Whirlpool (WHLWMC10007AB) 0.7 cu ft. 700W Microwave Reviews

This works just as I expected. Warms the food I put in it. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

This microwave is best suited for a college dorm or for your office for casual use. I haven't found it to be great for cooking anything other than popcorn, and it takes several attempts to reheat food to get it hot. That said, if you are on a budget and have limited space, this is doable. I am making it work for me. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

This microwave mounts under the cabinet, which frees ups valuable counter space. It's the perfect size for heating a few cups of water, making a batch of oatmeal or rice, reheating a dinner plate, etc. If you want a microwave for cooking large dishes, this won't be for you. However, if you want a microwave for simple and basic usage - IT'S PERFECT!!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I saw the bad reviews but my daughter wanted it for her dorm room and it would match her whirlpool mini fridge. We received the microwave and once we plugged it in noticed that the inside light wouldn't go off. then when we tried to use it nothing happened. The inside plate did not turn there was nothing. It didn't work so I took it back to the store and bought a cheaper one that worked as soon as we took it out the box

There are not many under-the-cabinet microwave ovens available. We were happy to find this one. So easy to attach. And, so easy to work. The only thing that I wish would be different is that the start button be red so it would be easy to find and touch. But after using it for a month, finding the start button is becoming natural.

We needed to replace our prior microwave with one capable of mounting under a cabinet since we have a small kitchen with limited counter space. This narrowed the field to 2 models, the Whirlpool 0.7 Countertop being one (with no user reviews available at the time) and the other, another manufacturer's model with terrible user reviews. I hoped for the best and ordered the Whirlpool. It IS compact though it was much more of a challenge to mount than our previous larger, mountable unit had been.On to performance! Our primary use of a microwave is for heating or defrosting things and, occasionally, to bake potatoes or pop popcorn - very basic stuff. The Whirlpool takes almost a third longer to heat food and liquids than our previous model, groaning the whole time the glass plate turns. The plate is also prone to coming off its rollers if dishes placed on it aren't exactly in the middle. The Defrost feature only works if you know the weight of frozen items (and if they are a pound or more). Otherwise, you have to use 30% cooking power which seems to take almost double the time to defrost than our previous unit had taken. On the plus side, the unit is fairly easy to use (no advanced features!), easy to clean and has a good alert that sounds every few minutes so there's no forgetting something in it.Overall, this is a very BASIC unit which is understandable considering its low cost but I had really hoped it would perform better. Maybe Whirlpool and other microwave manufacturers should consider designing compact high-performance units for those of us with very small kitchens. I would gladly pay 2 or 3 times as much for it!!
