21 3/4" Countertop Microwave Oven with PrintShield™ Finish - 1200 Watt

This versatile countertop microwave delivers the beauty of an easy-cleaning, smudge-resistant PrintShield™ finish, the speed and accuracy of nine sensor-driven and pre-programmed cooking cycles, precise timed defrosting, plus convenient electronic controls and LED displays. The 13 1/2" turntable is recessed to maximize the large 1.6 cu. ft. capacity. Available 30" or 27" Trim Kits provide a sleek built-in look when paired with a single wall oven.

Features

9 Quick-Touch Cycles Including Six Sensor Cycles

Takes the guesswork out of getting exceptional results from your microwave. The microwave will automatically adjust cooking time based on a menu of preprogrammed, menu-driven cycles.

Timed Defrost

Allows intuitive operation by automatically setting the microwave oven's power level at 30% for the amount of time you select.

Electronic Controls with LED Display

Make the microwave easy to use and provide a display that shows the functions that are being programmed.

Additional Features

PrintShield™ Finish

Resists smudges and fingerprints. The specialized coating for stainless steel is easy to clean with just water and a soft cloth, so you can spend more time cooking and less time cleaning up.

13 1/2" Recessed Turntable

Helps evenly cook food by continually rotating throughout the cooking cycle. The turntable is sunken into the bottom of the microwave to maximize the capacity.

Accepts 30- or 27-Inch Trim Kit

Allows you to install your countertop microwave into an existing cutout for a more integrated appearance.

1.6 Cu. Ft. Capacity

Provides large capacity to make this microwave a true complement to a wall oven or range.

1200-Watt Cooking Power

Cooks with the power to quickly defrost or heat even large dishes.

Color-Coordinated Stainless Steel Cabinet

Is finished in a color-coordinated brushed stainless steel to complement the other appliances in your kitchen.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Reddog2 from Good features Good quality And functionality. All the built-in ovens were to deep for my cabinet opening. I used this counter top with a trim kit and it fit well.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Jeanie1615 from Keypad will not work after 24 months Recently remodeled entire kitchen and purchased all new KA products including this microwave in 2018. First the light for the time display began going out about two months ago. Then a month later some of the numbers would not work when pressed. Now the whole keypad does not work. What a waste of money!!!!! It was cheaper to buy a different brand microwave than to get it fixed. I wish I would have read the reviews before purchasing and hope that I don't have problems with the other appliances I purchased. Do not buy this microwave.

Rated 1 out of 5 by ShawnS from Keypad & Display failed just out of warranty I've always had Kitchenaid appliances and considered them top notch. Just bought a whole suite of Kitchenaid appliances for my kitchen remodel. Spent $9000 with them including this $600 microwave to match the collection. Now just out of warranty the microwave keypad and display are not working. Called help line and they just tell me they won't help (after speaking with two levels of managers in their care resolution department). Now I have a $600 microwave for the landfill. Do not buy this microwave!! I'm seriously disapointed that my loyalty is not worth anything to Kitchenaid. I don't think I will be buying another Kitchenaid appliance again with this kind of disregard for the customer experience. I cannot recommend purchasing any Kitchenaid appliances to my friends and family.

Rated 1 out of 5 by DannyO1 from Do not buy I purchased this product new in January 2018 and the control panel crystals failed before the product was even 2 years old. I cannot read the time or settings. Kitchenaid is unwilling to help because the one year limited warranty expired. Replacement parts are not available, so I have to spend another $500 to replace it. Not what I expected from KitchenAid. Do not buy this product.

Rated 1 out of 5 by NascarTjan from Touchpad does not work Bought this microwave with all all other KA black stainless appliances for our new home. We love the black stainless color but in less than 1.5 yrs of limited use (my wife and I) the touchpad stopped working. Doesnt seem right to invest premium money for KA and have it break. All other KA appliances have been great.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Carol6347 from Depth in specs is incorrect, should be 18" Can't accurately rate the model because KA is in the process of exchanging with no hassle due to nonfunctioning power button. Do want to alert KA and buyers that the actual depth is 18" due to bulge at the back which my prior model did not have. Also, the plug is a straight in plug vs a side plug which can make a difference in your measurements. Formerly owned KCMS1555RSS2, and the door is much stiffer on the new model. I've had a few "door" messages as well when the door was fully closed. This unit seems to require longer time settings and the colon between the hour and minutes flashes continuously, which is unusual. I've only had the unit a short time and use has been limited due to the power button failure so I can't really be sure, whether I just haven't adjusted to the "feel" of the new unit, have a unit with more than one problem or if I just don't like the new model as much as my old one. Primary concern is alerting all to the depth being inaccurate which resulted in having to have an electrician move the outlet in the built in cabinet for a better fit. Prior post on the other 213/4 " model was in error. Hopefully, KA will take it down.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Dlpick from Terrible I sold appliances for 13 years and always felt good about Kitchen Aid, and for the most part probably still do-all except for this microwave! Replaced a KA I had for 10 years with this one, half the features of my old one, terrible hot spots on food, four minutes to warm up soup/chili. I'd say it more like 800 watts, vs the 1200 claimed, very disappointed -should have bought the unbranded Maytag....

Rated 1 out of 5 by katedid from So disappoimted Purchased within a month. When opened the box the styrofoam was broken as well as the turntable support. The published dimensions were incorrect and the appliance will not fit in my under cabinet microwave shelf. Use on the counter is poor - the metal/plastic "feet" make it slide all over the place. Requested help to find rubber "feet" from Kitchenaid. So far no response. It could have been a great product, works well, but too many issues right now.
