    After researching microwaves endlessly, it's obvious, like most items these days, buying an appliance and having it last is a crap-shoot. This one appeared to have descent reviews over all the rest so we went with it. Purchased on January 1, 2020, today, January 23, 2020 went to heat a cup of coffee and a very bad noise started and it wouldn't heat it. Completely dead. And would you believe it, the return period ended on January 16th. A week to early. What a waste of $180. I love how GE boasts on its website how much of their products are now being mfr'd in the States. Unfortunately, this item isn't one of them. Another great thing about this product is the price decreased by $35 right after we purchased it.
