    This microwave fits perfectly on my apartment countertop. It comes with many automatic settings that I use a lot. For other purposes, the instructions are easily understood and simple to use.

    LOUD...MAKES ME NERVOUS

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It’s horribly loud! Makes me nervous. Thinking about returning it. Hate the surface material. Shows every fingerprint and came with stuff on the surface that can’t be cleaned off. Like someone touched it with a chemical and it’s permanently altered. I paid much more than I wanted to because they were out of stock on the $100 one. I feel I paid way too much for one that’s annoyingly loud.

    It worked fine for 2 years but stopped powering on one day. Since it is out of manufacture’s warranty, have no choice but to replace it. I would recommend not going for this one and going for a better quality one instead.

    GE Microwave

    The plug was not made to coexist with my stove or refrigerator plug. I couldn't fit them both into the same outlet. I am confident that GE makes great products because my brother has a refrigerator by them from 1989 and it is still working. I'm sure I would've had the same luck with the microwave, but unfortunately, I never got the opportunity to try it. Who knew that I had to check the plug before purchasing?

    We have not used the microwave yet but upon inspection, the side has a large dent at the top. I'm sure it will still work but durability proves to be low.
