Whirlpool Silver Countertop Microwave Oven 0.5 Cu Ft

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is actually my second microwave purchase of this model. The first one lasted 7+ years before it starting acting up. I considered other sizes, but the round back makes this model fit perfectly in the corner of my kitchen. What I like: - simple to use: just one extra button for popcorn (which gets used a lot in our house) - fits a dinner plate - has a rotating turntable that is easy to remove and clean - has an interior light to see what's cooking - easy to clean What could be improved: - I REALLY wish the front face of the door (black outline) was more MATTE finish like the bottom panel where the buttons are because the shiny black shows EVERY fingerprint, and I am wiping it down many times a day; or my true preference would be to make the entire front a brushed silver finish to match the sides--I chose silver--and that would alleviate the fingerprints. - I wish there was a way to either mute the beeps or choose low/high volume - for such a simple microwave with very few features I think it is quite expensive I found that by placing the microwave on top of a silicone mat it is much steadier when opening the door--the microwave does not move. All in all I recommend this microwave; perhaps Whirlpool will listen to my suggestions. ;-)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only had this for about a month, but it was just what we needed. We have a small kitchen and this was the perfect microwave for us. The rounded back allows placement in a corner. It's light enough that we can push it back against the wall when NOT in use. It's working perfectly so far.
