I really appreciate the build quality in the Whirlpool microwave and the sleek look of the stainless steel. I have always appreciate the quality of Whirlpool appliances and the microwave does not disappoint. Plenty of options for cooking, defrosting and more.

This microwave is great for the price. Took two people about 2 hours to remove the existing fan and install the microwave. First used their template but it was not matching holes well. It’s good looking, works well. Venting fan is pretty quiet. Light could be brighter.

The unit is easy to use even without reading the manual. It's big enough for 13x9 casserole pans without obstructing use of the stove. I have no complaints regarding performance or operation. So 5 stars for it.
Installation instructions were a little confusing but I found a YouTube video that got me through it. Don't throw away the packaging, it forms the template for the mounting plate. If I could rate the instructions separately I would give 3 stars.

Simple, easy to operate, cooks evenly, and easy to clean. It is basic, which is all I need. It you are a serious microwave user, you may want to search for something with more features.

Great microwave looks wise and functionality also great size. Removed 1 star because we happened to get a lemon that blew a capacitor or something. So we'll see how the return process is..

Clean look, stainless steel fits right in with other appliances. The interior seems easy to keep clean. Controls are intuitive and easy to use. Not fond of the blue led info screen, It’s a bit hard to read, especially the clock from a distance.

Since moving to our current home, we have had a succession of Microwave ovens. Though they've been different brands, they've all seemed to fail after a while.
This is our fourth one, and by far the best. Though reasonably priced, it has good functionality and reliability. We've had it for a while now, and it's still going strong. By far, its best feature is the interior, which somehow manages to burn off most spatters. It just never looks dirty inside, no matter how infrequently it is cleaned. The turntable dish is a good size to pop in the dishwasher.
My only quibble is with a couple of exterior design choices:
--In low light (like early in the morning when I don't wish to disturb others by turning on all the lights, or if I forget my reading glasses when I go to the kitchen), it's difficult to make out the characters on the control panel, which can be hard to distinguish. Would love to see the designers give more consideration to Universal Design principals and make these a bit easier for older users to read in sub-optimal conditions.
--On the other hand, the Whirlpool logo seems overly large; a more understated approach to branding would be appreciated.

So far, so good. My main complaint for over-the-stove microwaves is that they all seem to have different measurements, which means I have several sets of holes drilled into my wall for support, and each new microwave is a new set. I've had Whirlpool -> Samsung -> now this Whirlpool microwave. The Samsung one was free when we replaced the other appliances, and that one was a dud-- the moisture sensor was the first thing to go, and then the cheap door mechanism broke (I fixed that with some metal jewelry glue) so the door wouldn't shut, and then it would shut off after a few minutes of usage. Anyway, this Whirlpool model is better, so far, because the floor of it is lower, allowing family members to more easily see into it without stools or blind reaching. It works as expected, so far. My favorite part is that if you long press "2" until it beeps, it disables ALL keypad beeps and "done" signals. I don't like waking people up when making late night or early morning snacks!

got this for my mother for a Christmas gift. I installed it myself and it was straight forward, had no issues with instillation. Only issue is the little plastic wheels for the turntable. Had a bit of salt get into them and it made a horrific screeching noise. Popped the wheels off and ran them under the faucet, popped them back on all fixed.

I had been getting by with whatever i could find at the thrift store until they finally broke. I had hesitated getting an over range model for frat it would obscure my ability to see what I'm cooking on the range top. Well I finally installed this, and I feel like a billionaire. Hey its not the fanciest, but im happy because I got it on sale, and I was able to install it myself. The only thing all over range microwaves seem to be missing is crush blocks to go in the space between the top of the machine and the underside of the cabinet. I watched a couple youtube videos including about installing an electrical outlet, and I feel like a pro. Well, maybe not a real pro, but maybe a pro amateur?
