Works like a microwave is supposed to it's Not very tall but but save's enough room under it. It so I can put a pressure canner on my stove. You can't put tall things inbut we do not cook meals in it

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

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.

I love that the keypad isn't visible unless you open the door

i thought I would like the shorter profile but it turns out that it sticks out farther than the traditional models making it harder to access the cabinets above. It is also harder to reach into and so not as easy to place the stuff to be heated without tipping the rotating plate off its base. Not a good choice for short people. You also have to open the door to set the timer. I prefer the control panel on the outside like traditional microwaves

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.

I'm giving 2 stars due to the defective exhaust fan, and an extremely poor install/replacement service. Once this replacement/install is resolved, I will probably never order or ask Best Buy to install another appliance again. I ordered this whirlpool low profile microwave over a week ago, and then picked it up at Best Buy. I later ordered a service to have Best Buy (Geek Squad) install the microwave. The installer (Abdul) identified the defective motor during installation, took a video to document it, but apparently never reported it to Best Buy. The next day, I spoke w/ Best Buy support on Chat, and was told a replacement would be scheduled for this week (Today). The delivery team came today, but then told me they could only replace (pick up and return) but not uninstall and install the new one. The delivery team told me they don't even install microwaves, and left w/ the new microwave. This is a real disappointment. I now have to wait for the delivery team to return the new microwave to the warehouse later today. And then, I can call back to schedule another attempt at replacing/installing the original defective microwave.

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.

Did good job installing. Looks great in my kitchen. Gives me more room between top of stove and bottom of microwave.

I love whirlpool! This microwave saves so much space

Except for a short wait for the product, the delivery, installation and take away were all top rate!

Love my microwave, my Best Buy sales person listened to my needs. What a space saver and so many great options with my Microwave.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Love the Microwave. Also came with a quick and clean and easy installation.

Works well as an above range vent and microwave. Only wish it wouldn't have a touchscreen button to open door.

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.

This microwave was definitely more than a standard due to the low profile/hood combination... but it has been totally worth it. Its interior height has not been a problem for typical use, it's quiet, and performs well. Only thing that I wish (although IDK if it's possible) is if the exhaust fan could be a bit quieter. Needless to say, it's solid. Would recommend.
