    This product fulfilled its intended purpose, has plenty of power and runs well. Only negative comment is the depth of the product seems to be misstated or at least doesn't account for the depth when plugged into the wall behind the unit.

    We purchased this microwave to replace a vey similar Frigidaire microwave that started sparking inside. The only challenge we've had is getting use to the Start/Cancel button on the opposite side. Ha!

    My microwave of over 15 years finally called it quit, so I purchased this GE and so far I am pleased with it. It has great features and I especially like the reheat method. The only con to this product is no lighting on the panel. It would have been an excellent addition.

    I have had this microwave for 6months now. Overall, I really like it. Works well with the different preset settings for reheating, pizza, etc. However, a few months in, the door now doesn't open correctly. The button mechanism has dislodged internally, causing difficulty in opening the door. Was expecting a little bit better quality in the build.
