[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] VERY disappointed that this unit is a replacement for a great microwave I had. It is smaller and has not nearly the usable applications of previous. Again, VERY disappointing replacement.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] the touch pad requires more pressure than expect- takes time. Storing new settings (volume) does not work.
The keypad on this appliance is incredibly difficult to use, the required commands to just reheat coffee utterly redundant, and basic features, like resetting the time, impossible to access without going through countless menus. It also constantly disconnects from the WiFi, so we have to reestablish the connection at least weekly. The decent functionality of the oven is completely over-shadowed by the annoying inefficiencies of just turning it on. Horrible purchase.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The KMMS130RPS microwave has been a good microwave for the month or so has been in my kitchen. It has plenty of room inside and blends well with my other appliances. Additionally, the exhaust fan is much more powerful than my previous microwave. There is quite a steep learning curve on the operation of this microwave because it works quite differently than others I have owned. The fact that it comes with only summary instructions is not helpful—I finally went to the KitchenAid site and downloaded an operation manual, which helped tremendously. Only other problem to mention is the volume level (even when set on high) of the notification tone,
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall modern and streamlined appearance. Nice assortment of function buttons. Provides very low lighting for over the range, very disappointing. I have had to purchase additional lighting to see what I’m cooking. Would expect brighter lighting for an over-the-range microwave. Overall loud when in use due to the venting.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The size of it is great. Sometimes the buttons are hard to push, but otherwise, this is a fabulous microwave. It looks great in my kitchen with the other KitchenAid items.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great but two things that would make it better: 1) a handle would make the door easier to open by allowing your whole hand to be used, also the built-in notch in the lower corner that serves as a handle over time seems it would twist the door. 2) For the price point we expected a higher cooking watt.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I find the controls are difficult to understand. I first could not figure out how to open the door, It's awkward to push a button to open the door, why not a relief under the edge? Pushing the button multiple times to turn off the light? Still don't use any of the automatic features, no DIRECDTIONS?
