Comment:
My microwave just quit on me so I called the Sears serviceman to come fix it. Well guess what?? They don't make the part anymore that is needed to fix my microwave!! So I now have to go out and buy a whole new one and these built in's are expensive not to mention how much it will cost to hire an electrician to install it!!<br />STAY AWAY FROM THE KENMORE ELITE...IT'S MADE BY LG!!!
How long have you owned it:
