Just please find another microwave. They wouldn’t replace it when it started sparking because of the wire rack. The handle as well as the bottom of the microwave get INCREDIBLY hot when cooking on the stove. Also, when we have power surges(because of weather or just because heck we live in Texas) the digital screen ALWAYS goes out & doesn’t come back on until we unplug then replug. I’m giving it 2 stars simply because it heats whatever needs to be heated.

Introduction
The Whirlpool 1.9 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave with Sensor Cooking promises advanced cooking technology, ample capacity, and a sleek design. For prosumers who seek efficient kitchen appliances that offer both performance and value, here’s an in-depth review of this microwave based on my experience.
Design and Build Quality
This Whirlpool microwave features a modern, stainless steel exterior that complements most kitchen decors. Its over-the-range design helps save counter space, and it comes with an inbuilt range hood with multiple fan speeds, adding functionality.
The control panel is straightforward and easy to use, with a combination of touch controls and physical buttons. The interior is spacious, accommodating large dishes and cookware, and features a sturdy turntable that ensures even cooking.
Cooking Performance
The microwave’s 1.9 cu. ft. capacity is ample for most household needs, from reheating leftovers to cooking full meals. With 1,000 watts of power, it delivers efficient and quick cooking performance.
The standout feature is its sensor cooking technology, which adjusts cooking times and power levels automatically by sensing the humidity levels inside the microwave. This results in perfectly cooked or reheated food without the guesswork. The microwave also includes presets for common foods like popcorn, potatoes, and vegetables, simplifying the cooking process.
Ventilation System
The integrated range hood features a powerful ventilation system that effectively removes smoke, steam, and odors from your kitchen. With multiple fan speeds, you can adjust the ventilation according to your cooking needs. The microwave also includes an adjustable charcoal filter that helps improve air quality by trapping grease and odors.
Ease of Cleaning
The stainless steel exterior and interior make cleaning straightforward. The microwave’s interior is designed to resist stains and splatters, and the turntable can be easily removed for cleaning. The exterior can be wiped down with a damp cloth to maintain its sleek appearance.
Installation and Setup
Installation is relatively simple for those with some DIY experience, though professional installation is available and recommended for optimal results. The microwave comes with a mounting template and clear instructions to guide you through the process. Once installed, the microwave feels secure and stable.
Additional Features
• Multi-Stage Cooking: This feature allows you to program the microwave to automatically switch from defrost to cooking modes, ensuring thorough and evenly cooked food.
• Steam Cooking: The microwave comes with a steam cook option, which is great for healthy cooking and preserving the nutrients in your food.
• Add 30 Seconds Button: A handy feature that lets you quickly add 30 seconds to the cooking time without stopping the microwave.
• LED Lighting: The bright LED cooktop lighting illuminates your cooking surface, making it easier to see what you’re cooking.
Noise Level
The microwave operates relatively quietly, even when the ventilation fan is running at its highest speed. This is a significant advantage in open-concept kitchens where noise can be a concern.
Price and Value
Considering its advanced features, spacious capacity, and the reliability associated with the Whirlpool brand, this microwave offers excellent value for money. It provides a perfect balance of performance, convenience, and style at a reasonable price point, making it a smart investment for any kitchen.
Conclusion
The Whirlpool 1.9 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave with Sensor Cooking is an outstanding kitchen appliance that combines style, functionality, and advanced cooking technology. Its powerful performance, user-friendly features, and easy maintenance make it an ideal choice for prosumers seeking a high-quality microwave that can handle a variety of cooking tasks efficiently. Whether you’re a busy professional, a family cook, or someone who enjoys culinary experimentation, this microwave is worth considering.

Our old GE over-the-range microwave bit the dust after only 6 years. Decided to go with Whirlpool based on good experience with their appliances in the past. Wow, this product blows away our old microwave. The 2.1 cu inches is HUGE. I could probably fit an entire turkey in this thing. It has a lot of features which I am still trying to learn. Price was good too, it was on sale. The stainless steel model looks very sharp in our kitchen. I would highly recommend this model over any other smaller models, they are pretty close to the same measurements so why not.

Replaced a very old whirlpool microwave. It definately lasted through the years. This new one is nice. The coating on the inside is much easier to clean. This one has a light inside which I like. It is 1000 watts instead of 1100 so I definitely notice a little difference there regarding cooking times. I miss the easy function of pressing 1 thru 5 for the quick press times. Door is finger print resistant, but is a bit louder when shutting the door. The sound of the microwave itself is quiet when running..
I haven't had this one long, but so far, it works great.

I found this product to be absolutely amazing! From the moment I started using it, I was impressed by its quality and performance. It exceeded my expectations in every way.
What stood out the most was how easy it was to use and how well it delivered on what it promised. Whether it was the design, functionality, or overall experience, everything felt thoughtfully crafted and reliable.
I would definitely recommend this product to anyone considering it. It’s been a positive addition to my daily life, and I’m very satisfied with my purchase.

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.

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.

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.

I am very pleased with the microwave I chose. It’s absolutely perfect for my family. Very nice appliance made by whirlpool. The customer service at the local Best Buy in Davenport. Iowa was top notch from the man behind the customer service counter to the man that brought our microwave out to our vehicle. Thank you.

Microwave worked fine but installation incorrect

This OTR microwave works fine but is not as powerful as my previous Samsung 1000 watt OTR, The installation was subpar. I asked the installer to vent the microwave upward (like the old one he removed) and then I would connect the vent pipes to the unit. Instead he installed it for internal venting and did not leave me the damper that came with the unit. We checked the microwave operations but I did not climb up to see if the vent damper was installed. Now, I tried to call Geek Squad and could not find anyone who can do anything for me other than schedule a tech to come out and look at it. Of course, he will then have to order the damper and there be another visit. Pretty frustrating.
