So many useful features. I particularly appreciate the ability to completely silence all beeps and buzzers as well as have the clock light turn off after five minutes of non-use. Nice energy saving feature. The only “one touch” timer option is 30 seconds. I do miss having the +10 and -10 seconds options. But this is minor. Controls are easy to learn, locate and use.

This microwave was a surprise gift about a month ago and it's definitely a nice upgrade from my old whirlpool microwave. Things I like best are the 30 second feature, gray stainless steel color and overall look of this microwave. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I bought this recently as my panel on my last one went out. I would have given a 5 except for that unknown for this one. Love all the preset features and reheats everything wonderfully including pizza without making crust chewy. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

This microwave so far is GREAT. Quiet and fast as well as huge inside (like the metallic finish inside of it). One of the nicest microwaves we ever purchased it!! Better than other brands. We had LG which is fair and GE which is BAD!!! Recommend it!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I bought and had professionally installed this over-the-range microwave in December 2019. It stopped heating food/drinks in late March 2020 and had it fixed (2 parts replaced) under warranty within 2 weeks. It stopped heating again last week (June 2020) and had it fixed (3 parts replaced) this week. I think this appliance is poorly designed. Whirlpool should have declared it a "lemon" and replaced it with a new one. I suspect the cost of the 2 maintenance repairs and replacement parts (5 total) exceeded the microwave's price. I fear this appliance may not last 2 years and I'll be on the hole for repairing it outside warranty (ends in 6 months). If that will happen, I'll definitely not buy Whirlpool appliances anymore. BTW, my previous over-the-range microwave lasted 22 years with no problems or repairs. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

We decided to install it ourselves and it was a little challenging, but it all went very well. The many features are just great! It is so easy to clean and operate. We would recommend this microwave to everyone! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

This microwave is awesome!! It's super quiet yet has enough power to heat the food quickly without overheating. And the vent fan has four speeds and does a great job! I am extremely happy with this product! Haven't had a chance to use the nonstick interior much yet, but I have a feeling it's going to be WAY easier to clean than the one I replaced!!
