A: Since observing that this is a plastic handle I've found dozens of reviews and complaints that state the coating is subject to peeling off. Many on GE's website. What is being done to address this?
A: Hi RobD- Yes, the over-the-range microwave ovens are designed for adaptation to the following three types of ventilation: *Outside exhaust (top-horizontal), *Outside exhaust (back-vertical), *Recirculating (non-vented).

Q: how does Cafe series compare to the Profile series
A: Hello Cynthia! Both the Cafe and Profile series are loaded with premium features and options. Cafe appliances are stainless and Black Slate, where you have multiple color options with Profile (including Slate, Stainless, etc.). Profile also has a different appearance, especially with the handles. Cafe is a more "commercial" look. Thank you for considering GE Appliances! LEDA@GE
Q: Is the stainless steel fingerprint proof?
A: You can probably find a more technical answer elsewhere online, but from my experience I don't think I've seen a fingerprint on mine in the last 2 months of ownership. There could be a little luck involved there, but it has not been an issue for us yet.
Q: how do you turn off the convection oven part of the microwave when finished baking?
A: Hello Baby29 - Thank you for reaching out about this stellar microwave. We are always happy to help. The microwave will only use convection when the Convection Bake, Convection Roast, or Combination Fast Cook options are selected. Selecting anything under Sensor Microwave or even just Time Cook will only use microwave heating. We hope this helps. Stay safe and keep in touch. - John@CAFE
A: you can do microwave, convention bake, convection roast and fast cook (Microwave and convection bake together)
Q: Does the GE cafe microwave have the capability for the exhaust fan to vent out?
A: yes it can vent up, out the back or recirc, you choice if you have the vent hardwaree
