[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Removing some cupboards meant removing the over the range microwave. We have some deep corners in our 70s built kitchen. This microwave offered the perfect size to fit the pocket. Right height, depth and length. Plus it blends perfectly and does not take an odd space amount. Features are perfect for our needs whether it's the two of us or our entire family is here. Thank you for offering this unique product. It was worth the wait!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this because I wanted a small microwave that doesn't take up space. It is fantastic. It heats well and sits in the corner. It is very attractive.
Perfect size for my tiny kitchen. Fits into a corner with no issues. The beeping (when using any of the buttons) is very loud but the reminder beep is nice so I don't forget about my tea. Child lock is nice. It took a second to get used to the controls and buttons but it was a quick learn. The small inside is a bit cramped but it fits a bowl or a tea mug and that's all I use a microwave for. Love the look/design!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This microwave is the perfect fit for the tiny kitchen we have above our garage. Getting small refrigerators, stoves, etc is no big deal but getting a small microwave to handle all of the things that you would expect is no easy task. Whirlpool’s countertop fits in a corner and works like a champ!! When my wife and I moved in to watch after my mother we needed a kitchen that works like a full size but with some space constraints. Our Whirlpool.5 cu foot countertop model handles everything we need and it doesn’t take up any space!! It literally fits in the corner.
I bought mine 5 years ago and it’s still going strong. The small size takes up little space on my counter and fits neatly in corners that are otherwise hard to use. (I’ve moved it about over the years.) The super simplicity of the controls is wonderful. It heats evenly and defrosts quickly. The only thing I would change is to have the default defrost setting be for 1 lb and not 1.5 lbs. (How often do you defrosts 1.5 lbs of anything?) That’s a very small change indeed.
I want to buy another as a Xmas present for my daughter but the shipping delays are holding me back.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this to save counter space. It does. For what we use it for, (reheating, heating water, vegetables, small jobs) it has worked flawlessly. It is not as tall inside and some coffee mugs would not fit. The controls are limited, but we found it easy to just keep adding 30 secs the quickest way to use it.
