Built In Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice product. Fits well as a built in microwave and still big enough for large plate/bowl.

GE SpaceMaker Replacement
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old GE Profile SpaceMaker microwave oven finally gave out after a decade of regular use. I bought this model to replace the old one. It’s a great update to he older version that had fewer control options and no turntable. I like the updated sensor cooking. My only issue was that the under cabinet mounting holes did line up with the decade older version which forced me to drill new holes in the bottom of the cabinet and the old mounting hardware that I was able to reuse.

Replacing a 40 year old Microwave.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is a nice functional Microwave. It is smaller than the one I had for years but sizes change over time and this is the largest one I could get for the space.

Nice Microwave, but not a Direct Replacement
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Microwave works as it should so far without issue. For a "direct replacement" though, it's dimensions are not exactly that of its predecessor, thereby requiring a new trim kit. For a model that is built-in, it is only half the equation. For another $200 and lengthy backorder times, it might be worth looking at a different product.

Awesome Space Saver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We just downsized to a smaller home, there was no cabinet above the built in stove so we could not get an over the range microwave. We also did not want to take up valuable counter space with a counter top microwave. We purchased this low profile under the cabinet microwave which is 24" long and attaches to the underside. Perfect for what we needed, and enough space inside just like most larger microwaves. Had it installed by Best Buy. Hassle Free.

It’s OK
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seemingly hasn’t changed in twenty years….which on one hand was great in that it fit the built in space but price has gone up, weighs a lot less (more plastic) and really doesn’t do anything new or better than the one that died. If you are not constrained by space there are microwaves with more features, more interior space for less money.

Used two months and then went Dark
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really liked the Microwave, updated design. Glass tray is smaller as new door design protrudes into the interior. Need this low profile as hangs under kitchen cabinet. Two months into purchase was reheating food and then microwave went dark/no power. Looking to return to Best Buy for replacement.

Pre owned Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great deal. Microwave was an open box purchase - the microwave is slim so it does not take a lot of space on my counter - but large on the inside for warming up bigger items. Very spacious without taking up too much space.

Reliable and compact
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had to replace a 2005 version of this GE Profile, under- the- counter microwave oven. While we like the microwave, the installation took much longer than anticipated due to slight changes in the mounting lay-out. It is not a cheap microwave, and we hope it has the same longevity as the last one.

Great under the cabinet microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this microwave to replace an older GE Model that was installed underneath my cabinet and it fits perfectly. As other reviewers noted, they did change the location of the mounting screws, but all it took was a quick trip to home depot to find some new mounting hardware for a few dollar to get the job done. It's so quiet I can barely notice that it's running and it is quite spacious inside, despite being only cabinet depth. A great option for anyone who wants to save counter-space and doesn't have enough room for an over-the-stove microwave. Also, the slate color blends nicely with all my new Black Stainless appliances.

Excellent Unit for Reheating
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased this unit to replace our old Spacesaver model. We use it for reheating only as we also have a Advantium unit. The PEM31SFSS slid right in the cabinet space of the old unit and looks a lot better. This compact microwave is the perfect size for what we need it for - reheating.
