Customer Questions and Answers for Turntable Tray by Whirlpool

The Turntable Tray is an OEM part for Whirlpool microwaves. This circular plastic tray sits atop the cavity within the microwave. The turntable tray is responsible for smoothly rotating food items during cooking cycles to ensure even heating exposure. It prevents hot and cold spots that can ruin prepared meals. The tray measures approximately 16 inches in diameter.

Causes relate to extended use over time, warping from high heat exposure, or accumulating residue that impedes free movement.

Symptoms of a worn turntable tray include:

• Inconsistent cooking results with some portions remaining underdone
• Squeaking or scraping noises emitting from below during operation
• The tray no longer spinning smoothly on its post seal track

This genuine OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
