The KCMS145JSS is one of the KitchenAid microwave ovens. 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 sat in KitchenAid’s US catalogue from November 2001 until August 2014, which is the window the archive records.
A KCMS145JSS 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. Being out of production, a KCMS145JSS has its parts position checked at the outset rather than after a diagnosis.

Most Common Issues on This Model
Door hinge and latch wear, so the door sits proud of the frame and the interlocks no longer line up
Exhaust fan noise or failure, where the unit is installed over a range
Grease and charcoal filters left unchanged, which shows as poor extraction and a labouring fan
High-voltage component failure, which is bench work for a technician rather than anything an owner can inspect
