This goes beautifully in the kitchen over the stove. A definite must have

Love this microwave is the perfect size for my compact kitchen. User friendly

Excellent this microwave is perfect in size for the small area in my kitchen.

Very nice. Only wish the controls were backlit and maybe more power.

Love the sleek low profile. Makes my kitchen seem larger.

For small spaces this is a prefect microwave , comes with softener power levels , ability to stop turntable when needed for large items and vent to outdoor or circular venting option.

Really good easy to use many extras would buy again.

Fits snugly in an older home Didn’t need to remove a cabinet

What a great microwave for small spaces and above gas stoves!

It hasn’t failed us yet. We’ve cooked a lot of food in it since we got it.

It looks nice in the very small kitchen HOWEVER before I even used it I had to have Whirlpool repair to service because the mounting bracket (very flimsy & poor design) broke upon installation. Even the repair man agreed. So wound up paying full price since purchased on sale but the warranty does not cover anything that occurs during installation. So far so good has only been up a week. It is has exhaust and light and I have more counter space now that I have it above the range.

great microwave, pickup time was right on time frame

Love it. It is the perfect size for my kitchen. Not too bulky. All the features I need.

Amazing buy fits beautifully has good suction with fan

I was most interested in compact size. Just as I had hoped. Accessing controls inside door took a little getting used to.

I bought this microwave because it fit a couple of needs: a) It could be vented outside, and our hood at the time was a ‘blow back in the face’ variety. b) it replaced a psychotic countertop LG microwave (a different review) in a form factor that freed counter space without infringing over range space beyond aforementioned crappy hood. This microwave took awhile to install, because I had to cut various holes in the siding & cabinets, configure ports, ensure good anchoring, etc. FYI- If you have a stud anywhere near the center of your alcove, you have to go up through the upper cabinet and offset the outlet- no options on direct exhausting. Once installed, the unit functions flawlessly as a microwave once you’ve gotten used to the interior keypad. My main beef is that, after all that venting work, it moves very little air relative to the noise it makes. You’ll have to turn up the TV 2-3 notches to overcome all industrious sounding movement of air, but when you hold your hand up to the intakes (with Carbon filters removed even), you sense a movement of air but not a direction. Generate some smoke outta the oven and you’ll see that a portion of it lazily heads out the hood, while the rest billows into the kitchen to be removed on the micro’s own sweet schedule. I recommend this appliance as a unique space-saving microwave form factor. As a hood, I’d look elsewhere.

Been 2 days but love the look and works well in our situation

I fell in love with the low profile microwave as soon as I saw it. I saw 2 versions which looked similar at Best Buy, I opted fo this one since it had a couple other items the other did not (steam option, not able to see finger prints, interior has been made with an easier to clean coating). The light that shines on the top of the stove is white (LED) and as a 50 something with older eyes, it makes it so easy to see. It took a while to get used to the unit jutting out further from the cupboards, than the our older microwave oven, but we quickly adjusted to it, but others may want to measure your space to see if that makes a difference. 2 days after install, the button to push to open the door suddenly stopped working. I noticed another thread on this unit in Best Buy that someone else had that same problem and they were told to contact Whirlpool. Yes you can still open the door by pulling it open but the button to open was a nice touch especially if you have something in your hands to place in the oven! It was so much easier to push a button than to pull open the door. Yes! It's trivial, but I expected it to work a few years before it stopped working! I paid a lot of money for this microwave ( $449) and had to wait almost a month to have it shipped to me (purchased on 9/11, but not received til 10/11). Hopefully I will not end up with buyers regret!? Really too soon to know if I would truly recommend to a friend.....

Really needed an over the top microwave and this one is amazing.

Love this! Was worried about the size, glad that I purchased it!
