great for small counter space

While I thought this was a little pricey I felt it was worth it to have a unit that was compact enough to fit on a narrow section of counter space. I used to have an old Sharp Carousel dorm size microwave and it died after years of use and until spotting this item I had been unable to find a similar compact microwave. This Whirlpool microwave has more power than a lot of the bulkier models I had to use in the interim before finding this brand and model. I also like that it only does a few brief beeps when done cooking. Some other brands I've had in the past seemed to never stop beeping and beeped so loudly it sounded like a Mack truck going in reverse. This is much quieter and the beeps just a few times which is all you need.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Super microwave for a small space

This microwave is small in foot print, does not have a lot of unused features, but gets the job done. We were creating a "tower" for small appliances in our kitchen when I lucked up on this microwave. It fit right in. The wattage is a little low but you learn to deal with it.

Great little machine

I wanted a small microwave that would fit in my apartment easily. This microwave does the trick by making use of vertical space and nestling into a little area on my counter. I especially like that the door is high enough that I can have a bowl in front of the machine when I open the door, and I can see into the machine very easily while it is running. Best of all, it is a really cute little guy!Only complaints are that it takes a while to set longer run times, and that the beep when it is done is a little loud. However, I really appreciate it reminding me that it was done if I don't open the door after the first beep!

Nice for office

Works well, is a nice design, but it would be better to be able to program in the time instead of having to hit the 30 second button multiple times to get to a larger time amount.

This product is a great space saver

I live in a condo with a galley kitchen and limited counter space. I love this microwave because it fits into a corner and gives me more counter space to cook. I like the design where the electronics are under the microwave instead of on the side making it more compact. I've had it for almost a year and have no complaints.

Great product if you are space limited.

We bought this product because we needed a compact microwave due to lack of counter space. The features are outstanding and the unit is easy to use. Being able to hold a dinner plate is perfect for our use. We have made popcorn and queso in addition to regular items. Comes out great every time. Would definitely recommend this product.

I love the size and shape of this microwave, for I have limited space on my kitchen counter. It is easy to use, and so far it has lived up to my expectations.
