    Don't Buy! Interior Paint Bubbles and Peels!

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

    Save your money and buy something that will hold up. The interior roof has several large spots where the paint is bubbling and peeling on the protuding points and several smaller spots doing same on the flat portion of the roof after only a few years of limited/normal use.

    GE customer service failed to provide service. I needed a piddly replacement part and was met primarily with deflection tactics. I gave them 3 opportunities and they just couldn't do it. Thankfully I was able to return it.

    After 3 months the turntable/motor starting making a loud noise. I Contacted Best buy, they stated we don't have anybody who can repair the microwave. Why cant they just return the microwave? What a joke! Very disappointed. I will never purchase another thing for best buy again.

    Piece of crap. Bought this Dec 31, so less than 6 weeks ago. Weather freezing so electricity went off. Microwave won't work after electricity restored. Tried circuit breaker, everything, but won't work. Don't have car, can't leave apt, so how am I supposed to return it???

    Junk

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

    Purchased this about 8 months ago. It was my fourth choice as apparently my local Best Buy doesn't stock much and I needed one that day. The unit is loud, heats up the dish and not the contents. Every time I would hit the "1" button for one minute heat, it would trip the breaker. No more GE products for me.

      Hi there,

      We're awfully sorry to hear that the interior of your microwave has peeled and know how aggravating that is to deal with. Peeling paint can be caused by frequently heating items which produce high amounts of steam. If the condensation caused by this steam is not wiped off directly after use it may cause the paint to lift over time resulting in peeling paint. This is not unlike the reaction you would find in bathroom with no ventilation.

      It can also be caused when food or liquid finds itself under the tray and we continue to cook without noticing it. The paint around the spot may then start to peel.

      Note: If there is any metal exposed on the inside of the unit, the unit should not be used. Exposed metal may cause the unit to spark and therefore could be a potential fire hazard. Stay safe. Mike@GEA GE_Appliances

    Not for us

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

    Noise level was too high, protective covering on outer surface was impossible to fully remove and power was not adequate. Stainless finish retained smudges when touched making it look unsanitary.

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

    Bought in Nov. of 2019, daily light use of just heating food of no more than 3 minutes. This month it starts to run after closing the door with cook timer not set yet. As per Google issue maybe with conttol board. Last Sharp microwave this replaced lasted 18 years. Waste of my money.

    Didn’t work right now of the box. When I tried to get help The manufacturer was useless and Best Buy wouldn’t come pick up the unit so I had to bring it back to the store. I ended up buying another brand.

    A year after purchasing the microwave it started turning on whenever I closed the door and cut off at random. A year and a half later, the problem has progressively gotten worse and the microwave is barely useble.
