    I bought this for my mother in law. She tells me it works great. She first had trouble reading the numbers, but she's 85. :)

      This isn't the type of experience we want for our customers. If you still have the microwave, please utilize your warranty to get this situation taken care of. Information on how to do so can be found on page 15 in your use and care manual. GE_Appliances

    I bought this because the carousel stopped turning on the same model that I bought elsewhere after 2 months. Why did I buy the same model again? Other reviews were good and I thought I would take a chance for < $100. So far, so good but it's only been a month with this one. It looks great and works well - hope it lasts.

    I bought this GE MicrowaveAugust 30th and less then 20 days of use we started to hear loud noise from the microwave while warming the food. At first we thought it was coming from the traffic noise like Semi breaking. It was that loud. Called GE for assistance, after 2 hours back & forth I decided to return it to Best Buy because GE could not get me refund nor they could fix the problem. They said they do not have part to repair. I would not suggest buying this product at all. Poor Customer Service from GE.

We truly value you as a customer and hope that you will give us the opportunity to earn your trust back in the future. -Chris@GEA GE_Appliances

    Noisiest microwave I have ever had. The turntable is where the noise was coming from. After two and a half months it was not heating my coffee very good at all. What once took 30 seconds now was taking 90 seconds. Best Buy would not exchange or take it back. Manager said that I was a day late for returning it.

    This microwave is very loud, the keypad and digital display on my 14 year old sharp microwave stopped working properly, so opt to buy this model, and WOOOW! this is loud, apparently I'm not the only one that thinks so, I read ALLOTT of other reviews that say the same thing. also not as attractive in person as it is in the picture. Returning, now the problem is that all Best buy stores I called are closed. And I'm not paying to ship something back that is defective, I believe the ""magnetron"" is defective or becoming defective as I've operated about 5 microwaves, and "NONE" sounded like this....
