KitchenAid - 1.9 Cu. Ft. Convection Over-the-Range Microwave - Black Stainless Steel

The KitchenAid convection microwave that we purchased is a wonderful replacement of our previous model/brand. The cooking time of most foods has been reduced. The control panel along the bottom of the door, is well integrated with the overall esthetics. The exhaust fan has 6[six] settings which are powerful. The microwave came with a Steamer bowl/container which is a bonus. Pleasant chime when foods are done, alert you rather than an annoying sound. Overall we are very happy with our microwave. Careful research was our key this time! Thanks

This was my second KithcheAide purchase as I have been replacing my other appliances after only 5 years! I purchased KA refrigerator Dec. of 2019 and loved the durability, quality and richness of the black stainless. Once my 5 year old microwave stopped working, I knew my next purchase would be a KitchenAide microwave. As expected it was no surprise when both my microwave and dishwasher stopped functioning an/or continuously had to be serviced again only 5 years old. I did my research as to quality, durability and ease of use and serviceability. I then went to Best Buy and received exceptional customer service. I love the large capacity, sleek look and the user friendly cooking selection settings. It walks you through every step to ensure proper cooking times. Beyond useful when cooking with the convection! Cooks great and evenly and not to mention I can bake without having to use my range oven. Keeps the house a lot cooler! Great investment for the exceptional quality!

This is no ordinary microwave oven. With the convection baking it becomes a secondary oven during busy holiday times. With a clean and professional exterior that opens up to a spacious interior. Compared to my prior KitchenAid this unit is much quieter

Microwave is excellent quality and very quiet. Controls are a bit wonky at first, but doesn't take long to get used to them. Also, I installed this microwave myself and the instructions weren't very clear. If you've never installed a microwave before, opt for the installation. Overall, excellent product! (don't mind the range in the pic, that's next to be replaced!)

It was with some hesitation that I spent as much as this microwave costs but my history with KitchenAid has been solid. (I have several other appliances and small appliances from KA.) This was my first KA microwave and, with my gas range, I needed a 400 CFM exhaust fan so this was distinctly ahead of the other brands/ offerings. The true bonus lies in the convection oven features. The programming is great with a manual option to allow for baking/ roasting anything that will fit as well as my KA gas range does without heating the entire kitchen. The ventilation is quiet and powerful unlike my past GE profile or LG over the range models. The microwave itself is very capable and powerful. I prefer my vegetables only barely steamed or cooked and the steamer sensor function results in a perfect product for cauliflower and broccoli. I have successfully experimented with steaming eggs and am confident that this can be perfected in time. I would recommend this to anyone in any situation. There is a bit more stainless around the face of the unit due to the door closure lipping-over the edge a bit which gives this a nice, overall clean look - not to mention the bright and wonderful stainless interior.

Been wanting a convection microwave for so long and so happy i went with this Kitchen Aid version. It is quiet, works great and looks beautiful!

This microwave/convection oven is so pretty and works so well. This has a little learning curve especially when it comes to the convection oven. I have used it to make pizza, cookies and mac and cheese. Putting metal racks and dishes into a microwave even though you are using the convection oven is pretty strange. Remember the pans DO get hot. Yep, that was my first mistake. I am not allowing bags of popcorn to be made in this, I purchased an item to pop popcorn in and the popcorn setting works very well. I had to try many popcorns and the best one is Organic popcorn from Trader Joes. I don't know why, I tried 4 other kinds and with the sensor on the TJ popcorn worked the best. I made cookies the same time I was trying out the oven and it took a little longer and I used the preset button and I thought it was too much time, however, it was perfect. Now you can only do two small sheets and about 6 cookies on one sheet, but it worked well. The microwave works very well and a large cup of water will boil in less than 3 minutes. The pizza turned out so well, Tombstone, and so did the mac and cheese from Sam's premade. I actually preferred the way it turned out vs my Delonghi cooker, which I have loved for several years and still do. It takes a minute to heat up the oven for cooking, but the way the food turned out it was worth it. If you are cooking for 2 and a smaller meal this is just what you need.

I purchased this microwave solely based on it being the only model that I could find that opened and closed quietly. The sound of my family slamming the microwave door drove me crazy so when my Kenmore Elite started to run when the door was open and not run when it closed I jumped at the chance to try and find a quiet microwave. My search consisted of me opening and closing the door of every unit on display. This KitchenAid was the clear winner. I paid for a convection element that I may never use just for the almost slam-proof door. This oven looks very nice in my kitchen and it is so quiet! I can hardly tell that it’s running. Had no idea that my former unit was so loud. The exhaust fan is loud however. I only have 2 complaints: you can’t pause to check your food then resume with the remaining time. You have to press cancel then start over. And I don’t think you can turn off the reminder sound. It’s either all sound off or on. The reminder beep is annoying. Oh, one more con is that if you put something in the microwave and don’t start it right away you have to open and close the door again to turn it on. I don’t know how long the lag is, I’ve never timed it but it’s annoying that I can’t put a bowl of soup in the oven, let it sit for a few minutes while preparing other stuff then start the soup without the thing making me open and close the door. Overall I do like this microwave. When my fridge goes I’m going to buy a KitchenAid to match.

I love this microwave/convection oven. It’s easy to use and easy to clean. Excellent product.
