Whirlpool Replacment
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced an older 1.6 Cu. Ft. unit with this larger 2.2 Cu. Ft. unit 3 weeks ago. My older unit was built in above my oven and did the R&R myself in about an hour without any issue. New trim kit fit perfectly. Larger size is a great upgrade. Also, purchased unit on sale at a great price. So far new microwave is working great.

I would recommend this to a friend Good but last Microwave was better
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace an 89 year old Whirlpool under counter microwave installed by Builder. This unit works just fine but the features are just not as good as the old one. Examples: The button to open the door is not as easy to see and operate, and The under counter trim kit does not look as good as old one.
I would recommend this to a friendLike everything else these days, more expensive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Over the past three years, everything got super expensive. This is a "nothing-fancy" MW, still costs...

Terrible Whirlpool Warranty.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased a GE Profile unit to replace this unit. Why? At the 14 month mark, the digits on the Whirlpool unit began to go out and when I contact Whirlpool, they told me "tough, no can replace, it's out of their 12 month warranty period...". I then asked, can I buy the related circuit board and I could replace that myself. According to Whirlpool, the unit has been discontinued and "no, no replacement parts available." So my advice, buy the EXTENDED WARRANTY!!!

Love the size
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Installed above my wall oven, has a large interior and heats evenly
I would recommend this to a friend Good microwave
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave is fine. It fit into the hole we had for our previous microwave so that is why I got it. I am still getting used to the front panel set up and does not seem as intuitive as my last microwave. That is why I gave it a 4. Seems to work well. Price was good.

Recent purchase
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great quality. Efficient shipping. Fits perfectly. Was able to find this model after the previous one was discontinued.
I would recommend this to a friend Product is awesome, but troublesome on damage
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I Like the product. Only concern is, since it is a warranty product. No way fix if there is an issue with some parts.. We have to replace it entirely.

Average
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Average. Not so great. Doesn’t have much to offer in “sensor” cooking. Glass on inside door stays wet and fogged up. I’m guessing it will rust inside soon. Horrid purchase.

Good Basic Appliance
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Microwave has done all the basic things I want it to without problems. I've got to work through all the bells and whistles. That will take time. Too bad Best Buy doesn't have downloadable user manuals on your site. It would make the process so much easier.

Not Great For The Price
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The control pad looks cheaply made. Loud noise when closing the door. Other than that, the microwave works.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace the wall oven in a nice property that I manage.

Great look and large size
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Because this is a counter depth microwave it’s much larger than the over-the-range units. I love that it has the matching trim kit sold separately to place in the wall. This is excellent!

Very noisy and hard to open door
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought a Whirlpool because my last one lasted 17 years. The moment we turned it on we realized this was a mistake. It was so noisy that you would not be able to run it when anyone was sleeping. We returned it and purchased and LG. It turned out to be a much nicer microwave and was even a little less expensive. I don't know how it cooks, so I gave it two stars instead of one. Thank you Best Buy for allowing returns.
