ARLIME AR-0004-84 vs Whirlpool WMC20005
The Whirlpool WMC20005 is 50W more powerful (750W vs 700W), which means faster cooking and more even results. The ARLIME offers more interior space (0.70 vs 0.50 cu ft), fitting larger dishes and casseroles. The Whirlpool is more compact on the counter. At 14 1/8" wide, the ARLIME is 1 1/4" narrower than the Whirlpool — a meaningful difference in tight spaces. The ARLIME adds sensor cooking that the Whirlpool lacks.
Bottom line
The ARLIME has the edge — it offers more interior space and a smaller footprint that the Whirlpool doesn't.
