WORTH THE $109

For $109 it’s pretty good. But like my last one I do not like the touch of the keypad, it’s very stiff.

Works fine but the child proof door is an absolute pain. No point to it and is very irritating

We'd like to provide information on your microwave's Child Resistant Door Operation feature. With this feature, the door will automatically lock every time a cooking cycle starts. This feature can be disabled by following these steps:
1. Press and hold the “7” key for 3-5 seconds or until you hear a beep. Release. 2. Press the “9” key. Release. 3. Press the “0” key. Release.
There will be two short beeps and the display will flash "UnLo" to confirm the default condition has been updated successfully. You can find more information about this feature on pg. 10 of the Owner's Manual.

Dissatisfied with purchase. The metal on the side of the microwave was dented and there was no damage to shipping carton or the box itself. It was sent that way.

I’ve been using this GE countertop microwave for a few weeks and it’s been fantastic. The 1.1 cu ft size is perfect for our kitchen — it fits plates and bowls easily without taking up too much counter space. It heats food quickly and evenly, and the convenience cooking controls make reheating snacks or meals super simple. I also like how quiet it runs and how easy it is to operate, even for family members who aren’t tech-savvy. Overall, it’s a dependable microwave that gives great performance at a good price, and I’d definitely recommend it to others.

Great produce considering low cost. I am very pleased with my purchase. There are easy-to-follow instructions and the childproof lock system is easily unlocked permanently with one step. It is compact but powerful and is sleek looking. Couldn't be more pleased.

Convenience cooking controls make it super easy to use – just press a button for popcorn, pizza, or beverages.
The stainless steel design looks sleek and modern, blending perfectly with my kitchen.
Noise & Functionality:
It’s quiet while running and the door opens and closes smoothly. The digital display is clear and easy to read, and the timer function is a nice bonus.

Small but works

So far so good. Have only had a few weeks. Small footprint. If you're looking for a small microwave for a single plate or reheat a drink this is perfect. If you need to reheat food in larger serving dishes I would look elsewhere. There is enough room for an average dinner plate, but as it rotates the paper towel I typically cover the food with may not rotate 100%, it can get stopped by the walls of the microwave. Reheats fine. Have not tried much else from reheating leftovers. Relatively quiet. Yesterday it did make a noise as it rotated that concerned me a little. Fingers crossed this microwave lasts many years.

My GE - 1.1 cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave is a very nice addition to my kitchen appliances and is certainly one that I use more than nearly all other appliances. It is reliable, large enough for virtually all of my needs, is very simple to use, and it looks AWESOME. What a great design! The stainless steel/black combo is sleek and gives the microwave a rich look that belies its inexpensive selling price.

It's good size for a small space. Quiet. The door feels a little clunky and it's hard to put in a time if you just want 45 seconds. Other than that, works great and a good price.
