    Have had this for less than 30 days. Today it just started running. Can't stop it or change functions, the only option is to unplug it. Plugging it back in causes it to just start running again.

    I don't like it. It doesn't warm up food to well and it is really loud. I like how it reminds you that you left something in there with beeps.

    Poor fit & finish

    Maybe I got a lemon but right out of the box the left side of the shroud rattles. It appears there is nothing securing the shroud to the base on that side. The other side has a screw through the middle of the shroud to the base. I'll be returning this for a refund tomorrow.

    I had this for two days and buttons 1-5 stopped working. Took it back and got another and that one burned everything and the buttons were nearly impossible to push. Took that one back and bought a Breveille. Should have bought that to begin with.

    When opening and closing the microwave door, the microwave itself will slide around on the counter because it’s not heavy enough to stay in place. I also found the microwave to be very loud compared to most. I ended up returning this microwave.

    I am very disappointed with the delivery team. Even though it was paid, they refused to install it and left it in the box. This is the third time that I have had problems with installation, I have not even used.

    The GE 1.1 Mid-Size Microwave worked great; no problems for the first 3 weeks; then it kept going out when boiling water. I did everything the same with it from day one; boil water, heat up leftovers, etc... and it keeps getting worse. Now it's past the return, but I'll see if I can exchange it.

    Like the title says this microwave died (with normal usage) less than a year after purchase and g&e will only come out to service if I shell out $150...I'll pass and just buy a different brand of microwave

    Awful, worthless after just 60 days

    60 days after purchasing - the motor goes bad, making loud grinding noise when the turntable turns. And Best Buy won't allow us to return it because it's past a whopping 15 days. That's their warranty, 15 days. So if you want one that works for ~60 days, go for it. Last appliance I ever purchase from Best Buy.

      Hi - We hate to hear about the issue you're having with your GE microwave and can certainly understand why you would be frustrated and disappointed. Your microwave does offer a one-year warranty from GE Appliances. Please refer to Page 15 of your owner's manual for the specific details of your warranty. Kind Regards, Vikki@GEA GE_Appliances
