Customers are saying
Customers regard the 2.2 Cu. Ft. Microwave with Sensor Cooking as having a perfect size for most kitchen counters and praise its heating capabilities and ease of installation.

The warranty also received negative feedback. While many appreciate its powerful heating and attractive appearance, potential buyers should carefully consider the reported issues before purchasing.

big waste of money
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.unit never worked properly as many reviews that I should have considered it was very hard to open the door you need to use 2 finger or you could hurt your finger using only one, it was too much trouble to unmount it to return it since it was wall mounted with the trim kit until finally stopped working after 13 months that the warranty expired so a total waste of money, no more Whirlpool appliances for me, do yourself a favor and stay away from this item.

LOUD! and worst door release button ever
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It definitely got everyone's attention when it started up. We thought something was wrong with it, but it heated the food. Next trick was to get the food out. You could press it 10-15 times with no luck. We eventually figured out that if you pressed in just the right spot, held the button in, and wedged your finger in crack at the top, you could open it relatively consistently. Other times it would surprise you and open first or second time without special effort. We couldn't take it after about a week and had to return it.

Works as expected, no frills
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We replaced a GE microwave with this one. It does the job it needs to do. One or two minor inconveniences compared to the GE we had - for example lack of one-touch quick start with the exception of the 30-second button. Not a huge deal, just surprised it wasn't a standard thing for a much newer product.

Not Gret At All...
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is not the best microwave at all... I purchased it because I needed a black stainless steel microwave to go with my kitchen set that was Whirlpool black stainless steel but if I could change it I really would get a better one. It doesn't have a reheat feature and in fact has very limited features compared to my previous one that was a Panasonic. I hope they make a better one soon so I can sell that one and upgrade to a better Whirlpool black stainless steel microwave.

Works good, heats up food fast, roomy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We replaced our previous version (which was about 3 years old) of this model with this one and it works fine. It fits in the same space above our oven with the same decorative trim around it. Our previous one was getting glitchy where it didn't always seem to work right. Hopefully, this one lasts longer. It seems to be a little louder than the last one.

Too low quality
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this from bb because my old one had a display fail (just after 2 years ) and my home warranty paid for the new one. New one came with damage on the door so I replaced the door with the old one but really it should've been flawless. If display fails that fast they should make it easier to replace. I guess it is not that easy if home warranty just pays for the entire unit.

Third Whirlpool in 12 years.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased to replace 2nd Whirlpool microwave. They typically last 3-5 years then you purchase a new one. Consider it a disposable product, and not worth the time or effort to repair.

Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed to replace a Microwave that had been installed in a cabinet so the size was critical. I found the perfect match. And except for a few of the controls looks and operates just like the old one. I'm very pleased over all with this microwave. There is just one annoying thing about it. The button that opens the door has a few quirks, but nothing major.

This Model doesn't last long
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great microwave, fits my kitchen. This is the third microwave I am changing to though, this model doesn't last long in the past. That's why I bought the best buy warranty. Only reason I am buying again is because it fits my space in the kitchen.

Love this microwave!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had recently moved into a house that had old GE stainless steel appliances. I had a space up above next to the fridge that was perfect size for this full microwave. Decided on getting all new stainless steel Whirlpool appliances. This microwave is great. Never had any issues. Plus looks really good!

Good Product
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was an excellent replacement for my previous 1.6 cu. Ft built in. No one carry’s black anymore. The only problem was the first order, the box arrived looking like it went through a war zone. Had to return it and reorder.

Big microwave oven.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This oven replaced an older still working GE because it was white and my wife wanted stainless steel look. This oven is big and it works well, with the optional trim kit it looks great built in into the kitchen cabinet.
