Q: I’m also wanting to know if this microwave would go with the trim kit and in the place of model WMC30516AS0?

A: Hello Cindy! Yes, the Trim kits for this model would be 27" MK2167AZ and 30" MK2160AZ. The dimensions on this model are: Depth 17 1/4", Height 13", Width 21 3/4". The dimensions on model WMC30516AS0 are: Depth 17 1/4", Height 13, Width 21 3/4. Thank you for your inquiry on our Whirlpool appliances.

Q: What trim kit fits model WMC30516HZ ?

A: Hello, MK2160AZ 30 in. Microwave Trim Kit and MK2167AZ 27 in. Trim Kit for 1.6 cu. ft. Countertop Microwave. Hopefully this information is beneficial to you. Thank you for your inquiry regarding our Whirlpool appliances!

Q: what is the difference between WMC30516AS and WMC30516HZ? are both over-the-range microwave?

A: Hi Mike, thank you for your time in asking this. These are both Countertop Microwaves, so they will not work over a range. They can be installed in a cabinet with an optional trim kit to give a built in look. They are the same model, the WMC30516HZ is the new name we are using and it does have an updated control panel with White display color instead of blue. The WMC30516AS will not be available soon. Thanks again for your interest!

Q: What is the direct replacement for wmc30516as?

A: I replaced Whirlpool WMC30516HZ with this model was exact fit .

Q: Is the 13 in height just the cabinet or including the legs?

A: The actual height of the cabinet is 12”. With the legs, the height is approximately 13”. Because the door release requires so much pressure to unlatch the door, the microwave shifted every time I opened the door. My solution was to get a package of 4 white appliance vibration stoppers-that stopped the movement and added just over 1/4” to the height. This is a great microwave, by the way.

Q: What’s the difference between model WMC30516AW and model WMC30516HW? I know that the last letters in a model number represent the color, but both models say they are white.

A: TurtleDove, WMC30516HW has an option for preset selections and also includes cook/start, cook power and has an off/cancel button. We hope this helps!
