Reset power Issue
on June 19, 2025

It’s sleek but the container error message of “ BACK Power to your appliance was lost. You may need to check on your food in your appliance. Press CONFIRM to set time and date.” is super annoying. Fan is also quite load. Happy with the features just wish it wouldn’t just “reset” whenever it wanted. Shouldn’t happen with such an expensive appliance. Not sure how it gets through quality
I purchased 2024. I like the look, design and high-tech figures. I'm given is a 1 star because the quality of heating, and cooking of ALL figures (microwave, air fryer, conventional oven is very poof. It takes over 5 minutes to heat the smallest portion in the microwave, the air fryer and conventional oven either over cook, burn or under cook. I wanted an all in 1 functional appliance and I got an underperforming space holder instead that's not worth the price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would have liked a full set of instructions on how to use. There is so much to this microwave and I only use two things on it. Just not enough information with the oven.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This microwave oven (and it is many more things besides just a Microwave) is excellent. It is sleek, professional in appearance, cooks relatively evenly, even without a turntable, and cleans up easily. I have only had it for a little over a month, so I’m still learning new things about it every time I use it, but I am most pleased with how it fits in my kitchen, and especially how it fits above my stove and between my cabinets. Since it replaced my old KitchenAid microwave/exhaust fan, it was easy to install without any modifications to my existing woodwork.
Microwave stopped working in less than 6 months. Although I purchased a service protection plan from the retailer, I was directed to contact the manufacturer as the appliance stopped working within a year of purchase. The manufacturer setup an appointment and the repair company sends an email a few days later Appliance Repair stating “we are currently awaiting the arrival of the parts needed to repair your microwave” although no one has been to my home to actually inspect the microwave to determine the issue. A few days later, I receive another email stating that “We regret to inform that we are still waiting for one or more parts as needed for repair on your KITCHENAID M/W OTR” again, without anyone ever inspecting the appliance. I then contacted the manufacturer again to inform them of the lack of service that I have received from the repair appointment that they setup and their response is simply “All that we can do is setup the service appointment”. At this point, the manufacturer can continue to push the issue over to their authorized repair companies until the warranty expires and I am left without a working appliance.
There is no accountability for this company actually honoring their manufacturers warranty for a product that is less than 6 months old and I am left with an inoperable microwave that does not perform its primary function of heating of food for more than 3 seconds before shutting off and generating an error message.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this wall oven in April to upgrade our over the range convection microwave oven to a more complete oven with an air fryer oven. I use the microwave daily and the air fryer feature weekly. Love the air fryer as it is three times more versatile and more convenient than our counter top air fryer. So easy to use when we are preparing meals for more than two people and we no longer have to clean or manage a special appliance. The microwave works surprisingly well without a turntable. Love the flush mount appearance and fan.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We paid for an upgrade to our builders package for this microwave (along with a KitchenAid fridge and dishwasher). I have always wanted to own Kitchen Aid appliances and was so excited. I wanted to love this multipurpose microwave, air fryer, oven, toaster. It is sleek and modern looking and in theory can eliminate almost all of your counter top appliances. Unfortunately, I have fallen out of love due to the constant loud venting after use. Using the oven or airfryer feature causes the unit to loudly vent after use for over an hour with no way to turn off the vent so forget trying to watch a movie after using any feature other than the microwave. The microwave also takes longer than any other microwave I’ve ever owned to reheat or cook or even pop a bag of popcorn. There is also no way to wipe down/clean the front door without activating the touch buttons. There should be a button to disable the touch screen for cleaning. I will be reluctantly keeping the unit but would not purchase it again or recommend it to anyone else. I’m sure KitchenAid makes other great appliances but this one missed the mark.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Microwave is not very powerful. Bake feature is difficult to use and does not seem to heat evenly because burning occurs on top. Clock constantly goes off for no apparent reason and is difficult to set. It took 4 people to set the time initially. It would be nice to receive a Users Manual but of course I have to obtain that myself on line.
