    bought this for my father, he wanted a microwave with a larger interior than the one he had. He loves it, fits everything he wants in to cook, easy to use.

    It performs well, however I believe a few changes in the design would greatly improve this appliance. It would be helpful if the front panel was lit or at least have better contrast for easy selections. The interior lighting is poor and the frame seems to be cheaply made... it seems kind of tinny. The bottom line is this microwave is much more cheaply built than the previous GE microwave that served me well for about 15 years.

    Beautiful replacement for my 20 year old Whirlpool! Larger than I anticipated but ‘fits’ in my space! Having trouble learning to ‘start’ timer-requires 3 or 4 touches before it starts!

    We were limited to a specific smaller size and the GE 1.6 cu ft model met all of our requirements. We have been very satisfied with the unit's operation and cooking abilities.

    I was happy to find this oven that fit my pre- existing space. It works perfectly fine; my only criticism is that the display is very faint and hard to see in daytime light.
