Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Small and Simple

kk123 11/22/2019

I bought this 1 month ago to fit a small space. Only microwave that I could find to fit this small of an area on the countertop. Works great. Lower wattage so I use full power level all the time; I do not need to use a "lower power level" setting as I would on a higher wattage microwave. Bit unusual set up for the time: no time setting per se thus easier to use in some respects. I just hit the start button for the 1st 30 seconds and keep hitting it to add 30 seconds at a time for the total time I want: hit the start button 4 times for 2 minutes. Only complaint: very expensive for a 700W microwave.

Fit my small space

Mtnonhigh 6/7/2019

I had a tight space, my old microwave broke, and this is what i chose for the replacement. This slides into my small space perfectly. Tucked away neatly. This is a VERY basic model. Great for heating up. If you do more with your microwave than heat up leftovers, look for different model with high end features. Rather on the expensive side,

MaryEllen63 3/21/2019

I was delighted to find this compact microwave that takes up so little counter space but still accommodates a large dinner plate and other containers. It offers more power, a turntable and cooking options my old one didn't.

really nice microwave!

woodtic 3/8/2019

I was tired of ugly, brutish-looking microwaves. This microwave looks nice, fits in a corner, so it doesn't' hog space! Plenty of interior room . Takes a while to adjust to adding cook times, but I remember the very first microwaves, so this is a breeze. Exactly what I was looking for.

Eliminated my standard Cuisinart microwave for more counter space. Performance for me is equivalent and I love the Defrost option.

Love The Corner-Fit, But Too Little Power

Kristine12345 1/22/2018

I absolutely love the corner-fit. However it takes over 2 minutes to heat a simple cup of coffee. More power please.

Great one of a kind microwave

Bobo1234 12/4/2017

We needed a small microwave for our small kitchen. I looked and looked but could find nothing that would heat a full sized plate. This is the only one that fit the bill. It fits well in the corner and takes up a lot less room. So far it works great!

Best Little Microwave Ever

Marlebolin 11/29/2017

Oh em geez! This is the best microwave I've ever owned. Love, love, love the compact size. It is mighty powerful. It heats and cooks like lightning. Perfect size and saves counter space. It looks modern and fits my style perfectly. Easy to clean. Well worth the price. So pleased with my purchase. Great job Whirlpool.

Microwave

daisypop 12/27/2016

I bought this to downsize as my family is grown and my new house has limited space. It fit into my pantry perfectly! It doest take a little getting use to as my other microwave had numbers for setting the time. But now that I have figured out how to use it I'm loving it.The other microwave was rectangles but had a rounded back inside that I really loved. (hated to get rid of that Microwave It still worked) This one has a rounded inside as well as out which helps to sit in a corner and easy clean just like the other one.Only one thing I wish could be changed is the card board type cover inside the microwave. I can see that becoming nasty with splatter in time. But so far it looks good.
