Door latch issues, light bulb fried. These issues have been noted here for over 2 years. Talked to customer service (nice lady, not her fault) but was told that Whirlpool will not replace or repair. The company has known about these issues and continued to sell their faulty product without correcting these problems.

We bought our Whirlpool microwave model UMC5225GZ-1 September 22, 2019. We immediately noticed the "sloppiness", "looseness" of the push button door opener. Almost half the time we attempt to open the door, the door open button it is so loose it moves all the way in to its limit and does not operate the latch and the door does not open. We must release it and try again, pushing it completely in and holding it there to get the door to open. We are very careful and gentle with the opener because it feels weak and ready to fail completely. This simple little part should not be this cheap. We "know" it will fail after the warranty expires and that the expense of having it fixed will not be justifiable.

Love this microwave - it gets the job done and doesn't break the bank - it can go with any other appliances too due to being unbranded

Came with our new house. Lightbulb went out and there is no way to change it without Tearing the microwave down. The paperwork doesn't even list a bLübeck size or how to! So when I finally got to the back of it, the ground wire looks toasted! It's 2 years old! I've had microwaves for close to a decade and never had the light go out! AND we've also experienced the door error everyone e is mentioning! Beyond mad. I'll have to replace it now with my own money.

Built in with the kit. Calibrated the power settings based on the fraction of the cycle time it is on. Energy output agrees with previous microwave. We use it several times a day using the cook-time and cook-power settings. Read the manual. I do not use it for the features. 30-second input by hitting start is quick and handy. Clock is intuitive to set.

This is my third microwave of this model! The first the door was hard to open and zeroed out when shut. The next one couldn't get the cook power to work, had several,people read instructions and try, nothing, this one is now canceling and zeroing out and giving a door reading, in other words it is working either! A horrible product and not up to Whirlpools usual standards. All of this since December! Now waiting for them to come on line!!
