    Dorm Perfect

    I purchased this as a dorm room gift for my grandaughter. Her college requires low wattage, so it is perfect for her! During her first week, major hurricane rains kept her room bound, but thanks to her new microwave, both she and her roommate had hot meals!!

    I bought this microwave for my daughter's dorm. The max wattage allowed was 800 so we knew it wasn't going to be powerful. We unboxed it in her dorm room and the plastic spinner came broken. Luckily, it still spins, but it stinks since it was brand new out of the box. Since she moved in 3 weeks after we purchased the microwave, we couldn't return it. It serves it's purpose. I wish I bought a cheaper microwave.

    Smaller than my previous microwave . Used mostly for warming leftovers and thawing frozen items .Seems to take slightly longer than my previous microwave however, this is not a problem.

    Fits a dinner place but not a tall mixing bowl. Works well but has no backlit keys so hard to program if it’s in a microwave cabinet or dark kitchen late at night.

    I was so excited to purchase a small countertop microwave and this was exactly what I was looking for. It began holding moisture and forming mold. Also has a burn mark down the inside. I don’t really use the microwave for anything other than reheating for a minute or so so I’m unsure why it’s so unsafe. Very disappointed.

    This microwave looked great and was as described. After 2 weeks of use the button to open the microwave has stopped functioning properly. I’m outside of return window so I’m disappointed that it only worked for a short time.

      Hi, thanks for leaving a review. We're incredibly sorry your Compact Microwave is having issues after just 2 weeks. It's always exciting to get a new appliance, but when it fails unexpectedly it's quite disheartening. You deserve to have durable, high-quality appliances and a positive experience with GE products. With that being said, we will continue to work and improve this model. Thank you for your patience.

    The microwave works well but after using a big...i.e. regular size microwaze I find that it is too small for my needs. I will probably donate this one to a charity.

    Love the insert "Food" reminder message and the reminder beeping that occurs after food has been cooked. I thought nothing could beat my Kenmore of 15 years, but, after a few months this GE has possibilities. Also home delivery was fast.

    Listed Turntable Diameter is Incorrect

    This looks like a great product, but I did not even plug it in because it does not meet the specifications that are listed for it. The specs say that it has a 10 3/4 inch turntable. That would work well with one of our dinner plates. However, the diameter is at least an inch smaller. Best Buy is probably getting the info from GE, which has the wrong data on their site about this product. It is frustrating to look at several candidate items, and select one based on the published specs, and then find that the specs were wrong.
