The KBMC140HWH belongs to KitchenAid’s US microwave oven catalogue. No published specification for this model was recovered — no dimension, no capacity, no feature list — so none is stated here, and no figure has been taken from a neighbouring model number. It sat in KitchenAid’s US catalogue from December 2001 until October 2003, which is the window the archive records.
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 KBMC140HWH02. A plate reading one of those is still a KBMC140HWH; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A KBMC140HWH still in a kitchen today has twenty-odd years behind it, and that age shows first in the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive. Since the model is out of production, we settle what can still be supplied for it before the work is quoted.

Most Common Issues on This Model
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
A door seal face damaged, which the oven can read as an interlock fault
