    GE Microwave

    This microwave has all the necessary features, without all the bells and whistles. The microwave looks very nice hanging above our new GE range!

    Good Value and Gets The Job Done

    So far so good. This microwave works well without all the bells and whistles and was a great value. It doesn’t feel as substantial as the microwave I was replacing - the door is much lighter and the handle is plastic and I am hoping it hold up. It doesn’t have the most powerful vent fan if you are using the convertible option for internal venting but it’s functional. Overall it’s a pretty good microwave for the price and looks nice over my cooktop.

    Microwave range

    The over the range microwave we got fit perfect in my new cabinets and made them look complete ❤️ I love the microwave being over our stove and not on the counter. Plus it works really great, and we got it on a great sale!

    Microwave

    This was the only white one available in the store. Has a lot of features. It was easy to mount for me, but it does take three people. Opening the door of the microwave and closing is a little bit clunky.

    Great microwave

    This is a great upgrade from my last over the range. It’s quiet, and powerful. It also looks great in my kitchen! Didn’t take too long to install, just need 2 people.
