Fast shipping. Great description.
Cavernous. It's the second one i have installed, the first was in a rental house. Looks good, and lots of room inside. The white model is the best deal-purchased at sears on sale two sixty and picked up at the local store , much lower than list price. It is deeper than the kitchenaid it replaced by 2 inches.
Pluses:-looks good (white glossy). -very quiet. -great price. -simple chime. -easy set up.

Conclusion of Whirlpool WMH53520CW 2
Heavier than my dead kitchenaid microwave. Even so the lady at sears was able to lift it off of her cart and plop it in the back of my honda. I used a sturdy coffee table with carpet on top to help install it plus protect the gas cook top (my table is 2ft wide and 4ft long and 17inches high). The height of the carpet top needs to be about 4-1/2 inches below the bottom of the microwave. It worked great -finding the screw holes was now a leisurely exercise (and no longer panic mode) once the microwave was hooked on to the metal bar at the back, and wedged in position with some wooden blocks.
The hooks can be seen from the underside of the microwave to verify that they both are latched into the microwave sheet metal slots. Of course the microwave did have to be lifted once, but once on the carpeted table top no lifting was required only some maneuvering first to latch onto the metal bar hooks, then to locate the screws holes, and start the threads of the screws. I used the 2 cabinet 3inch machine screws/washers provided and installed the metal bar with 2 1/4-20 toggler wall anchors (the ones with 2 long pieces of plastic attached), and 2 spax 1/4 washerhead t30 lag screws. Picking up the new unit, removing the old microwave, patching the holes left by the old metal bar, and making wood blocks to go under the cabinet recess and gluing took about a day with breaks in between. Measuring the cabinet holes location and drilling holes, measuring and installing the metal bar, and then installing the new microwave then cleaning up took about a day with breaks in between.
