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.

Horrible

Mimi73 12/1/2019

I'm upset that I even have to give it a star it should be zero. This microwave came with the appliances that was apart of a package for the home we had built, it's the worst. I've only had it for a year and a couple of months. The first 3 months in the clock kept resetting itself, then the beeping completely stopped after 6 months and now the numbers are all chopped off. keep away from this microwave. save your money

Heats food up well

Kevin284 11/19/2019

The microwave itself is nice, heats food evenly and quickly. Only issue I have is the very first week I owned it, the door would no longer open with the push of the door release button. You have to lift up and pull on the door to get it to open.

Whirlpool Microwave

Tigger422 8/9/2019

We purchased the Whirlpool Microwave to replace a microwave that quit working after 10 years. So far, it has performed well with no problems. It is very quiet - which I like a lot.

Broke after 14 months and light use

BFordWhite 7/22/2019

Unit came brand new with home. We use it every other day. Sound stopped working after a year. Heating unit broke at 17 months. Only 1 year warranty, so we are SOL. I won't buy Whirlpool again.

Noisy

pwprince 7/7/2019

Haven't had the oven too long, but here are first impressions: Noisy - will not stop beeping; Not if you open it up just as the cycle finishes. Beeps after finishing for awhile to "remind" you of your item in the oven. Can't find a way to configure to silent mode. There are no manuals online. Also, the door button is noisy open and the door slams shut no matter what because there is no handle. Too noisy.

Lemon

Mr Cub 3/19/2019

Bought in December to replace 12 year old GE unit that failed. In February, after nearly 3 months of use, the light went out. It is not replacable. Then the clock failed. Still under warranty so they sent a new one. After one week it is still working.

Great warranty replacement

Newhome2019 2/5/2019

This microwave was a builder install on a new home. The gray wave guide card inside of the oven did not have tabs on one side and fell out. The oven would not operate after that. Whirlpool sent a replacement microwave and had techs install it. Not sure why the small card was not available yet but was pleased with the response!

Can do it all

Voss 1/3/2019

This microwave is the perfect size for our kitchen and has all the power we need. Rather than purchase a microwave with lower wattage that doesn't cook or warm things up in a reasonable time, we opted for this one and don't regret it at all.
