  • Whirlpool 1.1 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave with Sensor Cooking

Q: I've read concerns of air recirculating back into kitchen even when hooked up to outside duct system. Is there a solution for this?

A: I just spoke to a tech about the strong air blowing out the front left vent above the door. He said the fan has to be reversed to vent into the ceiling vent. It comes from the factory with recirculation back into the kitchen. They are coming next week. I will update.

Q: Where is the start button?????

A: It’s the little arrow on the front. You set the time inside and close door and hit the arrow. If you don’t set a time inside , the arrow will just do 30 seconds as a default time

Q: Does whirlpool microwave model WML55011HB have to be vented to the outside, or can it use recirculation instead?

A: Hello Paperbirch! This unit is manufactured to recirculate into the home but can be adjusted to vent to the outside. Thank you for your inquiry on our Whirlpool appliances.

Q: Does this unit have to vent out the top or wall? Or can it vent into the room like the vent I’m replacing

A: User: Dontbuythis is full of misinformation! The unit can vent into the room (recirculating); the intake is through 2 charcoal/grease filters on the bottom & it vents out on top right behind the door. It can also be setup to vent horizontally through the wall or vertically through the roof. It comes out of the box setup for recirculation. The instructions DO NOT make this clear! If you simply want to vent into the room, don’t touch a thing! Also, dontbuythis keeps insisting the bulb is not replaceable, or that it will be $150 to have a new board put in. This is ridiculous! The halogen bulb is easily replaceable in both the over (one screw) and underneath (4 screws) and they are readily available online and in some stores.

Q: Whirlpool low profile microwave wml55021hs it sticks out 3 inches further than opposing cabinets I would like to see pictures from side and front to see the “look” of that please

A: Jill, The unit does stick out further than my cabinets as well. Initially I thought it looked a bit odd until everything else was in place. Now, all I get are rave reviews of its appearance in my small compact kitchen. Instead of being an eyesore or looking like the odd man out as far as built-ins and countertop pieces go, it distinguishes itself with a sleek profile a beautiful display and soft lighting. The automatic door open feature with one simple touch, is wonderful. You will not regret this purchase, it’s just different than what we are accustomed to.

Q: Hi ! Im torn between Whirlpool and Kitchenaid, other than the LED lights for the stove top, any other differences between this Whirlpool model WML55011HS vs the more expensive KitchenAid Model KMLS311HSS ?

A: I just purchased this Whirlpool microwave as part of an entire kitchen suite. I didn't research the Kitchenaid prior to purchase, but I did just review the specs and don't see any other differences. I am quite pleased with the Whirlpool microwave, probably my favorite of the four appliances. It seems to be very thoughtfully designed. For instance, if I put a mug into warm, and choose the 30 secs and go button on the outside, the mug handle stops in the exact same position as when I put in it. I replaced a range hood withe the microwave, the low profile was just what I needed. I also used Best Buy's installation services, they did a good job of converting the electric wires to an outlet and mounting the microwave. In the three weeks I have had it, I have only used the light, 30 sec and open buttons, all of which are on the outside. More detailed controls are available once the door is open, but I have not needed them so far. I can't see any downside to purchasing the Whirlpool vs the Kitchenaid.

Q: Does this microwave only vent to the outside or can it recirculate back into the kitchen?

A: Yes, just installed mine a couple of weeks ago, and it vents to the kitchen. Don't let all the instructions on how to vent to the outside throw you off.
