Handle and grille we’re cracked
Door handle: open door, remove screws holding door insert and insert putty into door insert to access door handle screws. Screw in new handle and snap door insert back with screws.
Very easy to replace. A short ladder provides easy access to two small Phillips screws on the top of the existing grill. Remove and keep these screws to re-use. Remove old cover and discard. Fit tabs on the bottom of the new cover into position on microwave and press entire cover securely in place matching the screw hole
... Read mores to the existing microwave. Replace small Phillips screws securely. Step back and admire your microwave!

Broken tabs
We took a chance on the less expensive black Whirlpool vent grille as I found online that it would fit our stainless steel Kitchenaid microwave. My husband was able to pry the stainless cover off the broken grille and snap it onto the new black one. Then just screw in the top screws to secure. We are very happy with the stainless/black

Plastic on original grill clips broke.
Took out 2 phillips screws on top, pulled the old grill out, hooked the tabs on the bottom of the replacement into place, positioned the top of the replacement, and replaced the 2 screws. 5 minutes. NOTE: Save the screws, new ones don't come with the replacement grill.

Vent Grille was broken and exterior door panel was completely cracked and part of it had fallen off.
I actually followed one of your previous buyers who had the same issue as I. Replacing the grille vent is easy. The door was just a little harder as I wanted to make sure I did not break the glass. Unscrewed and popped off the old pane and snapped the new one in place and put the screws back in. On a side note your site was very easy

Replacement part was perfect and a quarter the price of the brand name grill. Snapped it in, tightened 2 screws, done! Also delivery of the part was almost overnight. You guys are the greatest.

Does this Vent Grille come with the clips etc to fasten this to my Microwave?
For model number YKHMS155L
Hello Frank, thank you for your question. The Mounting Bracket PS993093 is sold individually. Good Luck and have a great day.
I am seeing there are two black colored vent grilles available for my Whirlpool microwave. Which one should I go with? The dimensions of my current vent grille are 29 1/2 wide x 3 1/4 tall x 1" deep. My microwave is from August 2005. I am also frequently replacing this grille because it keeps cracking about 5" in from the upper right corner. This area is not around a screw or mounting bracket.
For model number MH1150XMS2
Hi Rich, thank you for reaching out. The vent grill, part number PS391931, does not include the screws, and the vent grill, part number PS392273, includes the screws. If you already have the screws, then you may order the one that does not include the screws. We hope this information is useful!
Hi Paul, thank you for contacting us. The mentioned part does not fit with your model. The vent grille, part number PS897438, will work with your model. Glad to be of assistance!
Can i use part #ps392273 to replace part #897438. It is the vent grille.
For model number KHMS155LSS1
Hello Al, Thank you for contacting us. I have researched the model you have provided and have found the part you’re looking for is PartSelect Number: PS897438 (Manufacturer Part Number: 8205008). Hope this helps!

Hi there, do you still carry vent grille parts fit for this microwave model? How does it attach to the microwave? Thanks
For model number KitchenAid YKHMS1850SS0
Hello Rena, thank you for inquiring. The only replacement Vent Grille available for your model microwave is stainless steel and is part number PS2355583. You must simply remove the screws for the old one, detach it, then line up the new one and screw it on. Good luck with your repair!
