    Got this on early Black Friday, and needed to replace one after my old one lasted for five years. This one have express keys, and build quality seems that it would last a little longer.

    LOVE, my GE microwave oven. Not overwhelmed by Tech terms, buttons to push, or gadgets to add in order for the product to work. Someone designed a product using the old KISS method. IT WORKS GREAT. SORRY GEEKS.

    We’ve had this for about a month and so far it’s worked well. We use it mostly to defrost and reheat items and it does its job. The only thing we don’t like much is the button display. Overall good purchase and happy with it thus far.

    Our new microwave is almost identical to old microwave we had. It looked like it was the same make. The only difference is the color, material and wattage. It works good and it puts out good amount of heat into the foods and liquids.
