Posted .We are so pleased to hear your new microwave is cooking well for you and you were happy with eh price point. The 30 seconds button is a consumer favorite feature because you can press it multiple times to add time. It is very convenient.

Review of microwave!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave is powerful and has been a big help in heating up my leftovers.
I would recommend this to a friend Had to return/exchange 3 defective ones
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this microwave to replace the GE we had for 14 years. Unfortunately, I had to return 2 of them for being defective, and after 2 months, I’ve found this third one is also defective. The first one’s motor went out and door locked within a week of use. The second one got louder and louder to the point of us being afraid to use it. This third one has a broken seal in the door, which we didnt kniw until we heated up a beverage and moisture showed up between the glass/plastic of the door’s window. This makes me concerned about the health effects from standing near it while in use. GE used to sell reliable products. I don’t know if they cut back too much on quality parts, or not hiring the right people as engineers, quality control testers, etc. but it would be nice if they went back to making top quality products that lasted.

DO NOT PURCHASE
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

I would recommend this to a friendIt Does Its Job
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does its job. Multiple buttons for quick heating. ie: reheat an item or bring a hot beverage back up to temperature in 1 button; cook for up to 6 minutes with 1 button. Heats very quickly. Only small negative, while it fits tall items, it's narrower than my previous 1.6 CuFt microwave. And, got a good price as Best Buy had it as an open box sale.
