Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the sleek design, ease of use, and appealing appearance of the 1.4 Cu. Ft. Built-In Microwave. Many find the heating to be accurate, the noise level to be low, and the interior size to be ample, while also noting its powerful performance and easy installation.

    Just purchase this appliance 3 months ago and it stopped working. Does not warm up anything anymore. This is quite the disappointment after spending 1,400 $$ for it.

    Completely Functional, But

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The microwave functions fine, no better or worse. Generally looks good. But, what bothers me and therefore makes me not want to recommend this is. 1. There is no freaking timer on this. There is a timer for cooking, but if you want a timer for general use in the kitchen it is not available on this microwave. The product description isn't clear because it says it comes with a timer, but this is only for cooking. 2. The kitchenmaid logo on the front of the microwave is large and obnoxious. Gaudy. My micro is placed above my coffee maker so maybe it's noticeable because the logo is a little below eye level. If you don't need a timer and the gaudy logo doesn't bother you, this functions fine.

    Maybe too complicated, but very good quality.

    Matches the rest of our kitchen and seems very well built, as KitchenAid always is. But, look closely, this microwave has no keypad at all. Everyone knows how to run a microwave. Not this one. I think they went overboard with the pre-programming. Maybe I'll feel differently after using it a while.

    what warranty?

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I spent a lot of time researching microwaves before buying the 2014 model. I mean weeks and months. I went with this microwave because there weren't any bad reviews and since it was so pricey and came with a five year warranty on its electrical and touch control parts, I felt there was a great chance this would last. It didn't. The fuse went out before two years were up related to the force of the door being closed. (As you can tell, the door closes upward and not sideways causing it to exert force when it closes). So I went through the kitchen aid warranty to get a service representative. I paid 85$ for them to assess it and give me a quote. I told him we were under warranty still for the electrical. He said that fuses weren't covered under electrical. And so the two safety switches and thermostat (which automatically go out when the fuse breaks according to the rep.), and fuse plus labor came to 480.62. Not worth it. What warranty?

    Weak power microwave

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    As everyone says very stylish, but this replaced a $150 microwave and I find it has nowhere near the power of the $150 old microwave. For the money, it is not worth it

    Faulty display DO NOT BUY!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Display went out twice in a span of four years. And it cost $250 to get fixed. When a display goes out multiple of times there is something wrong. Be warned!

    $500 to change the light bulb.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    You have to take the microwave out of the wall, and almost completely dissassemble it to change the light bulb. That fact alone disqualified this unit from being acceptable. Do not buy it.

    Expensive. Bulb change requires disassembly

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    When the halogen bulb eventually dies, you will need to completely remove this from the wall and disassemble the microwave in order to change the bulb. This is an unacceptable design flaw.

    Bleating sheep in my kitchen

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I only wanted one feature in my microwave: silence. $1100 later I can't turn the infernal "tones" off so the microwave bleats at me every time I touch it. It says the tones can be turned off but it doesn't say how. Infuriating.
