    This GE countertop microwave is a solid performer. It heats food quickly and evenly, and the controls are easy to use. Sleek design fits well in any kitchen. The only downside is it’s a bit louder than expected. Still, great value for the price and very reliable overall. Would recommend!

    Can't go wrong with GE. It's a big and strong microwave. I had an older model which lasted me at least seven years.

    Our 6 year old Whirlpool microwave failed the day before Thanksgiving. This GE microwave fit perfectly in the space. Our only concern is the brightness of the display. The LED's seem dim. We went back to Best Buy to check the display unit. Best Buy would not allow us to plug in the display unit to see what it looked like. Might as well just purchase the unit from Amazon.

    1.6 cu ft microwave heats food quickly and evenly with plenty of space for large plates. However, the door feels a bit flimsy and the fan is louder than expected during use.

    This GE 1.6 Cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave was just the right fit for us. Initially, I purchased a larger microwave that I had to return. It was just too big for the space! But this 1.6 Microwave with Sensor cooking is Amazing. The sensor helps us know when the food is ready, and it has a safety lock to keep you from grabbing food that may be too hot. It is very easy to use.

    This microwaves feature are really cool. I haven’t messed wit them too much but the smart pop sensor is amazing. Perfect popcorn every time. The defrost is great too. If you have kids this microwave has a child lock feature as well. Really good microwave for the price.
