I am very happy with my purchase. I installed it myself. The air blower was very easy to modify for ventilating upward. My last whirlpool was purchased in 2009. I am very happy with this current update.

Although this microwave is not as nice as the last Whirlpool flush I owned but then had door issues so I had to replace. I decided to give Whirlpool one last chance and so I purchased this one. Set up was easy as it fit perfectly from my old one. I have had this microwave for about a month now with no issues. Very simple and easy to use. Cooks food great and has the 30 second button that I use often. Happy with this microwave.

I purchased this to replace a Whirlpool 1.9 Cu. Ft. which stopped working just shy of its 5th year. The cost to repair was ridiculous so we opted to buy a new one but not the more expensive 1.9 model again. If they are designed to only work a few years then we were willing to give up the additional features. It does its job but it is truly a very basic model. So much for modern day appliances. They simply don't last like they used to.

Microwave ultimately works adequately. It took 3 delivery attempts to get one undamaged. It was for a rental and it took months. The delivery crew was terrific, they also installed the final one that was undamaged. It replaced a similar 10 yo whirlpool unit but it required new cabinet holes drilled, and a new wall bracket (included). The installation was tidy, they cleaned up completely, and removed all packing plus the old unit. This micro is about half the weight of the old one. Half the time I have appliances delivered, there is some type of concealed damage, and Best Buy has been competent making things right.

The new microwave works really good and I am very satisfied with the heating. The only thing I could say that I don't like about it is the door mechanism to closing and opening is stiff. You cannot close it softly or quietly. Otherwise, I am happy with the product.

For years, I've dreaded the piercing shriek of my microwave's completion beep. It was enough to wake the dead, let alone announce dinner. So, when I started looking for a replacement, a "mute" function was at the top of my list. Enter this microwave. Not only does it offer the blissful silence I crave, but it also boasts impressive build quality.
Let's start with the aesthetics. This isn't your flimsy, plastic-clad microwave. It features a sleek, stainless steel exterior that looks and feels premium. The door closes with a satisfyingly solid thunk, and the buttons are responsive and well-placed. It definitely feels like a substantial appliance built to last.
Beyond its good looks, this microwave performs admirably. Cooking is even and consistent, and the various power settings offer great control. Reheating leftovers is a breeze, and it even tackles frozen meals with surprising efficiency. I've used it for everything from popping popcorn to heating up delicate sauces, and it's handled each task with ease.
But the real game-changer? The mute function. A simple press of a button silences the obnoxious beeping, replacing it with sweet, sweet silence. This feature alone has made me fall in love with this microwave. I can now heat up late-night snacks without fear of disturbing the entire household.
Pros:
* Excellent Build Quality: Feels sturdy and well-made.
* Effective Cooking: Consistent and even heating.
* Blissful Silence: Mute function eliminates the loud beeping.
* Sleek Design: Looks great in any kitchen.
* Intuitive Controls: Easy to use and understand.
Cons:
* None so far.
Overall:
This microwave is a fantastic microwave that delivers on both performance and convenience. The solid build quality, combined with the incredibly useful mute function, makes it worth every penny. If you're tired of your microwave announcing its every move to the neighborhood, I highly recommend giving this one a try. It’s a quiet revolution in my kitchen!

I love Bestbuy for helping and directing its Customer in a gentle professional way. I recently bought Over the Counter Microwave Oven and the installers were technically oriented and installed and explained about the product. I am so happy to buy my products from Bestbuy. Thank you

This is a beautiful stylish addition to our kitchen. The 1000 watts heats quickly and the presets allows for an easy way to start 1, 2 or 3 mins at the press of a button. It also has the +30 second option among several other options that make this microwave a very nice upgrade.

The microwave was easy to install, heats well, looks great and is much quieter than my previous one from a different brand. I love it so far and I'm happy with the purchase

really like the black and stainless appearance and found that it functions very well once you get used to the controls that are different from our 15 year old Samsung. Also really noticed that the power is stronger from our older one. Maybe microwaves lose some power as the get old...

A little dark inside. The bulb is not very bright. The darker interior may have something to do with this. Other then that its great. Last one worked for abut 11 years, so I got another.

Love this microwave..I was not in the market to purchase a new microwave but mines after 10 years stop work at it best. My sister has this microwave and spoke highly of it. She put it in my cart and I purchased it. Best option and decision..

Microwave - OK, Installation instructions - not OK

Microwave works fine. The installation instructions fell short. The template was printed on the box, but it was very confusing about how to orient the template.
After the proper orientation was obtained, the two mounting holes didn't line up.
Installation is a two person job and time consuming to figure out where to drill the holes.
My previous Whirlpool microwave died, so I hoped that the mounting brackets would be the same, but no, they are completely different.
After the aggravation of the install, the microwave works ok.
The only suggestion that I would have is that it would be nice to have a lighted keypad because it hard to see in a low light environment.
