Customer Reviews

Rated 1 out of 5 by Christina_LA from Terribly disappointed! Plastic pieces falling off I bought this microwave in April of 2018 with the intention of building my kitchen around it. The aesthetic is beautiful. However, there are plastic pieces of the door falling out onto the counter and the door is separated. Keep in mind this is only used by myself and my husband. No children, ever. With no help from customer service, I’m told that the only fix is to replace the door at the cost of around $300. In addition the to repairman cost of $95 + tax. Seriously??!! No wonder they only offer a one year warranty. I am so disappointed. I spent the extra money on this product because I thought Whirlpool would live up to their name.

Rated 1 out of 5 by SirGoss from Doesn't do what they say 1st select frozen vegetables done cold. Can vegetables slightly warm reheat, still cold. Beverages, still cold, frozen tv dinner, not done. Casserole slightly warm. Soup warm. basically nothing gets hot or done. Wless connection, oh router must be within 12 feet, duh the microwave is in the kitchen! but I don't have to worry because mine can't connect. Haven't did the oven, so far this is the poorest cooking microwave I have ever had, buyers remorse. Wish I could get my money back. Buyer Beware, go with a different brand that actually cooks the food. for a lot less money that does what it says it does instead of one that doesn't.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Vasudev from Horrible product This is the 2nd Whirlpool microwave where I have door falling apart. My first one started breaking in less than 3 years and this model started breaking in less than 15 months. I am never buying Whirlpool products again. Apparently for a Whirlpool technician to come home and check the defect, they are going to charge me $150 and the door costs more than $200 which is more than the actual cost. I never saw microwave door falling apart and I bought the Whirlpool microwave again thinking that the first one was coincidence. So all the latest models have issues with the doors.I don't have any complaints about the actual functionality of the microwave though.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Daniel M from Whirlpool Doesn't Stand Behind Their Products Purchased the Microwave a year and a Half ago and a few weeks after the 1 year warranty was up, the Magnetron went out along with a diode. About 3 weeks after that was repaired the keyboard became unresponsive and entire microwave had to be unplugged and plugged back in order to reset the appliance before it would work. The keyboard continues to malfunction. The alarm goes off and errors are displayed on the screen randomly when there is no one around the microwave like in the middle of the night. Whirlpool customer service supervisors said they are unwilling to replace or repair the 1.5 year old appliance because it is out of warranty.

Rated 1 out of 5 by jgav351 from terrible design, falls apart in 1 year I'm not sure where all the raving reviews are coming from. I purchased this microwave in oct 2017. It is part of a 4 piece whirlpool appliance suite we purchased for our newly remodeled kitchen. It is at the specified height above the range. Right at the 13 month mark, little pieces of plastic began falling out of the door. Shortly after that, the electronic panel shut off and became inoperable. We did not opt for the extended warranty, as this is a MICROWAVE, and an expensive one at that. The 20+ year one that we replaced is still working at my husband's shop. After 7 phone calls to whirlpool, i finally convinced them to send out a repair company on their dime, and they ended up replacing the door. This is GOING to happen again. It is a very poor design. The heat from the stove causes the plastic in bottom of the door to become brittle, and since the electronic panel is inside the door, it eventually becomes loose and quits working. I would also like to mention that all 4 of my new whirlpool appliances purchased in oct 2017 have broken within 15 months and have all had repairs. If you do buy whirlpool, which i do not recommend, buy the extended warranty thru whirlpool because they will disown you after your one year manufacturer warranty is up. Poor quality products and no ownership for their products.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Clare1963 from Easy to operate, and great features My last Microwave cratered after 7 years of frequent use, and I'm hoping this Whirlpool microwave will last longer. The handle is on the side, so less chance of breaking off. The oven has a great menu of options to choose from for defrosting, melting of butter, or just warming up a dinner plate of food. The walls of the oven have an "easy-clean" surface for spills. Have melted butter for baking and popped corn successfully, made my oatmeal, and cooked eggs in a plastic container for breakfast. Also its great for melting frozen peaches for pie filling, or a topping for ice cream. It also has convection features which are useful.

Rated 4 out of 5 by yobro from Like the versatility This unit some really nice features. The wifi comes in handy as the smartphone app provides an easy way to choose your settings and gives you extra information on your preheats. It's ability to be an extra convection oven helps a ton with baking side dishes when the main oven is in use. My one issue is operating it at night. Only some of the menu items are back lit. The non-lit buttons you cannot see unless you have the lights on. I don't really buy any processed foods or meals, so I can't comment on the scan to cook feature. I definitely would buy this again!

Rated 1 out of 5 by Unhappy8723 from broke within 2 weeks and they don't want to replac We received this new microwave less than two weeks ago and it started throwing codes within two weeks. I called whirlpool, they put me in touch with another service company, the guy came out, and he couldn't fix it. He said they had to order a door. I am frustrated. Why aren't they replacing the microwave instead of fixing it when its less than 2 weeks old?! He said he couldn't help and I would have to talk with whirlpool and why I am writing this review... oh and by the way we also ordered a new oven at the same time and it arrived with a broken hinge and we are still waiting on repairs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Patteebee from Everything we wanted We needed to replace an old microwave. My husband wanted one with a powerful vent fan. I wanted one that was a combination microwave/convection. This model filled both requirements. It is nice looking and fairly intuitive to operate. I have used most of the functions and everything works perfectly. It is much quieter than the old one ...both the microwave and the fan. And the sounds it makes when the food or the timer are done is very pleasant. I was warned by a repairman not to buy a model with the controls in the door as this is a weak point. But because it had the other features we wanted, we took a chance.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Droboto from Huge ! Looks Great, Works Great. I have had this microwave for more than 1 month now. It is much larger than the replaced one. Complaints about user interface, not backlit until you actually press a button... would like it to backlight when I try to push a button ? cant find the light button unless I turn the lights on in the kitchen, then, I don't need the light anymore. Controls also leave fingerprints that don't wipe away easily, am a little concerned about how it will look in a year or two. Overall, very happy with Microwave, used as an oven for some appetizers (true convection), soften ice cream for the kids...
