Sharp R24ATR Commercial Microwave Oven 1900W
£581.00(£697.20 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Sharp R24ATR is a 1900W commercial microwave designed for continuous, back-to-back use in professional catering environments. It sits towards the upper end of the commercial microwave range, offering meaningfully more output than semi-commercial or light-duty units that can struggle to sustain consistent performance across a busy service.
In practice, the R24ATR holds up well under the repeated demands of a working kitchen. Twenty preset programmes allow different members of staff to reheat and cook common menu items without adjusting settings mid-service, which supports consistency across shifts and reduces the risk of variable results. Eleven selectable power levels give operators precise control over heating — useful when working with sauces, delicate proteins, or plated dishes that need warming through carefully rather than at full power. An express defrost function suits kitchens incorporating frozen product into their prep cycle, reducing thaw time without requiring extended planning. A dual stirrer system distributes energy across the cavity to minimise hot spots and the rework they cause.
- 20 presets for repeatable results across staff and shifts
- 11 power levels for controlled heating of varied and delicate dishes
- Express defrost reduces prep time when working with frozen product
- Dual stirrer system minimises hot spots and uneven heating
- Stackable design supports two-unit configurations on limited counter space
Installation is straightforward. The unit is a countertop appliance requiring only a standard electrical connection — no gas or water supply needed. Its stackable design is a practical advantage where worktop space is limited; running two units stacked can increase throughput without additional infrastructure or a larger footprint. The interior is straightforward to clean, which is relevant in kitchens subject to routine hygiene inspection.
The R24ATR is well suited to cafés, pub kitchens, staff canteens, and quick-service restaurants where a high-power microwave is in near-constant use throughout the day. It works well as the primary unit in a medium-volume kitchen and as a second unit in busier sites. For very high-volume operations handling a large number of simultaneous covers, it is worth considering whether a two-unit setup or a heavier-duty model would better meet throughput requirements.
If you are weighing up how this unit fits your service pattern or kitchen layout, the team is glad to talk it through before you commit.
Frequently asked questions
Is the R24ATR suitable as the only microwave in a busy kitchen?
It works well as a primary unit in medium-volume operations — cafés, pub kitchens, canteens, and similar sites where the microwave is in regular but not relentless use. For kitchens running high cover counts with constant microwave demand throughout service, a two-unit setup or a higher-specification model is worth considering to avoid bottlenecks.
What does the unit need for installation?
The R24ATR is a countertop appliance requiring only a standard electrical connection — there is no gas line or water supply needed. It is stackable, so two units can be run in a compact configuration where worktop space is limited, without any additional infrastructure beyond a second socket.
How does the power level control help in a working kitchen?
With eleven selectable power levels, operators can step down from full power when working with dishes that need careful handling — sauces that can scorch, delicate proteins, or plated meals that need warming through evenly. This reduces the risk of overheating and the waste or rework that follows, which matters when service is moving quickly.
