A:AnswerHello and thank you for reaching out about this reliable microwave. The unit requires a 120V, 9.3 amp connection and we recommend a dedicated circuit but it is not required if the proper amperage is available. We hope this hopes. Keep in touch! - John@GEA
A:AnswerThe control panel does not have any illumination or backlighting. Also, there are no tactile indicators on the control panel to guide a sight-impaired person or, otherwise, a person with vision in a darkened room. You may need light from another source, such as the kitchen light, or perhaps a small flashlight to see and read the controls, if using this microwave in a darkened room. At the low price and other features and quality, I am happy with it, anyway.
A:AnswerHi there - Great question! We're finding that there isn't a hanging kit available for this microwave model. Thanks for considering GE Appliances! -Mikayla
A:AnswerHello acebaker and thank you for the excellent question. We are happy to help. The sides and top of the unit are black. Please let us know if you have any more questions. - JB

A:AnswerHi LB - GE® Countertop Microwave Oven JES1072SHSS cannot be mounted under a cabinet. We suggest to view GE Profile™ 1.1 Cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave Oven PEM31SFSS and GE® 0.7 Cu. Ft. Capacity Countertop Microwave Oven JEM3072SHSS. These models are compatible with optional Undercabinet Hanging Kit JXA019K (sold separately). Thanks for choosing GE! Sue
A:AnswerHi Karabunga - We certainly appreciate your loyalty. A 10.5" dinner plate will not rotate properly. It is important in a microwave to always keep at least a 1" clearance on all sides and at the top of the dish or utensil. GE Profile™ Series 1.1 Cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave Oven PEM31FMDS has a 10.625" turntable. Keep in touch- Sue
A:AnswerYour measurements are accurate. Mine is in a cupboard with an opening of 18 1/4" and it works well. My cupboard gets wider after the opening framework. But I think you would have about 3/8" on each side.

count down. It does not feature any other multistage cooking. Thanks for viewing GE! SUEatGEA
A:AnswerHello Jim - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and we are happy to help you. If your microwave is not built-in to the cabinet, then this JEM3072 is a great replacement model. However, if your microwave is built-in to the cabinet, then the JEM25GV002 used a trim kit that required a cabinet cutout of 15" high x 24-13/16" wide. The current replacement model would be the PEM31 as the approved trim kit requires a similar cutout dimension. We hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!
A:AnswerHi tyler13- This is Sue at GE Appliances. Thanks for viewing our GE Series Microwaves! The approximate exterior dimensions are as follows: (HxWxD) 10 3/16 in x 17 5/16 in x 12 3/4 in.

A:AnswerHi irishh7- This is Sue at GE Appliances. Thanks for your consideration! Yes, the Cooking Complete Reminder is a beep that occurs once every minute after the normal cooking cycle has ended. It is designed to remind you when the cooking time has completed. Begins 1 minute after the 'Cooking Complete Signal'. This is different from the 'Cooking Complete Signal' which is 4 beeps heard only once and directly at the end of the cooking cycle. To terminate 'cooking complete reminder', touch Clear/Off or open the door. Operates on the cycles that terminate automatically, such as Time Cook, Defrost, etc. All cooking functions which do not terminate automatically, such as Temperature cook/hold will not have a "Cooking Complete Reminder". Audible aid when recipes call for standing time after cooking- No need to set the kitchen timer. Just keep track of the beeps from the 'Cooking Complete Reminder'. (i.e.: after 5 beeps / 5 minutes have expired). Thanks for checking with us!
