    I ordered this microwave as a gift for my daughter. Fedex notified me that it was on the truck to be delivered for 3 days before it was finally delivered on the 4th day. This is a problem for someone who has to rearrange schedules to be home for a delivery. The microwave looked great but worked for only 1 day before it quit. It will be returned. I usually have a good experience with Best Buy, but this time was definitely not good.

    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.

    Picked it up in the store, and brought it home. The door is loose, we are afraid to use it. Take it back, and look at the display model, door is fine on the display model. Get a second identical model and bring it home, door is loose on it as well. Taking it back. Our first applicance purchase at BestBuy, and probably our last.

    Buttons are hard to push. Instructions on how to use different functions are unclear. I still can’t figure out to to use some functions or why key pad is laid out the way it is.

    This purchase was a replacement for a preceding GE model. Measured dimensions were slightly understated. GE reduced the power from 1100 watts to 950 watts between models.

    The microwave looks nice and it seems to work well, but it is uneven because one of the legs are (somehow) shorter than the other three. I would’ve recommend if it wasn’t for the defect.

    Bought this GE microwave and it worked fine until this morning. The website says we have 15 days to return. We are at 36 days and very unhappy at this point. Odd noises that just started, sounds like it is grinding and vibrating inside. My wife doesn't want to go near it.
