The KBMC147HSS is a US-market KitchenAid microwave oven. No published specification for this model was recovered, so there is no dimension or capacity quoted on this page. A number lifted from a sibling model would be worse than silence. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from November 2001 to July 2007 and gone after that.
KitchenAid appends a two-digit production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KBMC147HSS05. A plate reading one of those is still a KBMC147HSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A microwave oven of that vintage is two decades or more into service, and the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive are long past as-new. Being out of production, a KBMC147HSS has its parts position checked at the outset rather than after a diagnosis.

Most Common Issues on This Model
A cooling fan path blocked with grease, so the oven overheats and stops part way through a programme
Waveguide cover degradation inside the cavity, visible as scorching at one spot
Cavity paint worn through where dishes rub, which leads to rust at that spot
Keypad legends worn away with use, so the panel is hard to read
