Best Bang for the Buck out there!
Bought this at Christmas time to replace a GE Conv/Micro that cost $1200. This is the slickest microwave you could imagine. Works great and heats faster than the old GE; that cost 5 times more. If you want a SS Microwave, to go over your stove, and dont want to break the bank, I couldnt say enough about this one. It works flawlessly, and performs with the best of them.
With that said, I was very disapointed with the limited manual that comes with it, and owned it for a month, before I realized that that 99% of the info, that I was looking for, is on a label INSIDE THE DOOR JAM ?????????????????? There is NO MENTION of that fact in the manual; And all the codes, and info, I was searching for is printed right there on the bottom of the door jam; IF you know where to look for it!! So in closing this is a run to buy it purchase; and you will not be disapointed in the unit in anyway . Read all the codes inside the doorjam on the bottom and life will be good for you !!!!
Excellent...
Great value, excellent performance. A bit difficult to install.
Our over the range microwave died suddenly in our new home. I was not the original purchase of this particular appliance, and it was over 10 years old.
So I began looking for product replacement. I found a Whirlpool model online that had some nice ratings, but when I went to my local big box store to purchase, they didn't have the exact Whirlpool model I had read about. What I found, was this model, which I assume is the newest version.
The microwave has a very nice finish. The door and front feel fairly sturdy.
Operation is simple. I tend to hate overly complex controls. I want power and simple controls. This microwave meets my needs in this regard. This microwave has lots of power.
Now the bad. The install. This is my second microwave install. My first being a retrofit of an over the range fan.
My first install, and noticing the hardware of my current broken microwave. The units are mounted by a rear wall bracket...
looks nice, seems to work well, but needs to be modified before installation
I just purchased this Whirlpool Stainless Steel Microwave a few weeks ago when it was on sale for Fathers day and today I installed it. So far it is works well and it looks really nice. So we will see how well it keeps up, compared to those counter microwaves that usually last for 10+ years. I will update my review after a few months of use.
BEFORE INSTALLING READ:
For those who are installing this microwave themself, make sure you remove the outer frame and modify the two bolts that bolt the microwave to the top of your cabinet. Whoever designed this microwave and decided to use clip on threaded nuts instead of welded nuts to hold the microwave in secure is a complete imbecile! After trying to install the microwave, one of the bolts pushed in the clip on nut and it took me a few minutes to figure out why it would not screw in properly. After I noticed that the nut was pushed in I removed the case and used JB weld to secure both of the nuts to the microwave...
