Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love the sleek look of the low profile stainless steel microwave. Haven’t had any issues and cooking strength is perfect. Many options

The Whirlpool - 1.1 Cu. Ft. Low Profile Over-the-Range Microwave Hood Combination is a really great Microwave, a little pricy but is packed with extras. The shorter size was perfect for my space.

This microwave is awesome! Love that the numbers are hidden, just gives a sleek look and it’s not bulky. Fits everything in it that you could think of.

Sleek and spacious. Easy to use. Template was right on. Only problem was trying to actually mount the microwave. Was heavy

We love our new low profile microwave. It's so nice to have it off the counter top!!! Works well! Looks great with our new Whirlpool range.

Love it! I love the low profile style it brings. We love the light and the fan helps so much with our gas stove. 11/10 would recommend

Works great. Heats quickly and easy to use. Wish the door did not have to be opened to use the timer.

My husband and I bought this over the stove microwave/vent a hood as a gift for our daughter and son in law. They are pleased with the size of it.

Great product. Love it! Perfect size for above the range!

So far so good. Been working very nicely! Thanks!!!!!!!

We love this microwave. It small and slim and gives a different feel to the kitchen. Does stick out past cabinets a little but worth it.

The install was easy. Works great and saves a ton of room compared to a regular sized microwave.

Purchased this to replace a 12 year old Whirlpool combination microwave-convection oven over our range. Went with this model to open up the space above the range which it does nicely, and because it has powerful ventilation fans. We do a lot of Asian cooking - stir fry, etc. so strong ventilation fans to our outside vent is an important feature. While this model certainly works OK as a microwave and a vent, I do have some cons to report: It's microwave heating is not as good our previous unit (also a Whirlpool but much larger size). Heats up liquids and mixed plates of food OK (and quickly) but struggles to heat up a piece of (previously cooked) frozen pizza evenly. Our old unit did a great job of melting and even browning/crisping cheese on top of pasta bowls, chili, etc, this oven struggles to even melt the cheese while the liquid below bubbles furiously. Maybe our old unit was an anomaly but I really miss how it was able to cook cheese on top of dishes. While the vent fans are indeed strong in this unit, the routing of the exhaust through the unit and to the top external outlet is not very good - there are plenty of cracks and corners where the vented air escapes back into the room (pretty strongly), as others have reported. This could definitely be improved in the design - the whole point of this model is to be/act more like a good vent hood and we don't want the smoky/oily exhaust air to be blowing back into the room. I wouldn't say it is terrible - it does a good job venting, but this is an annoying little detail to experience after having purchased it for it's (marketed) venting prowess. There are just a few simple control touch-buttons on the exterior, the numeric entry pad is exposed only when the door is open. I was worried about this initially but find that it's not a problem and I'm happy with the controls design. Others have reported the "I'm done" sound is too quiet on this unit - I actually like that it doesn't blare out so loudly - I don't need my appliances screaming at me. The vent fans on our old unit screamed like jet engines, the fans on this unit have a much less annoying sound/tone which we enjoy. The carousel design is so-so, the 3-wheel spinner device under the carousel plate can easily move out of its tracks leaving the carousel spinning in a tilted precarious manner. A cup of water off-center on the carousel can sometimes cause this to happen. The design could be improved with a slightly larger diameter spinner device and/or one with 4 wheels. All in all we are reasonably satisfied with this microwave but feel it is not quite as top-of-the-line as the purchase price suggests, and hope that Whirlpool can improve some of the design deficiencies in future versions.

excellent microwave great design goes well with other stainless steel appliance sleek design takes up less space

Very pleased with this microwave. It gives me the extra space needed. I do miss having the auto touch timed buttons but that is minor compared to the clearance I now have between the stove top and microwave.

Awesome easy to install, looks clean and sharp looking very easy to us.

Great fit replacing the old hood. Fan is much quieter and 4 speeds. Installation instructions are a little cryptic but you can figure it out.

Arrived on-time and the installation was a breeze. Watch the installation video from the oem for clarification purposes. I installed it myself so it couldn't be that hard.

This microwave is wonderful holy smokes, I like it

It's narrow in height, but big enough to do what you need it to do. The narrowness gives you plenty of room between your stove and the bottom of the microwave.
