Good little slim microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well, has 3 speed settings for the fan, the door opens automatically when you "touch" and not press the open button, but you can also manually open the door. The sensor cooking is limited, senses moisture of potatoes and not probable number, you have to manually enter the number when making baked potatoes.... Max 4 potatoes... Overall good buy

Awsome!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fit nice. Features worked as advertised. Smaller size has not diminished usefulness. Works much more safely higher above stove. Very pleased with our whirlpool microwave.

Great microwave I thought I was going to hate
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this microwave. No issues at all I read and was scared to get it at first because others commented that the dish doesn’t spin. I have had zero issues and take it off all the time to wash it. Just make sure you balance correctly when placing it back on. Had to get because of the size and I thought I would hate it. Fits everything and never had any issues. Looks good installed

Nice & sleek stainless steel microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This fits perfectly over my gas range oven. It looks nice and sleek. Quiet fans. It's important to have the Geek Squad professional installer to install and do all of the needed work which I'm glad I had; they removed old microwave, measured & installed it perfectly. A microwave is heavy so obviously there'll be 2 people needed to mount it.

Great Space Saver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave is such a space saver. It's low profile is perfect for over our stove top. And it still has plenty of room inside to warm up everything we need.

Great microwave and Lo Profile too
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the appearance of the Lo Profile. Not to difficult to install ( 2 people are better ). Operation of microwave is pretty quiet, the bell (beep) is very quiet. The fan moves more air than what I had.

Love it!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this low profile microwave. I bought a white one a couple of years ago and then when I got divorced and got my own place, I bought another one in stainless steel because I liked it so much. I gives you so much more room over the stove. I had to replace the tile in the spot where the big old microwave was, but it was worth it.

Great over the range
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So glad we finally found something that fits on our space. The cabinets are too low for a full size and out counter space is limited. This is perfect. I have been using it for over a year and have yet to heat anything that doesn’t fit. It sticks out a little more than a regular microwave, but no more than our range hood use to. Cooks evenly.

Good Product
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had this for 2 years now. No problems to speak of. It heats and runs as expected. Easy to keep clean and saves me counter space since its above the stove. I would definitely recommend.

Works as intended.
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Product functions as intended. Hood/ventilation function is better than expected. Door squeaks when opening. I'm a tall person and this low profile allows me to see the back of the cooktop without bending down. The larger sizes do not allow for this.

Looks nice BUT .....
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Normally I do not write reviews. I am so happy when someone does because, as a buyer, I find them very helpful. I bought this microwave because it was the only one the fit my space. It fits beautifully. The controls are very awkward. You must make your selection only when the door is open. The wire rack that supports the glass plate does not stay in place, forcing the plate to slip.

Compact Over-the-range microwave!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old microwave took a lot of space on my kitchen counter and this solved the issue. Love how compact it is and it doubles as a exhaust, which is awesome!

Perfect size and great quality.
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had it for 5 months now. Perfect. Fan is great. Easy to clean. My friends always compliment the sleek look. Excellent for reheating coffee and is bigger inside than appears.

Good Form Factor, Poor cfm
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

It is a wonderful and aesthetically pleasing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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 for low cabinets
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was looking for a microwave that would fit above my range and not hang too low. Also needed it to vent. I am so happy and grateful someone finally made a microwave with theses dimensions. It is wide enough for a full large plate and even though it is not very tall it fits a large Pyrex dish. The fan is great, cooks well and looks more sleek then a regular microwave. I absolutely love it.
