    I bought it under a promo and it was very cheap. It works well; but it runs extra 2/3 sec after the timer is done. Food does not get heated enough for me.

    Malfunctioned the day after the warranty expired

    Literally one day after the one year warranty expired, the microwave started smoking and the burning smell quickly permeated my entire 750 sq.ft apartment. The previous GE we had before this one was also very glitchy and would randomly turn on/start microwaving when no one was anywhere near it/no food was in it. Avoid this model/GE like the plague. They are poorly manufactured.

    Bought this microwave less than a year ago, and today it just stopped working. We had our prior microwave for 9 years. This one only lasted 9 months. Nothing happened, just stopped heating. No one seems to want to do anything about this poor product either. No replacement, no repair. No explanation.

    Worst microwave I’ve had

    Worst microwave I’ve ever had. Heats unevenly and slowly. Takes forever and I’ve had lower wattage microwaves. Also you can’t use the magnetic food covers that you store on the inside of the microwave because the inside roof is not flat.

    It seems to be okay for now, just had to buy it as a replacement because after one year of having the last one it quit working, It should have lasted much longer than a year. So i really did not want the same kind, but that is all the company would cover. Do not recommended purchasing it at all.

    Busted Within 30 Days - Big Hassle

    Pulled too much power from the outlet and blew itself, tripped the circuit breaker. Won't turn on anywhere in the house now. Confirmed it wasn't an electrical issue in our house, another appliance (on the same circuit at the time of the trip) still works fine. GE says this is a "return to vendor" item, so if it's outside the Best Buy return period, you only get a rebate on your next GE unit purchase ... but they advise you to *NOT* buy a new one until you get the rebate certificate, and it comes about 2 weeks after you make the warranty claim. Big hassle for the cheapest model. Looks nice, though.

    It started to slow down and light dimming and then come back from day 1. I’m using it twice a day for 15 sec and every time it makes loud noise and slows down sometimes light goes down too and comes back. I’m extremely unhappy but can’t return it because it’s impossible for me to put it back in the box and move it to my car. Plus it’s hard to see start and stop buttons

    A little smaller than expected and was surprised that it was only 950 watts since it came up under a search for 1100 watts but it looks good and does the job.

    I don’t like that I have to press the “cook time” button before entering the numbers, I should be able to just enter the numbers like most other microwaves allow. I know it’s just one extra button, but still an indication that they didn’t think about the user experience.
