Customer Ratings & Reviews

Wanted to replace my older range hood with a microwave. A traditional microwave would have hung too low and made it hard to access back burners on stove. This microwave is low profile and looks great and allows access to back of stove. If your home was built with microwave already above stove than this microwave isn’t necessary. As far as looks and operations it works great, has light on bottom to illuminate stove and a four speed exhaust fan than can be configured to recirculate or duct outside. Plenty of room inside and it’s super quiet. The fingerprint resistance model is best option.

The Low Profile Whirlpool model should be the only microwave you ever buy. Think about all the things you actually put in your microwave: plates to warm up food, maybe a cup to warm up coffee or tea. The existing models take up far too much space. I can't thank the Best Buy Rep enough for turning me on to this style. The only negative I have is that they charge almost $50 more for the "fingerprint resistant" style. Spoiler: It still gets fingerprints.

My first one only lasted 3 and a half years. My previous microwave lasted over 15 years. Is you have limited space over your stove, this is one of the few available. Just hope your luck is better then mine.

We wanted more working space above our oven/cook top and looked at a variety of microwaves and eventually selected this Whirlpool model with a low profile. Excellent choice. Sleek and slim, It has a powerful fan with 3 speeds, also a light with 3 levels of brightness and various cooking options. Unique in its design, it may not be for everyone since it’s height is a bit more narrow, but we use it mainly for heating up and/or reheating meals, snacks and things like soup etc. perfect for our needs. I would recommend this those looking for a low profile microwave to create more space above their oven/cook top.

Great microwave + latest tech + quiet + lots of sound, menu options + fast & powerful + very chic + quite compact - expensive

We had limited clearance with the way our current kitchen is configured. We didn't think we could do an over the stove microwave until we found this model. It is perfect. We rarely use our microwave for anything other than to warm up leftovers or a mug of water. Everything fits perfectly. It has tons of settings. It looks nice and sleek with a matching stove. We love it. Other than being more pricey than other, standard microwaves, we love it

This microwave is perfect for us! Plenty of room for all the foods we heat and defrost. It was easy for my husband and I to install. The template is a part of the support panel which was really nice. All the holes lined up perfectly and it was easy to use the wall anchors on the one side we didn't have a stud. I like the look and the functionality of this microwave and would definitely recommend it.

Very good microwave so far (had it since November 2020). The low profile looks good and the interior dimensions work great for everyday use. The exhaust fan was not as quiet or as powerful as I was hoping for. To open the door, you press a key on the touchpad instead of a mechanical push button. The light button is too close to the fan button and the buttons don't light up to be visible in the dark.

Very nice low profile microwave. Easy to use. Very quiet. Nice features. Plenty of room inside for a low profile style microwave hood combination. I like the no fingerprint surface on the front of microwave. Strong 4 speed ventilation fan circulates cooking steam and odors from stove located below microwave. Under hood light shows plenty of light over cooking stove. Definitely would buy again.

We love our new over the range microwave. It gives our new kitchen upgrade a polished look. It also works real well and was easy to get use to using it.

The only one that fits in the hood, The microwave is super quiet and good at heating. Hood is amazing if you don’t have vents as the carbon filter takes all the smell away. It’s noisy but less than my old hood, at low it’s very quiet. The led light could be improved

Love this micro with the low profile, allows for larger cabinet above. Only draw back is due to color in that the black is a tough clean… probably tougher to wipe clean than the stainless model.

Enjoy the product. Love the design. Quiet, space saving, easy to clean.

Solidly designed, outstanding performance and it looks great above our cooktop. This microwave exceeds ALL of our expectations. It's modern in terms of features, installed with ease, is super quiet and has all the functions we require. Kudos to the Whirlpool engineers for executing such a phenomenal product. The black stainless is a very close match to our GE dishwasher and built-in oven and our Samsung refrigerator. This is a excellent product. Highly recommended if you need a hood/microwave combination that is quality throughout and available at a good price. Don't let the compact size fool you.

Replaced my standard size over the oven microwave with the Whirlpool. Easy to install as the template for marking the holes is actually the mounting bracket itself which is metal. No measuring or working with a paper template. The micro wave is great, 4 fan speeds and the low one is not that loud. I typically do not used the fan as I have a built in in-line fan in my duct work. The oven controls are simple and when the timer goes off it is not that loud, but noticeable. You can set the level. The only consideration for not getting the micro wave is I have mine mounted to the cabinet which is high and at 5' 9" i can just see the food I put in the microwave to heat. Any higher or a shorter person would not see the food as it is heating. Contrarily to another reviewer, the light on the bottom of the microwave lights up my entire cook top, not the back wall as the reviewer describe with a picture. So this is a great microwave if you want a low profile one. No cons for me. I have used the microwave for about 2 months, so far so good. I like having the controls in the inside of the door where it is not noticeable.

This microwave takes almost twice as long as our old larger microwave to heat items. I used to heat a cup of coffee or tea in 60 seconds, with this new smaller microwave, it takes 120 seconds. We were not aware the power of this unit would be so different. But we love all the options and the fact that it fits over our stove and not on the counter.

This microwave hood combinations is very sleek, and saves an incredible amount of space above the stove. There are 2 vents on each side of the hood, and they are reusable! Easy to remove and clean. No need to purchase filters!

It’s great for freeing up counter space without compromising over-the-range space for larger pots. It’s looks great in our kitchen with our other stainless steel appliances and the hidden buttons make for a sleeker design. My only complaint is that you have to cycle through all four fan speeds to turn off the fan.

After 3 months I can say (happily) this unit works extremely well for our needs (although we haven't tried to cook a whole, already dead- bird in there yet). Looks sleek and modern. reduce space usage so you don't need a McMansion size kitchen to fit it in. Cleans up easily enough that throwing a greasy, heart sludge- cow carcass burger without a cover for spatter does not slow us down from use. Hope this helps...

Works well for what we needed it too, We still haven't had an issue finding anything (that WE microwave) to fit. Its size is perfect for older homes that have a hood and want to get rid of it.
