But if those options don't appeal to you, our team has also documented the phone menu for Sharp below.

Let us call and talk to Sharp for you

Our AI powered phone can dial, navigate the phone menu, wait on hold, and even talk to customer service for you, for free. You don't even need to learn about the path through the various phone options.

We can get a live person on the line for you

That same, free GetHuman Phone can call and navigate the menus and wait on hold for you, but you can opt to do all the talking. We notify you when a rep is on the line and ready to talk, so no need to worry about changing menu options and weaving your way through the maze.
Of course, we completely understand if you prefer to do all the dialing, waiting, and talking yourself. All of these free tools are optional.
GetHuman researchers routinely call this Sharp phone number to document the phone system.
Here is how our research team describes the way the Sharp phone system greets you: For customer service, product repair, parts, or accessory sales, press or say 1. For the nearest Sharp location, press or say 2. For extended warranty information, press or say 3.
Here is our latest tip for weaving through the phone menu to get to a real person the fastest: Press 1 then 1
Below are some clips we've found from Sharp's phone menus and tips that help give an idea of what you will encounter when you call. We've highlighted why they are important as well:

What are the hours and when should I call?

Sharp operates the call center for this 800-237-4277 phone number Mon-Fri 8am-8pm, Sat-Sun 10am-8pm. The short answer is that you should call on a Tuesday. This observation and the following section are based on analysis of a sample set of 208 calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).

Automatically call when they open

When you use our free AI-powered phone to call and talk, wait on hold, or navigate for you, it will automatically wait until the Sharp call center opens before trying to call. It will ask your permission before it places the call, so you can also further delay that scheduled call until you are ready. But that means you can "set it and forget it" ahead of time.
An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this Sharp phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like Sharp staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.

The least busy time to call

The least busy day to call Sharp is Sunday. The most busy day to call is Wednesday, which averages 614% more phone calls by comparison. Again, this is based on a sample of 208 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

The shortest wait on hold

We measured the shortest hold times to be on Monday. The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Thursday.
But if you use our free call and talk for me or wait on hold for me service, you don't really need to worry about average wait times.

The best time to call Sharp

In summation, the best day to call Sharp is Tuesday.

My dishwasher has been acting quite erratically, and at this point, I don't think that it is a user error. Sometimes, it runs a full cycle, and other times, the cycle seems to end in just 5 minutes. In addition, sometimes when I open it, there is still water sitting at the bottom of the dishwasher. The dishwasher is only a few years old, so I really don't think that I should be having issues with it yet. That's why I figured that I would call Sharp and see what they could do for me about the situation. 

I know that Sharp makes a lot of different types of household appliances from TVs to microwaves to tea makers, so I wasn't quite sure how the phone call was going to go. I didn't know if I would end up on hold for a while or if I was even going to be able to talk to someone. Sometimes, you end up getting told to make a claim or something in these types of situations and nothing ever happens. Either way, I figured this would be worth a shot. It didn't turn out to be too terrible of an experience, but the agent had a very thick accent and was clearly outsourced. 

When I first called, the voice assistant greeted me by saying, "Thank you for calling Sharp Electronics Corp. Visit us at our website Sharpusa.com for information on our products and answers to your most frequently asked questions." It then went on to give me a few options stating, "For customer service, product repair, or parts and accessories sales, press or say 1. For your nearest Sharp authorized location, press or say 2. For extended warranty information, press or say 3." I chose 1 because that seemed to cover all the bases, which led to another menu. 

This menu gave me a bunch of additional options including, "For appliances, press or say 1. For TVs, press or say 2. For interactive whiteboards, professional projectors, or professional monitors, press or say 3. For cash registers, press or say 4. For home office products including printers, press or say 5. For home entertainment or audio products, press or say 6. For solar, press or say 7. For general inquiries or support on your calculator, please contact Victor." The Victor thing was actually kind of odd, but I didn't need calculator assistance, so I just ignored it and pressed 1 for appliances. Then, it asked me if I was calling for commercial or consumer appliances, and I answered, "Consumer appliances."

I finally got to my last menu. This time, it asked me for an oddly specific list of options. Maybe their microwaves, air purifiers, super steam ovens and tea makers have the most problems. I didn't need help with any of that, so I chose the last option for more appliances and was instantly connected to Whitney. She had a very thick accent but did offer me some service options and troubleshooting suggestions.

More Sharp Customer Service Contacts

There are of course other ways to contact Sharp customer service besides the phone. Below we list the best ones, by medium.

Sharp Customer Service Live Chat

sharpusa.com - Customer Service
Use this link to connect with customer service via chat
If phone-based customer service is not available, or the wait times are long, many people prefer chat as a next-best option. Some even prefer it to calling on the phone. Luckily, Sharp provides this option.

Sharp Customer Service on X (formerly Twitter)

twitter.com/SharpSupportUSA - Technical Support
Use the link to connect with customer service through Twitter
Sharp, like many companies, provides customer service on the X platform (formerly Twitter). While it rarely entails live dialogue with a customer service rep, this channel can yield rapid response times and can be a useful option if you have an X/Twitter account.

Sharp Customer Help Desk / Web Support

sharpusa.com - Customer Service
Online customer service support
As a last, sometimes only, resort- Sharp customer service can be accessed through their website. This can entail digging through help articles before finding a form and "being allowed" to submit a problem to their team, and rarely leads to a real-time conversation, which is why GetHuman does not recommend this unless it's the only way.
