Perfect size for small spaces

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have limited counter space and this microwave has all the features of a larger one with the ability to put a 12" round plate and larger bowls.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Purchase

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Where has this been all my life?! I absolutely love this corner microwave. It takes up very little counter space yet it does everything I need a microwave to do. Plus it looks adorable sitting on my counter. I wish I had come across this years ago and couldn't be happier with my purchase. Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy access as microwave plate is slightly raised, holds plate and cover exactly. Contemporary look.

Attractive and powerful!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the Whirlpool 0.5 cu. ft. Countertop Microwave in Silver a few weeks ago....it replaced a Sharp Half Pint that is no longer available for purchase...served me well for 25 years! And still works but the aesthetic has diminished. I've found the new Whirlpool microwave to heat food much faster than my old Sharp. I have a small kitchen so space is limited. The microwave fits perfectly on my counter. Love it!

Don't let the small size fool you!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a very small kitchen. The Whirlpool 0.5 cu ft microwave is perfect for my needs. It has a unique rounded back and controls on the bottom of the unit - instead of the side - which means it takes up far less counter space.The control panel is intuitive and very easy to use. I was afraid it wouldn't heat well, but it does a better job than my larger microwave. It is small, but I can easily fit a dinner plate inside. The most difference is vertical space. There is plenty of room for a large coffee mug, but probably not enough headroom for a tall bowl. Overall, a great purchase!

Great space save, but buttons don't wear well

I bought this two years ago. Great space saving design.I've never needed to microwave anything that's too big to fit in it.Less powerful than others (heats slower) but that trade off is worth it to me for the space savings and good design.Beeping sound is a less pleasant than it could be.The button design is pretty good - I don't miss having a dial or number pad to set the cooking time.Biggest problem is that the plastic covering the buttons is wearing off - which makes it look pretty bad. I've not particularly rough with it, and not a very frequent user, so this is definitely a design or manufacturing flaw.

Lasted Only 3 Years No Service Option
on October 13, 2016

I purchased this model 3 years and it worked great until bright flashes started happening when in use. I made sure it was not related to the container material (e.g. metal, ceramic, etc). When I contacted Whirlpool customer service I was informed it has no serviceable parts and the only option is to replace it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
