Confusing control
on July 5, 2025
Posted by: senior citizen
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] the microwave works. It replaced a 5 year old model that was much easier to operate. This new one has no 10 button key board. After a month I still can't understand how to set percent power.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Louder than the old one
I hate you have to hit stop before you can open it, and the light in there is half as bright as it should be

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like my new Whirlpool Microwave.. The new microwave has features that old didn't have, The minutes program. already preset. The accuracy of the cooking time. The safety feature of the door not opening when you stop the microwave.That feature protects my grandchildren..
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very disappointed
on May 28, 2025
Posted by: MicroMary
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We figured buying a new microwave was a no-brainer. They are self-explanatory and not complicated. WRONG when it comes to this model. Setting the time and/or power level is not self-evident and it requires looking it up in the manual. You cannot directly input the time because you have to inefficiently use + or - instead of just entering the time (the numbered buttons only go from 1 to 6). Same with the power level. Also, once you figure out how to turn off the child lock, it is not permanent (must be reset every time there's a power outage.). Also annoying but not a big deal, the open button squeaks when we use it. Very disappointed regarding ease of use in general - it's not rocket science people! Make it self-explanatory to use! Microwaves are used everywhere and you shouldn't have to figure it out.
