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 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 1 out of 5 by tanb from Clock Keeps Resetting when Closing Door We originally got this microwave in 2016 installed by the builder. Every few days or weeks, when you close the door, the clock resets to 0:00 or the microwaves makes a long audible beep and doesn't stop until you unplug it. It's as if the internal wiring is not built to withstand the slight vibration from the door being closed. Mind you, the door is being closed normally, not slammed or anything. This is not an isolated issue. Other reviewers have noted the same problem. Whirlpool has replaced this microwave three times already, on 7/12/17, 1/12/18, and again today 6/5/18. For the most recent replacement, they decided to try the fingerprint-resistant stainless steel model instead of the stainless steel model (as if that would fix the issue). Lo and behold, the clock reset to 0:00 after closing the door AGAIN today, just a few hours after the installers were here. (See photo). So now I have a microwave that is still defective, and it doesn't match the regular stainless steel wall oven right under it.

Rated 1 out of 5 by No Tengo from A Real Problematic Unit The first microwave was installed by our brand new home's builder and, after a few months, it needed to be replaced because it stopped operating. After a lot of searching, we were able to get a replacement and just over a year of use, the front panel started to blink and not showing numbers but part of them. It has been impossible to locate the part as NOBODY related to Whirpool is able to identify/recognize the model number (WMC50522AS1). Nobody can tell us if model WMC50522 would be the same model and if we could use the same parts. We are happy with the unit because it has a great size and works just fine but it is incomprehensible that we have to face so many problems in such relatively small length of time. We have been faithful to Whirpool through the years as many of our appliances are from your brand but, frankly speaking, it is disappointing when bad quality seems to become the rule and not the exception.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Yale from Good features After less than a month it stoped working. The store came out and got it to work but was supposed to get parts for it or replace it. It was still working. After over a month I dropped in to see what status was. They kinda got up set saying they were waiting for Whirlpool to replace it. But reluctantly he got me one out of his stock. But now sometimes after you cook and open the door the clock time just sets to zero. So I have to reset the time. It has happened in the last 3 months about 4 time. Wondering why I am have so much problems with it for only being 4/5 months old. When it works it is great.

Rated 2 out of 5 by nsane from Worked great, for 18 months I really liked the capacity, and the power of the unit. 18 months later, it's stopped working (magnetron). No parts are available. It's built-in, and these are smaller in heighth that competitors, so I can't reuse the trim kit. It's easy to replace a $300 microwave, but when you have to replace the trim kit too... Or do you just buy a microwave that you know needs to be replaced every 18 months. Doesn't seem right.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Jan retired from Hard to open Had it about a week, seems to do just fine with 2 exceptions - as I have seen in other reviews the door latch is very hard to push in to open the door. You have to hang on to the microwave with one hand while pushing the button to open the door with the other hand or you have to chase it all over the counter, hope it loosens up a bit. Other thing is that you can't silence the beep when it's done. Having a day sleeper in the house makes it a little irritating to have to try to catch it just before the end so you don't have to listen to the 5 beeps telling you it's done or waking someone up.

Rated 2 out of 5 by houseofrileys from Brand New and have issues We just built our dream home and installed this microwave. It worked great the first 3 weeks and all of the sudden it won't show the clock, but the timer for the microwave continues to work fine. Then, days later when you shut the door and set the time you want, it tells you that the door is still open so now I have to open the door and shut it again before it will let you start every time you need to use the microwave. I haven't contacted the company yet but will this week to see if we can either get it fixed or a replacement. Positives, it looks sharp, good size and has lots of options.

Rated 2 out of 5 by JessD79 from Stopped working after 6 months I bought this microwave about 1 1/2 years ago, it had issues from the start! Since this was a replacement unit for another Whirlpool microwave that stopped working properly after 1 month, I just dealt with it. It has issues when closing the door - it gives and error every other time - and you have to open the door to reset it. Then it stopped making any beeping noises - when entering anything into it, or when it was finished cooking. Sadly I didn’t call and get it replaced before the 1 year was up

Rated 5 out of 5 by dfd1303 from Great Micro! I purchased this to replace a 2006 Maytag microwave that died in a wind storm due to a power surge. It was built in over my oven and I also bought the trim kit for it and installation worked out perfectly. I have no complaints about the microwave bigger and more powerful than my old model!
