This Countertop Microwave Ovens give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Stubborn old woman replaces 30YO microwave
I went into mourning when my 30YO Amana Radarange Plus microwave-convection oven, big enough for a 20lb+ turkey, gave up the ghost this summer. Unable to find anyone in the area who would take on repairing it, I had to face replacing it. I settled on this Whirlpool microwave...and I love it! It's a lot smaller, but I love the features. Very efficient, lives up to its billing. And the service was fantastic--it arrived within a couple days of my order. My Amana lives on as a Faraday Cage--perhaps one day I'll find a repair guy who likes working on classics. Even if I do, I won't give up my new Whirlpool microwave.
2. Powerful, quiet, but not really 1.6 cubic feet
I had to replaced a 14 year old Sharp unit that the whole family loved. This Whirlpool model was purchased because we've had good luck with Whirlpool appliances in the past and because it was 17.25" deep (the size of my microwave shelf). Many microwave ovens are now 19" deep and more. This unit is very powerful (1200 watts). It handles soup, popcorn, and hot drinks in record time for us. This Whirlpool unit is extremely quiet as well.
I have two (2) minor issues worth noting but not worth lowering the rating. Whirlpool says that one of the features is a recessed turntable. This unit does NOT have a recessed turntable. The glass turntable sits above the level of the floor of the oven. And second, the blue LED display is extremely bright. It's so bright that it's hard to focus on. We're going to have to put some window tint over the display.
I lower the rating on this oven to 2-stars based on the cavity size. The oven cavity measures 14.5" x 14.5" x...

grinding noise
I purchased this microwave based on a review by Consumer Reports and thought that I was going to love this item. Unfortunately, the microwave makes a grinding sound when it runs. We took out the little plastic hub and put it back. We made sure that the round support was centered, though it tends to shift to one side. Made sure that the glass was centered. We even had a repair guy here and he said that it was noisy and that replacing the support might help. We contacted Whirlpool and they said that they would send us a replacement support and a month later there was no replacement nor notification that there would be no replacement. Contacted the company and they said that the support that came with it should work and that they weren't sending anything out. Very disappointed. Also do not care for the placement of the start button and the cancel button. The start is on the left side and the cancel button is on the right. I keep wanting to push the right button to move forward with my...
