Rated 2 out of 5 by 3Rich3 from Nice features, but... Bought microwave three weeks ago.. The door has two prongs that latch and hold it close... It takes considerable effort to either open or close the door because of this design feature... Also, randomly, at about every 10 or 15 door closures, the time display disappears and is replaced by 3 zeros when closing the door.. This is very annoying as I have to reset the clock time after every occurance. It’s almost as if some wiring or an internal switch is loose and being jarred when the door shuts or something...As mentioned above, the door closure requires a lot of force because of the two locking prong design and this jars the unit quite a bit with every closure...

Rated 4 out of 5 by Usma07 from Door is really hard to open! We bought this microwave two months ago and use it daily. It heats great and does everything you would expect a microwave to do except the door does not open easily. I have literally dislocated my thumb trying to get the door to unlatch and open. If it weren’t for this I’d be completely satisfied with the microwave but I’m afraid I’m going to break a finger trying to open the door. In all fairness we have not contacted the manufacturer yet as I kept hoping that it would work it’s way loose but to date it hasn’t. Guess we will be making a call for help!

Rated 1 out of 5 by irked from Horrible We have lived in our house for 3 years and had the original microwave replaced once. We actually had the same problems (door wouldn't open/close, clock numbers first reverted to all "0s") but didn't want to go through the hassle of having the appliance people out again since it was basically working. But now it has moved on to losing parts of the numbers so you don't know how much time is entered or remaining. VERY AGGRAVATING. Tried to check on it today to go ahead and replace (they know it is junk so not worth fixing), but it has been discontinued. As others have mentioned, we have the trim kit so we need to somehow replace this with something that fits. I would love to buy a different brand but then you have to think about resale value on your home. Anyone who has dealt with this and has a suggestion, your help would be appreciated!

Rated 3 out of 5 by bryce5_04 from Quiet and works great - Minus electrical issues. We've had ours for 3-4 months now and it looks great and works great except when you open/close the door it resets the clock to 0:00 and you have to reset it all the time. I've noticed many others have complained about the same issue.. I'm hoping they release an update that can correct the issue? Otherwise it's really quiet and spacious and has a lot of power to heat up the food quickly.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Sklear from Good and Bad The microwave is large, powerful, and whisper quiet, but the door is difficult to open. Depressing the button to open the door required a lot of pressure and once depressed the door takes one to two seconds to open. I would have returned it to the store, but it was the only model with a frame kit that fit the custom opening.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Fran Bixby from All I bought this oven less than a month ago and the control panel is starting to peel off and scratches badly. You can feel the blistering of the plastic! I need a new plastic cover for the controls

Rated 3 out of 5 by Jimmy 84 from Good microwave but electronics on it aren’t good This is the second same make and model I’ve purchased due to a specially fitting space and trim kit. Microwave works well when operational, but the electronics seem to fail very fast thus making the microwave inoperable and needing to replace in only two years. I would not have bought the same model had I been able to find another microwave with the same dimensions. Works well but doesn’t last!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Burke04 from Replacement for old model Bought as a replacement for the microwave that came with the house. This one is very similar in style & features and fit in the wall space where the previous one had been. We were able to use the trim kit from the old one - not an exact fit but it worked and we are probably the only ones that would even notice it. The microwave works fine so far; nice and roomy but this one doesn't have the optional rack like the old one.

Rated 3 out of 5 by KR14 from When it works it’s good This microwave was part of a new home we purchased and included as part of a Whirlpool package provided by the builder. We’ve lives here 2 years and already replaced the refrigerator and keep having problems with the microwave. The latest issue is a blinking clock and a small light above the clock that flashes. We’ve tried resetting the clock. We’ve unplugged the microwave. It just keeps flashing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Snewt453 from Thank you Whirlpool I bought this to replace the GE model that failed just over a year of purchasing. Very pleased with the purchase and will not go back to GE ever. The service was very poor when it came to ordering a replacement. The model we ordered was discontinued and we didn’t know so they shipped the wrong model wrong color and then they tried to say we ordered wrong on our end. Whirlpool for life.
