Q: Can this microwave be mounted under a cabinet not over a stove?
A: Yes. I am a contractor and I have installed these in cabinetry with a trim kit many times. I am not aware if anyone makes an under cabinet mounting kit. Probably would require a shelf system to bear the weight.
Q: What is the color of the interior? And does the interior light stay on when the door is open?
A: We can confirm that the interior of this model is a white painted epoxy finish. The interior light will come on when the door is opened and while cooking.
A: Thanks for checking with us. This particular model (GCST20S1WSS) is a countertop only model and can't be built-in with a trim kit. We recommend model PCWK22U1WDD and one of the following trim kits that are approved. X7227SLSS (Stainless steel); JX7230SLSS (Stainless steel). We don't have a current microwave that will allow you to use your trim kit. It is important to only use the trim kit designed for the specific microwave model so that the trim kit fits the microwave and provides the proper air flow that it needs. Thank you!

A: Microwave model JES2051SN was manufactured in two finishes, stainless steel (model JES2051SNSS) and black (model JES2051DNBB). Both models have the child lock feature. For more information on your local Best Buy's inventory, we recommend reaching out to them directly by calling your local store. - Julia@GEAppliances
A: This microwave is intended for countertop use only. It is not approved for a built-in installation with a trim kit. You also cannot reuse a trim kit for another microwave unit as each microwave is going to have a custom one made for that specific unit. Dianna@GE Appliances
A: We have updated our line of microwaves and this is one of our newer models. -Vikki@GEAppliances
Q: Does this replace GE Model JEB1860SM2SS
A: No, this model is not approved for built-in installation. The comparable replacement model that can be built-in is the PCWK22U1WDD. You will also need the compatible built-kit. -Vikki@GEAppliances
Q: Can this microwave be set on a countertop?
A: Yes, this microwave is designed to be placed on your counter top. We do recommend a minimum of 3" of air clearance on each side and at the top as well as 1" minimum clearance in the back. We also recommend the microwave be placed a minimum of 3" from the front edge of your counter top to prevent accidental tipping during normal usage. -Vikki@GEAppliances

Great size for my kitchen and family of 5. I was confused whether to buy 1.5 versus 2 ft. I am very happy with my choice. It fits perfectly well on my kitchen island. It does not come with choices of colors as far as I know. Indian match exactly with the color of my refrigerator.

This model GCST20S1WSS is nearly identical to a 2010 model JEB 1860SM1SS, which I just replaced using the existing trim. The term “countertop” means it could be used on the counter or placed in an opening above the oven as I did. Open the oven door and unscrew the four pan screws holding the trim, remove and set aside. Remove the screws holding the bottom inner trim mounting frame from the cabinet opening edge. With a helper, slide the old oven out, unplug it from the 110 outlet at the rear of the cabinet. Important. Before inserting the new, you must unlock the child proof oven door using the thumb screw on the right side and permanently unlock it per the instructions by turning the thumb screw with a Phillips head. Slide in the new unlocked oven and reinstall the trim.

While it was a little bigger than I planned (thats on me for not using a tape measure), this thing pumps out power and cooks my food with consistency. Previously, I had to adjust or outright abandon some deep frozen foods because the previous wasnt powerful enough. This is also large enough to accommodate my much larger, American-sized plates (we do love our food here). My tenants also grew to love it and it was a much more economical option that doing new wiring for an over the range version. Absolutely worth buying preowned.
