This microwave oven was purchased to replace a GE 0.7 cubic foot one not only because the GE was dieing (power getting weaker), but also because we are in the process of changing out the white kitchen appliances to stainless steel. Also, my wife really liked the 30 second button on the old microwave and after a bit of research it turns out that very few brands have this feature. Those that do include GE, some Sharp, Whirlpool, and KitchenAid. We pruchased the Whirlpool because of the style/design (stainless steel, model MT4155SPS) and the price (KitchenAid is nice, but the microwaves are very expensive/over-priced). This microwave has a stainless steel door and front control panel and then the top and sides are black and blue LED on the control panel. The additional size (1.5 Cu. Ft.) and power (1100 watts) are welcomed especially since this microwave doesn't really take up that much more physical countertop space than a 0.7 Cu. Ft. one does. Unfortunately, the GE had quick start buttons for the 1-6 digit button and a +30 second button as well. This one does not have that feature, but does have a Jet Start 30 second button as well as other features such as Sensor Cooking (Cook, Reheat, Popcorn). I find the popcorn and defrost options to be the most useful. When heating is complete, it has a pleasant chime and a remind beep that continues until you open the door. On top of that, a "Enjoy your meal!" message scrolls across the display! Overall I am very pleased with this microwave. It has the features I use most and an appearance that matches the rest of my kitchen appliances all at a reasonable cost.
