    Overall a good microwave

    This is a great microwave. Just a couple of annoying things. The "buttons" do not light and are VERY hard to read unless you shine a light directly on them. The other thing is the reheat feature. When you use it, you have to select "1" or "2" and then the window with the numbers is just a dash going in circles. No idea what "1" and "2" are doing. Can't find that information anywhere. Both options are way too long, or high power, as the food is dried out and too done to eat. So, I guess just don't use that option. When we want to reheat, we just use cook time of whatever length and power 6. Oh, and the popcorn button actually does a great job. That's a first for us. It is a good size so fits most dishes and platters that we have which is nice too. Overall a good machine, just a couple quirks.

    Nice sized microwave . Not too small and not too large. We needed a microwave for the office as our previous GE took ten years of abuse before it finally quit. This unit works nicely and has child locks as well

    Bought this to replace a 20 yr old large size counter-top GE microwave. Chose GE's mid-size microwave which is urprisingly designed very similarly to my old one. However, the "build" is not as substantial as my old one. This one does have slightly more power and the mid-size works perfectly for my needs. Although the unit was delivered very well factory-packagaged, the small ring that goes under the round glass arrived broken. I was able to glue it together before using the microwave and after a month's use, there's been no problem. I'm satisfied with this GE mid-size microwave primarily because of good size, has 1 thru 6 minute instant-on buttons as well as 30 second button, power, and price.

    This GE 1.6 Cu Ft microwave is the perfect size and power. It matches my other GE Profile appliances just fine without the higher price of the actual GE Profile microwave. Best Buy offered a great price and made the purchase quite simple.

    Powerful yet simple microwave that is a lot quieter that my old one. Glad I went with this size, I have yet to find a plate or platter too big for it.

    This microwave is the perfect size for my countertop. It's powerful for it's size and cooks very fast. It was a good value and I'm glad that I bought to replace my old, worn out one, which was very big and under-powered.

    This is a very nice microwave. It is powerful and simple to use. It is a good value for the money and spacious for your food. The only issue I have with the microwave is that I am unable to silent the beeping when pushing the buttons or when it stops cooking.

    This is a solid microwave that had easy to navigate buttons and has simple instructions. There are good presets and instructions are simple. The only thing to keep in mind is that after the timer or food is done you have to hit the unlock button before pressing the open door.

    So far I am pleased with this model of microwave. The past 2 years I had to return 3 because the turntable motor kept burning out. They apparently did some upgrades and this one seems to be working great.
