Allmusic.com gave When a Man Loves a Woman a 4 1/2 star review:
A country-soul masterpiece. The title track remains among the most beloved, anthemic explanations of love’s impact and travails ever written or performed. Had Sledge never made another song, he would still deserve kudos just for that one. But he continued to score with more simple, heartfelt, unsophisticated stories about disappointment, pain, rejection, and perseverance.
