Perfect -- does all the basics. Switched from a large convection model to this slim line version and couldn't be happier. The fan works so much better - quite impressive. Happy to have converted back to a regular microwave

The microwave works great, heats food quick and looks really modern. I like that it is all touch screen but you can still pull the bottom to open the door if needed. I don’t think it is worth the almost $500 it costs but since it’s the only low profile microwave on the market, you don’t really have a choice. Not a huge deal but there is no rack in this microwave like there are in the regular size ones.

Our house was build in 1973 with Amish-built cabinets and an over-range hood. This is a perfect replacement for that hood and looks great! We were concerned that we would not be able to heat taller cups in it, but so far everything (just barely) fits! I can also fit an entire large pizza box in it! The button layout and overall design is very good.

I was concerned I would think the low-profile would look odd (it was the only microwave that would fit the space, but it looks just fine. It is easy to use once you get used to where the time settings are (consider the source: my old microwave was on the counter and about 20 years old - so all of this was an adjustment for me).

I love to cook and the new stove was too close to the new microwave. Went to investigate my options. This was my first experience with this microwave. It was beyond my expectations. The fan has several speeds, two light levels, and really cool auto door opener. It’s very sleek and when you open it there is a very elegant interior.

Great microwave. Should have gone with an over the range model years ago. I was lucky and able to vent straight out the back and through the wall. My only complaint is no controls on the outside. All buttons aside from Start (+30sec) and cancel are inside the door.
There is a touch button that automatically opens the door, but I never use it. You still need a free hand to use the button so we just end up manually opening it anyway.

I love my low profile over the range microwave from Whirlpool! It really upgraded the look my kitchen. It’s sleek, easy to use and efficient. Best Buy installed it and did an amazing job. As I continue to update my kitchen, Best Buy and Whirlpool are on my list.

Very expensive, but it fit my space when nothing else would. Very happy with my purchase.

This is a great microwave. It has a low profile so it is less obtrusive than the larger ones. You can still fit a dinner plate sized dish or casserole sized platter inside. Also, I bought the one with the larger fan, so that what I'm cooking doesn't invade the whole house.

Beauty over function applies to this microwave. Does it bug me a lot? Initially... but I got used to it...
So the problem is that, the keypad is behind the door. So after you put your stuff in, you can't just slam the door and type on the keypad. You have to leave that door opened hanging around dangerously next to your head, type on the keypad, and then close the door and press start.
That's my only issue with this thing. But like I said I got used to it, it's fine. If it's 2 minutes, I rather just press "heat 30 seconds" four times.
This thing is beautiful though. It makes your kitchen looking so much better with this thing.
I got nothing else to say. It's a microwave, it's a range hood. And it works, and it's beautiful looking.

We are enjoying the slimline microwave we bought. It does have a learning curve but easy to figure out. The times for different processes is different than our regular size micro but we are figuring that out also. Only had it for a few weeks but would still buy it again.

Perfect for my kitchen. Because it is wider You can use with larger dishes than regular Microwave. Easy install, options for vent and filter included. The design of the rolling plate is poor. Keeps jumping off either because the 3 wheel track is not centered or the grooves for the plate are too shallow

This is a nice functional unit. It is not *quite* as powerful (thus not as quick to heat) as our larger over-the-range Whirlpool microwave was when the previous unit was newer. However I am not finding it to be a problem. If I have to wait 30 seconds or maybe a couple or few min longer on a big dish to heat, it's not a big deal. It is worth it to have this nice sleek design. I'm not even sure it is possible to get the higher wattages in this size unit, or if so whether they are a lot more expensive. This unit met our budget and requirements pretty well.
What I like: The lighting. The look and placement of the buttons, the clean non-obtrusive design,
What I don't love: The (capacitive) touch interface doesn't always register finger presses, so I find *sometimes* I have to touch a button more than once, or use my thumb instead of forefinger or vice versa, to get it to acknowledge I pressed a button. It's not a big deal. Most of the time button presses register, but it is worth being aware of. It is pretty reliable if the fingers are perfectly clean. If there's anything on your fingers, even a thin layer, you may have to put a moment or two more into pushing the buttons.

I started with one micro and then another then finally this one. The 2 before were nice and big but that was the problem they were to big to fit above the stove. Then to find out my coffee cup will fit into it this product is easy to program.

This is exactly what we were looking for in a microwave - low profile yet all the dishes we use for warming or cooking fit in fine. It was easy to install - I did it myself with the help of a friend. We like the fact that it fits perfectly into our space.

I am thrilled over this microwave. Was going to have to move my overhead cabinets due to space issues above stove with the normal over stove microwave. This microwave replaces the old vent fans space.It is more than plenty big enough for most all microwave needs , a compact height. I think it is over 12 inches tall inside I have had many complements on it. The fan is very strong and has three speeds. The lighting it produces is great. I am completely jazzed with it and saved all those contractor costs. You set the timers with oven door open cause they are hidden making it look very slick when closed without the buttons showing. Best purchase in awhile! Love it!!!

This microwave holds a 9X13 casserole dish, coffee cup and most dinner leftover dishes but is still compact and not claustrophobic over the stove. A little more expensive but makes the kitchen look very updated.
