What customers are saying

This appliance is a highly functional and space-saving microwave with a sleek, modern design. Customers praise its powerful yet quiet fan and vent system, intuitive controls, and ample interior capacity. The microwave efficiently reheats and cooks food, and the low profile allows for more clearance above the stovetop. While a few minor issues were noted, such as a noisy fan on the highest setting and dimmer interior lighting, the vast majority of reviewers are extremely satisfied with this product.

    Latest, Greatest, Best Ever!!

    Reviewed by - 9 juin 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was tired of the big bulky looking microwaves above my stove! I am 65 and have had many! This one is sleek and looks amazing. It works and cooks better than any I have had! I like the buttons are inside behind the door! Quick guide on inside of door! Clock show and cook minutes in white! Fan has 2 speeds which are perfect! The light is awesome. It can be hooked to outside vent or recirculating. This microwave was worth spending the extra $ on! You get what you pay! Don’t hesitate it’s a great product .

    Do NOT Recommend- Splits and Cracks in the Door

    Reviewed by - 20 janvier 2026

    We purchased this microwave just about 3 years ago and within the first year it began to split/crack. I am absolutely gutted this is happening as this is an expensive microwave and we were so excited as it was a low profile microwave that fit the space perfectly. The microwave keeps continuing to split and crack and chunks of plastic have come off. The microwave is kept in perfect condition, always cleaned but the quality is just not there… really really upset I have to say. We haven’t damaged the microwave in anyway so I don’t understand why it splits and cracks literally all over.. also I’ve tried to reach out to customer service via social media and their online chat and cannot speak to an actual person. I go through the automated questions and then just says it can’t assist me. Definitely do NOT recommend.

    Modern look

    Reviewed by - 6 mars 2025

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a unit that makes your kitchen look like it is from the future With the motorized door opener , the suction is great at more than 24” away, the external light is halogen and weak, the grease filters are inadequate, since the filtering material will let most of the grease go through

    Small height is good, quiet

    Reviewed by - 1 juin 2025

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The door hangs down, it’s not straight, but is loose enough that I can manually push it up.The left side panel is not flush like it should be, wider on top than on the bottom and very apparent. I have pictures of this if you can direct me how to send them, it is not allowing me to do it below

    Creating counter space

    Reviewed by - 29 mars 2023

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a little over a month ago and I am so happy I did, I have reclaimed counter space, 3 stage stovetop lighting & a 3 stage powerful hood fan. I love the hidden menu & keypad panel. It is a touch pad so fingerprints will show. Careful wiping/cleaning it though as with a touch pad, the door will open, the light will turn on & the fan will blast at high speed, but the look of it & all the pros outweigh all that. Sorry, digital numbers have never showed up correctly in photos.

    Give it a try

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - 15 février 2021

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Compact, sleek design. Quite pricy but it does provide a lot of extra space between bottom of microwave and stove. Where it saves space on the bottom, it makes up for it in width. I wasn’t expecting it to stick out past my cabinets but now that I’ve gotten accustom to it, I actually like it. It complements my range nicely, and I like how the light provides added coverage to top of stove.

    Fist Time Whirlpool

    Reviewed by - 15 octobre 2024

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this last month and so far very happy. We use the open button open the door hopefully the mechanism will last. This is my first Whirlpool appliance I ever purchased so I’m hoping I have it for a long time. My last microwave was a Shark and it lasted me 36 years.

    Slim profile

    Reviewed by - 24 février 2026

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far we are really happy with the low profile microwave. We have low ceilings and our previous one was to close to the cook top and the new way gives alot more space. The inside is surprisingly bigger than it looks from the outside. I'd say we only lost maybe an inch. So happy I found this one. It does sound different running than our old microwave but it was pretty old. The chime is pleasing but it would be nice to be able to adjust the volume a bit. I have slight hearing loss and I have a hard time hearing it when it dings but I can get past that down fall because I love everything else about it. Easy install after removing the old one.

    Great innovative design!

    Reviewed by - 23 août 2025

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my microwave as it has a push button to open which is a nice feature plus all the numbers and controls are on the inside so it’s a learning curve to punch in the timings then close. The fan and light controls are on the left side so set off by themselves. I’ve only had it a week but it’s quiet and at just the right level since it’s so compact. Yesterday I used it for popcorn using the popcorn button and it came out perfect. This replaced a relic counter microwave that was here when I bought my condo and I couldn’t be more happy with this purchase!
