    This microwave is very quiet, runs great, and easy to use. The cost of the unit was reasonable. Very glad to have it.

    My 8 year old microwave just up and quit one day, so I went to Best Buy to look at what they had in stock. I also took a quick moment to read some reviews of some of the available microwaves. Decided on this GE microwave, both for its simplicity of features and offering just what I needed, not a lot of bells and whistles that I did not need or want. It works great. Straightforward operation, and nice design. I find it a great value for the money.

    I had an over the oven microwave and found this one to be almost an exact model, but smaller to fit inside a cabinet. I was thrilled. So easy to use and works great.

    This is a good size and the stainless steel and black finish look very stylish - easy to use - auto rotates and the rotating plate sits firmly and doesn't jiggle when turning. I've only had it a few weeks, but so far, I'm pleased. I actually purchased two and used them to replace my original ones from 28 years ago. Only negative is that I had hoped to be able to add a trim kit - but despite extensive research, was not able to find a matching one. Best Buy was wonderful to work with.

    I was replacing an older model GE counter top Microwave of 11 watts that i had for a very long time and I was looking fro a similar model in features and size in the GE Brand. This new unit was slightly larger in power 1150 watts but about the same dimensions. I have had the new unit about a month and so far I am very happy with my purchase. It has all the features I wanted at an excellent price point at Best Buy. I purchased this unit online and had it delivered the same day by Roadie Delivery Service at no extra cost. The timer on the MW is nice and bright but I really would like if the functions on the key pad were illuminated so the keypad would be easier to see and select when using at night or in lower light conditions. Overall so far I am very happy with the GE Brand and model selected, it is relatively quiet and does the job. I purchased this unit online at Best Buy. I had not shopped at BB for some time and was unsure of the quality of their service especially with the ongoing COVID issues. I found Best Buy service impressive. I purchased the unit about noon and I had it delivered in about 6 hours, way beyond my expectations. I am very happy with my purchase, at a good price point and very impressed by Best Buy and its customer service and performance. I will definitely be a repeat customer.

    I reviewed a lot of microwaves before deciding on this GE model and I'm so pleased with my choice. It's about the same size as my old one but it heats much faster, and it's so easy to operate. Some reviews stated that it's loud but I don't find it to be so. Overall I made a great choice, the price was good and I was able to order online and pick up in the store, what's not to like about that!

    With limited counter top space a consideration, this is the best unit I could come up with. My last MW was 1200 wt and this one is 1250, now 1.6 CF compared to 1.2 CF. Button-ology is pretty straightforward. I especially like the "+30 sec." button if you need to zap something just a little longer. Only time will tell if it stands up to the quality and lifespan associated with the well known GE brand.

    I was pleasantly surprised by this microwave. I was replacing a Kenmore that I had for years. I was looking for style and specific size and not very expensive. Ordered this one on line. It arrived before the expected delivery date- easy to use and surprisingly quiet. Seems to be a little more powerful than my previous one, but I now know to adjust the time. Extremely happy with my purchase.

    This microwave is highly efficient and quiet. It heats my food evenly and is a great little microwave oven. I very much like the price and it is very comparable in price and function as my last microwave which was a panasonic and broke easily.

    Very Good Useful Size Micro with Some Nuisances

    Overall, this is a very good microwave. We've had it for several months with no issues. The size is very good and capable of handling all our microwavable cookware. My biggest complaint is the keypad. First, it isn't as sensitive as I'd like and requires a fair amount of pressure. Sometimes, I need to press twice to get an input. Second is the keypad layout. It isn't logical. Keys one would need to use in sequence aren't together and one needs to look closely where to press next. For instance, after entering cook time, you would think the power level button would be nearby? It isn't. It's across the keypad and if not careful, it's easy to screw up. Obviously, GE engineers never actually used their own product.

    Good size for a typical family - will fit dinner-sized plates and cooking bowls. Easy to use and heats quickly. I do wish I could enter specific cooking times more easily - when you press a number, you get that many minutes by default.

    This microwave is easy to use. It is not too heavy, and the stainless steel exterior goes great if you have other appliances of this type in your kitchen. It is pretty powerful, at 1150 watts. Things heat up very quickly, and I was able to quickly get a sense of what items need warmed out what settings. You get in easy to use microwave at an affordable price.

    This microwave is great! It isn't the highest wattage on the market but it heats things quickly with no issues. My previous microwave was a higher wattage but wasn't nearly as good as this one. Also it isn't a giant microwave so I'm left with more counter space to utilize.
