Very Nice Microwave - So Quiet!
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.We replaced a home-builder-supplied GE microwave with this one, when the fan started to act up. It looks very good with the stainless steel front and no handle. We don't miss having a handle and like the big LED clock on the front. The control panel is on the main door which looks nice but could cause issues down the road as the cables for that are visible inside, near the hinges. We'll have to keep an eye on that one. The microwave itself is super-quiet when it is running. I have to check it is even cooking, it is that quiet. The vent fan though is loud enough on the lowest setting that you definitely are aware it is running. I have not tried the fan on any other settings, other than toggling through them to turn it off. They seem very loud so still we stick with the low setting and it seems adequate for most uses. The reheat function is very good but the defrost function seemed to overcook the chicken I tried. The timer is nice as it beeps loud enough to notice but not in an obnoxious way. You do need to go over and turn it off though or it will just go on and on. The interior is easy to keep clean and so far, has not got too messy. I notice some grease between the door and the microwave frame but if we wipe this over regularly, it should not get to messy. We are very pleased with this microwave so far and other than the noisy fan settings, it is excellent.

Dimensions not accurate
||Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.Ordered because my previous blow a fuse. So everything was already set up to mount. Nothing fit, bracket isn't the same and microwave dimensions are incorrect. Now there will be a huge gap. If i return I'm sure i won't get a replacement until end of year so I'm stuck

Makes the kitchen look nicer
||Posted .The microwave is good, functionally it's the same as most modern microwaves. We aren't using the Chef Connect feature to pair it with the oven. The unit appears much bigger than it is due to the flush door, but inside it's actually the same size as most. It looks very nice and is definitely a conversation starter as many ask questions about it and think it's much more expensive than it is. It's worth noting that the door is loud when closing. Given that it's bigger and heavier than most, it provides an authoritative thud when shutting...which some may like. It comes with a carbon filter and vents upwards, which is good for gas ranges that can't have the recirculated air pointing toward the burners. We have ours connected to vent outside, and the four speed settings are nice, although the lower settings don't seem effective so we end up using HIGH and BOOST the most. My only complaint is that the LED display is white out of the box and our GE gas range display is green. Pictures on the site show it as green but I can't figure out how to change it from white or turn off one of the redundant clocks. Overall it's a very nice microwave that impresses guests and removes the bulky handle found on most models.

Looks and works great
||Posted .Is spacious, quiet and powerful. Everything you could ask from a microwave. Also pretty sleek looking, and matches my old GE stove. Since the door is as wide as the unit, you kind of have to step back a bit to let it swing open, but got used to it fast and no longer a bother.

Disappointing Quality For GE Profile
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.We have all GE products including Washer and Dryer. We ordered this and a Profile Dishwasher to complete the set. It has great power and a solid fan. If it wasn't damaged we would love it in our kitchen. Terrible instructions that were generic and vague. Template for drilling provides a ton to be desired. Vent attachment cover is flimsy at best. Its like they assume that only professional installers are going to attempt this. Item was delivered with two dents on the face we didn't notice until we pulled the plastic off. The install is difficult so even returning it isn't an option. We are going to have to see if we can purchase a new door because its all I can see now. :(

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionI have had this microwave for 3 years and it just went completely out. I checked the breaker and that didn’t pop. Is there a fuse in the microwave or some sort of reset
Asked by Dave.
- A:Answer The exact same thing happened to my 3 year old model. Is this the life expectancy for this GE Profile model? Handyman relative thought he could replace fuse based on a YouTube video, but it turned out not to be the same model. Fuses in this model are unreachable. I really like the look of this microwave and am considering replacing it with the same model, but this time I will buy extended warranty. Last year I replaced a four year old refrigerator and a four year old washer dryer combo. I guess they just aren't making appliances with a long life span anymore.

Q: QuestionHow does this vent?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer It comes with a charcoal filter if you do not have outside access. Otherwise, standard venting. Venting requires you move direction of blowers (fairly simple) to set up either option

Q: QuestionI need to replace my GE Profile model # JVM290WV001. Will this microwave fit in the same opening as the old one?
Asked by Nana.
- A:Answer Hi Nana- All 30" over-the-range microwaves are approximately the same width, and are designed to fit into a 30" wide cabinet opening. Each microwave comes with the mounting hardware (mounting bracket, screws, exhaust adapter), top and rear templates, and installation instructions. Approximate Product Dimensions- JVM290WV001: 30"W x 15 1/2H x 14 1/4"D. Approximate Product Dimensions- PVM9005SJSS: 29 15/16"W x 17 5/16"H x 16 5/32"D. We also offer PVM9215SKSS- 29 3/4"W x 16 1/2"H x 15 1/2"D. We certainly appreciate your loyalty! SUE@GEA

Q: QuestionI need a microwave with zero clearance door. My cabinets will not allow the microwave I purchased to open the door. Does G.E. Make a zero clearance door.
Asked by Microwave.
- A:Answer Hi - Thanks for considering GE! Current models require at least 1/2" clearance on the hinge side for the door to open (Model PVM9005EJES requires 3/4" clearance). We do not offer a model with zero clearance door and apologize for any disappointment this brings. If you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to ask, we are happy to help at GEAppliances.com. Sue

Q: QuestionDoes heat from the stove cook top cause problems with the micro wave control panel?
Asked by DiamondLake.
- A:Answer Hi there, and thanks for reaching out with this great question! We certainly understand your concern over the control panel, and we’re glad to advise. This model is designed to be used over a range, so as long as it’s installed correctly with the right clearance between the cook top and the microwave, we do not anticipate any issues. When installed, the top of the microwave should be 30” above the cook top, and the mounting height should be at least 66” from the floor. If you’d like to review the information on installing, we do have our Installation Instructions as well as Quick Specs linked on the product page on our GE Appliances website; you can view that when you look up the model number. Please note that over-the-range microwaves shouldn’t be installed over any range or cooktop with a combined BTU greater than 60,000. We hope this is helpful, and we’re always available if you have any other questions or concerns. Best wishes! -Sarah@GEA
