    Wonderful. The 1150 watts was better than old Panasonic 1150 watt. I didn't realize the old one had lost power until I got the new one which makes it faster to accomplish the same thing.

    I purchased this item from Best Buy less than a month ago and this morning, the heating element burnt out and stopped working. Horrendous customer service from Best Buy as they said it was outside of the 15-day return window and my only chance to get my money back was to call GE. I will no longer buy GE microwaves but more importantly, I no longer will buy appliances from Best Buy.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Besides Unnecessary Lock Feature, Microwave Works

    The microwave has worked great so far. I don't give it 5 starts because it has this weird feature in which the door locks after the cycle has finished so you have to click stop in order to unlock it. This is not a very intuitive step and since I have it in my short term rental unit, I feel like people are going to end up breaking it for a feature that is unnecessary.
