought seems to have gone into the design, e.g you can't clear any programmed time with the door open, you have to close it first and if you switch the machine off and on again you have to set the time before you can microwave your ready-meal. And the display packed up on my machine about 14 months after purchase.

Summary : great
I have had this oven for the last 8 months and this has been really useful cooks food very well and because I don't have a oven it is a perfect alternative and would suit anyone who doesn't have enough room for an oven, or just someone who want a good quality microwave which can be used as grill and oven as well. another good product from sharp highly recommend it.

Summary : A mint microwave.
I recently bought this microwave as I really rate Panasonic products. This is no exception! It's probaly the best combination oven there is. The price was great as well!

It's relatively easy to use, the recipe book helps!
To sum up, a belting combo microwave oven, every home should have one!

Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : GREAT VALUE
Looks much more expensive than it is. All the functions you would expect from a higher priced model, I probably won't use half of them!
This model cost half of my last one which has only lasted 3 years.
Easy to use. Excellent value.

Title : Daewoo KOR-63MDC Touch Microwave Oven White 800W 20L
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Works well, but the timer....
Works just like it says on the box.
Even cooking and simple to use.
Robust and well built.
Annoying fact: The timer is fixed, 1, 3, 5 minutes etc.
So if the Chicken Vindaloo says 4 mins, stir and 4 mins, you end up just doing 5 mins, stir and 3 mins instead because you can't be bothered to clock watch.
Still it does cook exceedingly good Vindaloos....
