    Took two tries, but this one is a winner

    Second time was the charm. We needed a new microwave and of course were limited by what would 'fit' in the space. So we selected this one, as we have had GE in the past (and once you get used to the user interface, best to stick with it)...the first one we brought home had an issue, fogging in between the glass panes- yikes! So back it went and the second one is fine. We like it, it's much quieter then the one it replaced, and we like the sleek look. Disappointing quality control, but the return process at Best Buy is so easy! That's why we bought it here and not on Amazon! Can't beat the ease of a very quick exchange.

    Works great, especially from our old microwave. We like the 30 second quickie for a quick fix. The timer and defrost work very well on this microwave. It is real easy to keep clean, and love the black outside with silver lining. It is just the right size for almost everything.

    This microwave replaced a GE microwave we had for over 15 years. It takes up less room on the countertop but can hold more inside. Our large, square, Noritake plates can oven spin in this one. It seems to heat the food evenly and is pretty quiet. Had it a few months and no problems so far. Hoping it will last as long as the old one.

    We have been without a microwave in our apartment for almost two years, so this past Black Friday, we decided it was time to treat ourselves (lol!). This microwave was decently priced, and works perfectly. It definitely runs on the hotter side, so most things heat up within a minute. I have no complaints!

    Great Microwave Oven

    Folks, this is a very nice microwave oven, and well worth the price. Actually, it’s our second purchase in a couple of months (the latter one given as a gift to a family member). Our previous microwave was much larger in oven capacity, but we wanted to downsize a wee bit. The new one has a lot of easy to use features and is very streamlined in appearance. You definitely can not go wrong purchasing this one.

    I haven't had a microwave since my old one quit working over 10 years ago. I was impressed with the reviews of this microwave. I thought it was a good value for the cost. I've not been disappointed. It has several helpful features, including the bell that rings every minute to alert me that I still have something in the microwave. It's also very easy to clean!

    If you don't have an above-stove mounted microwave, this is a great portable microwave with plenty of room for individual and family dishes. It fits comfortably on most kitchen counters. The stainless steel enclosure blends in well with most kitchen appliances. Very easy to use control panel with pre-cook settings.

    We love this microwave as it has great features and is so quiet when running. Great value for all you get. The only negative is that the control panel is black and not backlit so it is kind of hard to see the buttons unless you have a bright light on it.

    This microwave allows one to adjust the time and temperature with ease. The design matches the kitchen and has been a time saver when cooking. It is affordable, useful, and multifunctional. From popcorn to quesadillas, you name it, and this microwave works wonders! I highly recommend it as a gift.

    We bought this microwave to replace an in-cabinet one. Make sure you measure before purchasing but this one fit perfect and we have had it over a year now and it has been a GREAT microwave. No issues at all and for such a great price. It has a sleek stainless steel appearance. I would recommend for purchase.

    Needed a microwave that was easy to use for my Dad’s new senior apartment - this fit the counter space perfectly and was easy for him to use. The push pad was simple and easy for him to engage with arthritic hands.

    Excellent compact microwave

    We love this microwave. Our old one was enormous and 1200+ watts and it was just too much, too big and too powerful. This feels perfect, it's compact so you don't have this monstrosity sitting on your counter, but still reheats your food quickly. I will say I wish it used a time cook instead of express time. When you hit the 1 button it starts up the microwave immediately with the time set to 1 minute. My personal preference is to actually enter the time I want to cook. It does have an option to add 30 seconds at a time with a single button push so that helps a lot. This is more of a personal preference though and I would choose this one again in a heartbeat even like this.

    A simple but efficient product. I’m not a fan of all the fancy microwaves with a million settings I’ll never use, so the microwave is perfect for me. It has the basic settings, is user friendly, and gets the job done. It’s not too loud and the buzzer telling me is done isn’t obnoxious. The food always comes out warmed completely and is easy to clean.

    Ihad the previous model and it worked well for many years. This updated version is of stainless steel and adds a few extra features. Just by pushing the start button, it gives you a thirty second heater. There are also keys for Beverage, Pizza , reheat and a couple others.

    Was very happy with the appearance, functions and size of this microwave. Aside from the noisy door latch which is the case with most microwaves in this price range, and a screw missing to hold the stainless steel cover on one corner, we were very pleased with the unit. Four months into use, the unit would not shut off at the end of the allotted time. The fan continued to run, the door would not open, and the control panel functions were unresponsive, so we pulled the plug. After a few minutes, re-plugged in, reset the clock and everything was working fine again. For five months all was well until another run-on occurred. The GE Service people were surprisingly pleasant and helpful with information on warranty replacement. The replacement process was a bit of hassle sending proof of cut off plug end; and it was inconvenient being without a microwave until we received the approval to purchase a new GE replacement a week later. Overall, the microwave looked and ran nice but lacked quality internally. Luckily it failed before the year was up. Replaced it with another GE, different model.
