    Rounding Up Bc Nice For The Price

    Pro: Straight forward controls; not ugly; inexpensive; easily installed; good capacity. Con: Very basic feature set; looking for a break room; fingerprint magnet; mine only seems to have one output intensity and regulates by timing power to the tube. We bought our Whirlpool for around $200 on sale; it replaced an LG unit that we purchased at the same price that lasted less than 3 years. (Wasteful) The Whirlpool had the same control panel as I have seen in inexpensive countertop units for years. There is a number pad with quick settings (1 for one minute, 2 for two minutes, etc) or a button you press for finer control of the time and power: you can set time to the second. Power settings simply run the emitter tube all the time or a fraction of the time - but always at full power. Just like 20 years ago. It works - sort of - but at this price more nuance may mean less dependability. Speaking of power, our prior unit was rated for the same output but seemed to heat about 10% faster than the Whirlpool - not a big deal in our case. Oh, and no temperature probe here but we never used probes on our LG. Our feeling is the size of the oven chamber is large enough for a medium sized turkey or ham based upon our pans. We use ours extractor in the recirculator configuration and it works well enough for us, though replacing air filters is a bit of a waste. It looks good in its setting and I don’t regret the choice - so far.

    I love the silent mode on the whirpool Microwave. It’s easy to clean and doesn’t get many finger smudges on them. All my appliances are Frigidaire but I may now buy whirlpool for everything I replace.

    Exact Replacement

    I was looking for an exact replacement of the our previous one (Builder Installed version) of which the door broke. I couldn't find the exact one, but this one is the closest match. That said the installation was super simple because it matched the previous ones and all I need to do is to unscrew the old one out and then put this one back there. I just wish there was more stainless steel on the door with Fingerprint resistant. But for the price I am very happy with this purchase.

    I purchased this to replace a Whirlpool 1.9 Cu. Ft. which stopped working just shy of its 5th year. The cost to repair was ridiculous so we opted to buy a new one but not the more expensive 1.9 model again. If they are designed to only work a few years then we were willing to give up the additional features. It does its job but it is truly a very basic model. So much for modern day appliances. They simply don't last like they used to.

    I am very happy with my purchase. I installed it myself. The air blower was very easy to modify for ventilating upward. My last whirlpool was purchased in 2009. I am very happy with this current update.

    Very nice microwave, the looks and functionality of this appliance is simply amazing. I really needed a replacement and found this on sale and quickly purchased it. I saved a lot and after installing it I was happy that I had a good experience with the product. It really compliments my kitchen appliances and really makes my kitchen more efficient.

    The new microwave works really good and I am very satisfied with the heating. The only thing I could say that I don't like about it is the door mechanism to closing and opening is stiff. You cannot close it softly or quietly. Otherwise, I am happy with the product.

    It is a bit larger than we needed. So far it works well and is intuitive to set. I hate the beep it makes. Was a fair price and available in store. I wish Best Buys would recycle our old broken one.

    For years, I've dreaded the piercing shriek of my microwave's completion beep. It was enough to wake the dead, let alone announce dinner. So, when I started looking for a replacement, a "mute" function was at the top of my list. Enter this microwave. Not only does it offer the blissful silence I crave, but it also boasts impressive build quality. Let's start with the aesthetics. This isn't your flimsy, plastic-clad microwave. It features a sleek, stainless steel exterior that looks and feels premium. The door closes with a satisfyingly solid thunk, and the buttons are responsive and well-placed. It definitely feels like a substantial appliance built to last. Beyond its good looks, this microwave performs admirably. Cooking is even and consistent, and the various power settings offer great control. Reheating leftovers is a breeze, and it even tackles frozen meals with surprising efficiency. I've used it for everything from popping popcorn to heating up delicate sauces, and it's handled each task with ease. But the real game-changer? The mute function. A simple press of a button silences the obnoxious beeping, replacing it with sweet, sweet silence. This feature alone has made me fall in love with this microwave. I can now heat up late-night snacks without fear of disturbing the entire household. Pros: * Excellent Build Quality: Feels sturdy and well-made. * Effective Cooking: Consistent and even heating. * Blissful Silence: Mute function eliminates the loud beeping. * Sleek Design: Looks great in any kitchen. * Intuitive Controls: Easy to use and understand. Cons: * None so far. Overall: This microwave is a fantastic microwave that delivers on both performance and convenience. The solid build quality, combined with the incredibly useful mute function, makes it worth every penny. If you're tired of your microwave announcing its every move to the neighborhood, I highly recommend giving this one a try. It’s a quiet revolution in my kitchen!

    Although this microwave is not as nice as the last Whirlpool flush I owned but then had door issues so I had to replace. I decided to give Whirlpool one last chance and so I purchased this one. Set up was easy as it fit perfectly from my old one. I have had this microwave for about a month now with no issues. Very simple and easy to use. Cooks food great and has the 30 second button that I use often. Happy with this microwave.
