    Nice Microwave for the price. It's a bit hard to open the door because it takes a lot a pressure pushing the button. Our last Microwave lasted 20 years. We hope this one last at least 10 years.

    I had a similar GE microwave (with slightly larger capacity) that I loved. It was generally similar to this GE unit, but this has a couple quirks I don’t like (& I’ll note, I just got it “new” yesterday). The person who commented about the dark buttons was right & I wish I heeded their warning! On black units, GE used dark color lettering on the buttons that make them VERY difficult to read on the black console (even with a flashlight)! Also, opening & closing the door requires a harder push of the button & door (it doesn’t work smoothly like my previous unit) & doing so is quite loud, more than just a closure click. It sort of sounds kind of like clunking something plastic or metallic hard onto a counter. I can’t speak to it’s heating power since it’s new, but thought I’d share my immediate concerns.

    Okay microwave, does the job. Gave it 3 stars because after each use the microwave oven door locks. In order to get access to your food you need to press the cancel button for the lock to disengage. If you have kids or even if you’re not paying attention you will keep pushing on the open door button trying to just open a door only to realize it’s locked and you have to search on the non light keypad for the unlock/cancel button.

      Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts. Its helpful to note that the Child Lock 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. For more details, see page 10 of the Owner’s Manual, which can be viewed at the bottom of the Features tab on the product page of the Best Buy website. Lauren@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

    Open Box Like New Item was probably a Display model as it was packed with turntable and ring inside bouncing around during transit to me. lucky it did not cause damage to heating element inside. some high school kid must have repacked it in original box and put address label on it for FedEx

    I purchased this for my parents since they had their last GE countertop microwave finally die on them almost 10 years later. They really liked the design an apparently the dimensions havent changed by an inch. This is basically hte same microwave they purchased 10 years ago but just updated to be more efficient with power. Would highly recommend
