Review on ๐Ÿ’ก Whirlpool E17 LED Microwave Oven Appliance Bulb (8206232A) - 2-Pack, 40W Equivalent Light Bulbs (Daylight White 6000K) by Paul Hubbard

Whirlpool Microwave LED Bulb (WMH53520)

After purchasing this product twice and returning it both times, I was told by an electrician and service company that the LED bulbs are not suitable for work due to the low voltage inside the unit . Will not work in microwave ovens equipped with lamp high/low/off settings. I noticed that the bulb runs "high" when screwed in, but flickers faintly and stays "on" (darker) when turned off. While some sellers have advised (in the fine print) that the bulbs will not work in microwave ovens designed for high/low settings/off, this disclaimer was NOT clearly stated in the general description. If the microwave comes with an LED light bulb, it has been designed to work with that type of light bulb. If it comes with an incandescent lamp, the LED lamp cannot be used without flickering and not turning off.

Pros
  • Very Impressive
Cons
  • Very Expensive
