KitchenAid sold the KHMS145KSS as part of its US microwave oven range. 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 December 2002, which is the window the archive records.
KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KHMS145KSS0. A plate reading one of those is still a KHMS145KSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A KHMS145KSS 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 KHMS145KSS 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
