Microwave Oven Shipped to Store for Pickup

Buying the Whirlpool microwave oven at Best Buy was easy and straightforward. Order online, pick up at the store, easy installation, and it works very well.

I have had this installed for a couple weeks now. It was a replacement for another Whirlpool Over-The-Range microwave. The upside is that it was that as far as mounting it went, it was the exact same as the 10-year-old model it replaced. All of the microwave functions are similar and the unit itself probably weighed half as much as the old one so getting it up and mounted was easier.
The downside is that this is a slightly lower grade model than the one it replaced because it does not have the connection bake function the previous one had. That should explain most of the weight difference between the two.
Thus far the microwave works well so I have no complaints. The install was easy and the microwave does everything it should in about the same timeframe as the unit it replaced.

the Whirlpool 1.7 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave is a must-have kitchen appliance for those who value both style and performance. Its spacious interior, powerful cooking capabilities, convenient presets, and elegant design make it an outstanding addition to any kitchen. The microwave's efficiency and user-friendly features have simplified meal preparation and made it an essential tool in my culinary endeavors. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a reliable, modern, and efficient over-the-range microwave.

Looks and works great! Love the express buttons for one touch heating and the ample room for heating a large dish. Delivery and install were within 4 days from purchase.

Attractive & Working Like a Champ-10 Months Later

We absolutely love this OTR Whirlpool Microwave. It's attractive with just the right amount of bells and whistles. The controls are easy to use; it's easy to clean. We've had it for 10 months and it has worked like a champ the entire time. (MUCH better than the GE it replaced--which kept blowing fuses in the door). Highly recommend.

We bought this microwave to replace a slightly older model that stopped working. The wall brackets were compatible so installation was a snap. It works great and has plenty of features without being confusing.

This Whirlpool microwave was the perfect size and easy to install myself. It matches all of our other Whirlpool appliances that I am gradually installing in our kitchen. My wife loves the easy to use programing and timer, and it is quieter then our old GE microwave.

We had been without a microwave for about 4yrs. by choice. And trust me the kids begged over and over to get one. It was convenient to buy a new one since we bought a bundle package from best buy. Great price, looks good and works great. Most of all the kids are happy.

Performs all basic microwave functions at a reasonable price. Easy to install and operate, and fits the microwave over-the-stove footprint nicely. Easy to install and clean.

When our old microwave kicked the bucket. This one was very affordable & easy installation instructions. Very big & can fit anything you're needing to warm up.

We replaced our old microwave with one with the same features because we were satisfied with it. The microwave has all the features that we need and use for the type of cooking we do.

Exact match for our old model that last ten years, fit right onto the existing bracket. Great option at a decent price.

A few things we have noticed so far that we like: the door opens and closes super smooth and easy, the light underneath is bright, it defrosts our meat without cooking the edges, heats up plates of food evenly, and it melts butter without splashing it all over the microwave lol! A few things to get used to would be: it takes much longer to defrost meat than our last microwave (sometimes 12-15+ min per pound) so plan on a little more prep time if working with frozen meat, the fan turns on every time we run the microwave so its a bit loud, and the directions didn't mention that the defrost/reheat/etc codes are printed inside the microwave door on a sticker (in case any of you were like us trying to figure out what it was asking for when using the pre set buttons) and it shows fingerprints badly but they wipe clean easily. We are happy with the purchase!
