Great Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Easy to install & use. I set up the Bluetooth connection with my oven to turn on the fan & light when a burner is turned on. The microwave works perfectly. Still haven’t tried to use the convection bake feature yet.

Very pleased with purchase. Works well for me!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This over-the-range convection microwave has been an excellent addition to my kitchen. The microwave works well. I am very pleased with the convection baking functions. The baking oven preheats a lot faster than my full-size oven, and has done an excellent job with the pizzas, pot pies and other foodstuffs I have cooked. The rapid preheating reduces my cooking time for small items that don't need the full-size oven. This was an excellent purchase for me. At the time, Best Buy had the item in-stock, when other retailers could not promise delivery for 2 months or more. Delivery and installation were on-time, as promised during purchase. Thank you.

Fan noise on convection oven unacceptable
||Posted .I dislike the fan noise. It is so loud on the convection and combination mode. I do like the microwave option but for microwave only it is too expensive.

Confusion in the model number
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.We wanted to share the fact that there was a minor confusion in the model number of the delivered product to the BestBuy and GE team. We ordered the GE microwave model number "PVM9179SKSS" from Bestbuy online portal. We got delivered the GE microwave model "PVM9179SK5SS". There is a subtle difference in the model number. The model number "PVM9179SKSS" has the description that interior of microwave is Enamel based on the Bestbuy website. The model number "PVM9179SK5SS" that got delivered to us has interior Stainless Steel. Also, we cannot search the model "PVM9179SK5SS" number online, as there are no results found for that. We wanted to know if the model "PVM9179SK5SS" is a stable model, and if there is any reasons that the model "PVM9179SK5SS" was not found in any public internet searches (like new, or discontinued, or recalled, etc) ? Appreciate you clarification.
