    I loved everything about this microwave. However it stopped working after only 5 months. GE was extremely hard to deal with and it took a very long time to resolve this. They didn’t sound one bit surprised by the very short life of their product. I was given a certificate to replace it with the same model. It lasted 1 1/2 yrs. Fortunately I bought the Best Buy warranty. So beware!

    When I needed to replace my malfunctioning microwave I tried to buy the exact same GE part number but it was not available. I have a limited space so I had to stay with a similar external size. This unit seems to be the newer version of the the one it replaced. It is not as nice. Lighter, cheaper, louder and does not have some operating features the old one had. For instance, the power level can not be changed while the unit is running. Overall this unit works fine but I am a little dissapointed with it.

    This microwave does exactly what it says it will do. The design is sleek, all black! It is powerful and reliable. Hopefully it lasts long, which would make it worth the price.

    Unfortunately this gift for my daughter was not usable. It arrived badly damaged and will be returned. I'm sure GE is normally good quality but whoever packed or shipped it should be more careful!

    Lasted A Year and a Half

    After just a year and a half, I am having to replace this microwave. After removing food and closing the door, the microwave turned itself back on, but only the current clock time was showing. It would not shut off with the cancel button...only by opening the door. This happened numerous times and then the lights started flickering a lot. I decided it wasn't worth risking burning the house down if it turned itself on unattended. I read in other reviews of this same product that I am not the only one this happened to. Dangerous. Do not purchase.

    Ended up returning as it was not as large as we needed. Microwave looked high quality though with nice finish. If it were a bit bigger I would have kept it.

    We started out liking this microwave...it worked well etc. After a couple of months we started to notice a "burning or electrical" smell so we returned it for another.....SAME thing happened with the new one! My advice would be to buy a different brand....we did!

    Purchased microwave from Best Buy online and picked it up from the store on March 6th. On June 6th, it turned off about halfway through heating up my lunch. It was not the outlet (circuit breaker not flipped, and tested outlet with inductive voltage tool to confirm outlet was still functional). It just stopped working after exactly 3 months.
