Q: QuestionHi, Is it Fingerprint Resistant model? (BestBuy includes it when choose Fingerprint Resistant filter) Also will it be good replacement of GE Profile JVM1790SK one? Thank you very much.

Asked 1 year ago by akluch.

• A:Answer This microwave is not fingerprint resistant stainless steel. We do have model JVM6175YKFS that is fingerprint resistant stainless steel and would be a lovely addition to your kitchen! We'd also like to let you know that all of our 30" over the range microwaves are compatible to replace each other. You will need to use the hardware and brackets that come with your new unit, as they are specific.

Q: QuestionThe food is ready but the microwave is still on………..

Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer We are sorry to hear you are having this issue with your microwave. If your microwave comes on by itself (fan and turntable running), first determine whether it is running and heating or whether just the fan and lights are coming on. We recommend testing the microwave's heating mechanism by placing an ice cube or water (cool or room temperature) into a microwave-safe glass bowl or mug and close the door. Allow the unit to run on its own for 1 minute. If the cube melts or if the water gets warm, the magnetron tube (heating mechanism) is coming on and we recommend unplugging your microwave and reaching out to Bodewell Service by calling 1-833-426-3393 M-F 8:00-8:00 EST.

Asked 1 year ago by Nina.

• A:Answer We appreciate your purchase and your feedback on the design of the door. It is normal for the door not to stop. It doesn't have a door stop. This model has many great features and one of our consumer favorites is the Turntable on/off feature. We can understand how upsetting it can be when a new appliance doesn't meet your expectations and hope the more you use it the more you will like it.

Q: QuestionHi Can this microwave be used as a built in?

Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer This microwave is designed for over-the-range installation and cannot be installed within a closed cabinet or a cut-out space where the bottom is covered. It cannot be installed as a built-in microwave. We recommend checking out model PEB7227ANDD if you are interested in a built-in microwave.

Q: QuestionWhat GE Profile is the best replacement for GE Profile model JVM1640BJ03? Thank you.

Asked 1 year ago by AA.

• A:Answer This model would make a great addition to your home. All 30" Over-the-Range Microwaves are approximately the same width and are designed to fit into a 30" wide cabinet opening. Therefore, any of our current 30" Over-the-Range microwave models will work as a replacement for an existing 30" Over-the-Range microwave model. When replacing an Over-the-Range microwave, the mounting bracket included with the new microwave should be used since the mounting bracket is specific to each model. The new screws, bolts and exhaust adapter should also be used.
