    Great product. This microwave oven replaced a very similar one from GE that had many years on it. This one performs as well or better, and is much quieter.

    This is my 4th purchased of a GE microwave in 20 years. I originally bought one in 1999. Like it so much I bought a second one for the basement. Over the years these fail. The longest 9 years, shortest 4 years. This one is 2 years old. I like this better than all of the rest. It is more powerful, little more of a bass sound and not as high pitch. It has a feature that you can cook any where from 30 seconds to 6 minutes and 30 second using 30 second increments by pushing only 1 more 2 buttons. Rewarm coffee and make a tea, I only have to push 1 button! Cleans easily and no rust.

    The microwave itself is awesome. It cooks well, almost too well very fast. However if something goes wrong, however minor, the price of having it looked at is not worth having it looked at. I paid almost $300 for it with shipping and on a payment plan last July. it seems to have blown a fuse. To even have someone at Best Buy check that it will cost me $99 to even bring it to someone and then $10-$15 if it's a fuse. $115 to have it fixed. I think that's completely ridiculous

      We are pleased to hear you feel the microwave itself is awesome. However, we can understand how upsetting it can be when an appliance fails. This model doesn't have servicing parts and cannot be serviced if it fails. If you are still having issues with your microwave, please reach out to us via a private message on GE Appliances social media like Facebook or X and include a copy of this review, your model and serial number, address, email and phone number.

    Great product. Compact, with a lot of power. Looks really nice, inside and out. Easy to clean, can select time with the door open or closed, can also add incremental time with ease. Loved the purchase

    This 1150-watt microwave oven heats the food up quickly and evenly. I use it primarily to heat up frozen dinners, cans of pasta, soup, chili, pork & beans, and to thaw packages of frozen fruit. I also occasionally use it to warm up an item that was refrigerated such as a chocolate brownie or lemon bar or to cook some instant oatmeal. Tonight, I used it to reheat a refrigerated chicken parmigiana hero sandwich. My housekeeper washes the glass turntable and she sponges the oven's interior and exterior once a week with a solution of liquid dishwashing soap and water.

    This microwave is quite easy to use - very intuitive. I really like the add 30 second option as well as the Express Cook feature. It certainly is good value for the cost.

    like the interior size especially. For a microwave that is not extra large, but fairly high wattage- 1150- has a very large interior, even large enough for one of my 9x13 pans. This interior width is not easy to find in that size. Very excited to have this option. Many do have the express minute buttons, but enjoy having both this and where you can enter time.

    I went to Best Buy shopping for a new microwave and found this one. The sales associate did a price match for me and found it about $20 less at another store and he met their price. Easy to use and very quiet!

    Works great, well priced and fits exactly in the designated spot under the cabinet. Great replacement for the more expensive model that the home builder used, that broke after two years.
