Rated 2 out of 5 by LynneRichmknd from Door won’t close without 3 tries This microwave worked for a couple of months and then it started not closing on the first try. We have to do some stupid back and forth EVERYTIME we open and close it!!!! It is ridiculous! I have searched and searched and found nothing to help us troubleshoot this unit. It sinhaedwired in the island so we can’t get into it without an electtician. I’m so disappointed with it. We flooded in Harvey and it was the splurge I allowed myself when we rebuilt. It has been very disheartening. Everything I have in my kitchen is Kitchenaide and this has been the only problem. I would not suggest this item unless someone can give me an idea of how to reset this thing.

Rated 3 out of 5 by arodriguez522 from Good, but needs design improvements I love that this microwave fits hidden under the counter and we don't have to bend down to see in, however, it would be so much more convenient if the buttons lit up so we could see them easily. We still have to bend down to see what buttons we are pushing, which is what we were trying to avoid with a drawer model. Please note it is also not as tall on the inside as a regular microwave, so some items (i.e. food in microwaveable pouches - rice, soups, etc.) will not stand up.

Rated 3 out of 5 by sledhead36 from Great look, works well, why no back lit buttons? I recently bought an entire Kitchen Aid package, I love all the appliances except for this one. The buttons are so hard to read in dim light. Why are they not back lit, so you can see them? I would give this products a 5 if they did not omit that one feature available on any other brand.

Rated 4 out of 5 by sarahmac from Fits nicely I bought this because I wanted to avoid the over the range microwave that doesn't vent well. This fits nicely into a base cabinet designed for the microwave drawer. My only complaint is that the buttons are difficult to see without bending down. It would also help if they were illuminated from behind. I'm not sure if there are any models available with these features, but that is probably the only change I would make if I had it to do over.

Rated 1 out of 5 by lore47 from Drawer door faulty & didn't heat at first We had it installed on November 19, 2018 by our contractor. It didn't do the one job it's supposed to do- heat up food! So KitchenAid sent a service to take it to their shop and repair it. Then in January 2019 the door closes and pops open again. So the only way to get it to work is to manually push it in. I called KitchenAid again and they just want to repair it again. This should not be happening with a brand new $1600 appliance!

Rated 4 out of 5 by M. Gus from Stylish, Cool, But Tough to Read I love all of the features and am still getting used to selecting the appropriate function vs. just nuking something for a minute at a time until its hot. The sensor functions seem to do the perfect job of reheating and not drying out the food. The main complaint it the inability to read the buttons. In a product that is likely going to be mounted well below eye level, why would this not be backlit. I know you can program it with the drawer open and use the light from inside the drawer. But this still is very difficult to see the buttons.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Waters from Quit working Installed microwave. Went to use it a few days later and it doesn't work. Went through the manual for a quick fix, like the lock out was on but no help. Have a call in to have it repaired..

Rated 4 out of 5 by BP.... from Great Features This is an outstanding unit! There is one item that this unit truly needs and requires for greater ease of use...illuminate the numbers panel and all other functions. Those would make that microwave even better. Oh yes, one ... raise power output to 1000.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Chrissy211 from Sensitive buttons The microwave is great. We live that it is hidden under the island. The buttons are very sensitive and we often bump them on accident while working at island. The drawer will open at you or we will accidentally start the microwave. I wish there was a lock feature to stop this from happening.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anna-Marie from Poor heating I purchased this back in June 2018 at Lowe’s part of my kitchen renovation. Delivered in my garage a month later. Installed in October. At first I thought I was using it wrong, the sensor program. I tried time. Food does not get heated. Even liquid. It takes 20 mins or more to hear milk. November contacted Lowe’s. Told me is under warranty to call a number they give me, appliance repair. Came to my house three times keep changing bad parts. Hoping to have it fix by Thanksgiving. Nope, still broking. The repair man came by yesterday, changed more parts. Still not working. Coming back Monday 12/24 with more parts. He said there’s a lot of bad parts in this microwave. I thought I got quality microwave for the price and brand name. I even recommended at work for office kitchen renovation. Luckily they went different brand. Frustrated with KitchenAid and Lowe’s.
