Excellent performance for a small space.

Surprisingly good performance for a small unit -- much better than the Cube we had previously. Does everything well, and the side entry of the microwaves seems to cook more uniformly than the top entry on the old Cube. Rounded shape is useful for cormer placement. Elevated door means you don't have to remove everything on the counterin front of it to access the food inside -- very convenient. Will buy another for our summer house!
I would recommend this to a friend!

This product serves conservation of counter space in our new

We were looking for a microwave to place on the counter without taking up too much space after we were unable to place our existing microwave in the cabinets. This product met our exact needs. Since we only use it to warmup, it serves perfectly!

Small Corner Micro
on September 23, 2016
Posted by: Pilates Queen
from Wheaton, IL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a new microwave and struggled to find one until I stumbled across this one. I fits into the corner very nicely and out of the way in my small kitchen. The power isn't the strongest, but I only warm up food and never cook in it, so it takes an extra 30 seconds or so to warm up your dish. It looks like an old school TV set, yet retro is in these days so it fits with my retro stove.

Great little microwave!

I love this little microwave! It does not take up much counter space and it works much, much better than I thought a 750 watt oven would work. (My old one was 1100 watt). I don't notice any difference in cook times for what I use it for... I'm very pleased with the purchase.

Whirlpool got it right

Putting the controls on the bottom of the door instead of right, was brilliant.It keeps the overall size of the machine smaller and square. The smaller footprint takes up way less counter space and tucks into a corner. Love it.

Smart in many ways.

Not only does this take up very little room, but it is also very beautiful, practical and is just enough for a large single dish. It makes one question as to why anyone needs a large microwave. No one is making a roast in it.

This microwave is perfect for me!

I bought this microwave because I have very little counter space and needed one that wouldn't take up much space. This one fits perfectly in the corner where the counter meets the fridge. My plates and bowls fit fine. You do have to hit the 30 second button two times for each minute you want the contents to cook. However, the button is very responsive and it is not a bother. The defrost feature has worked well the few times I've used it. I use the microwave mainly for reheating, popcorn and defrosting.

Loved it but is now sparking

bought this in 2014 & this was the perfect compact MW for my small office & just fit our plates. 1 week after recommending this to a friend who bought one, it started sparking and vibrating. I would still recommend with caution.
