Evil Microwave screamed at me and kept food
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The smallest scuffs are extremely notiable on this microwave. What really got me flabbergasted though was the lock feature that was extremely confusing. I have another microwave I was easily able to turn off the lock on, but this one tried to hold my food captive when I was starving. It took two of us to get the microwave to stop screaming lock at me and release my food. Returned immediately, no fault of best buy.

||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this microwave. It's nice and very stylish. The door makes a loud noise when you close and open it so everyone in the house will know you're using it. It heats up well.

I would recommend this to a friendDoor locked feature
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the feature that the door is locked when the job finished, for safety issue I guess. This could avoid little children open the door and/or create accidents.

I would recommend this to a friendSave Your Receipt
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave was great for the price. Until it wasn't. Stopped working within 6 months of purchase. Still under warranty, but GE doesn't do microwave repairs so they offered to reimburse us after we did the following: remove the serial number tag from the inside of the microwave, take a photo of it together with the receipt, email that to them and wait for a "certificate" that we then send them back to them together with a receipt for a newly purchased GE unit. So, while we're in the process of all that, we're without a microwave. Buy a cheap microwave to use in the meantime, return it to Best Buy after purchasing another GE microwave (but not from Best Buy because the price increased by $35), get it home, open the box. Microwave has a big dent in it. Now need to return that one, and so on ...

Microwave Review
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to operate. Good value for the price. Not crazy about the child-proof door.
I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .Thanks for reaching out. The child lock feature can be disabled. 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. To re-enable the child resistant
oven door, repeat steps 1-3 above. The display will display “Loc” to confirm the feature has been re-enabled.
This is over 12" tall
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was too tall for my space. I returned it without using it. I'm sure it works fine.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat but no mute
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great just lacking an important option, the mute for buttons and finish alarm. Literally the only model I can find that’s like that.

Posted .We appreciate you letting us know how important a mute option is to you, as insights like this are valuable for our product team. We're glad to hear your microwave is working well otherwise! Lauren@GEAppliances
