KitchenAid sold the KHMS2050SSS as part of its US microwave oven range. No published specification for this model was recovered. Rather than fill the gap with a figure borrowed from a similar-looking number, this page says only what the sources actually carry. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from December 2010 to January 2015 and gone after that.
KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KHMS2050SSS1, KHMS2050SSS2, KHMS2050SSS4. A plate reading one of those is still a KHMS2050SSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. That puts a KHMS2050SSS roughly ten to fifteen years into service, the point at which the door latch, the interlock switches and the turntable drive tend to need attention. The KHMS2050SSS is discontinued, so the parts question gets answered first and the price second.
