Q: QuestionI need to replace an over the range microwave GE spacesaver XL JVM1339WW002. How many cubic feet is the GE spacesaver xl JVM1339WW002. Will the model PVM9179DRWW be a good replacement?

This question was asked about the related product: GE - 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave with Convenience Cooking Controls - Slate

• A:Answer The JVM1339WW002 offered 1.3 cubic foot capacity. All of our current microwaves offer larger capacity ovens and will fit in the same 30" wide opening. The PVM9179DRWW offers a larger capacity oven, many great cooking features such as sensor cook, convection cook and air fry. We do recommend using the mounting bracket and hardware that will be packaged with the new model.

Q: QuestionDoes this microwave have a charcoal filter as well as a grease filter? Where is the charcoal filter and how do I access it? When do I know it has to be changed?

Asked 2 years ago by Ro.

This question was asked about the related product: GE - 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave with Convenience Cooking Controls - Stainless Steel

• A:Answer Yes, there is a charcoal filter on the top side, towards the front. There are 2 grease filters on the bottom (towards the rangetop). When the grease filters appear dirty/greasey, then it's time to replace or spray with degreaser and rinse off with a hose, dry and put back in.

Asked 2 years ago by Davidmalverne.

This question was asked about the related product: GE - 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave with Convenience Cooking Controls - Stainless Steel

• A:Answer Looking at the second "3" in the s\n and according to the NOMENCLATURE about it leads me to believe that it may have to do something with the color scheme. Otherwise the new microwave is going to have updated hardware. Hope this helps. As for your photo, that wasn't shared. But I was able to mount on my own.
