I would recommend this to a friendMakes cold items warm or hot
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When started, light goes on and plate spins. Food changes from cold to heated. It does what a microwave should do. Time will tell if it is a quality machine. Until then, I will use daily to heat things up.

Faulty out of the box
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Microwave made a rattling noise everytime it started cold, not sure if it was the motor or the fan. It was faulty out of the box, but BB cust service was super nice and ordered replacement and had it delivered within 2 days. Installed the new microwave and so far its working as expected. Fingers crossed. I bought Geek squad warranty in case there are additional issues.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had trouble getting it to function. Called Best and had no help. Very frustrating. Then called Westinghouse and got an answer.
I would recommend this to a friendOverall good microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.High power so works well. Only complaint is the plug in on the back of the unit is large so you need to keep unit away from the wall quite a distance.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat microwave.

Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since I was little, General Electric has been part of my life since my grandmother, my mother and now in my home there have always been items of this brand. This microwave so far has worked perfectly under constant daily use. I recommend it.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed to replace an older GE over-range microwave and this is everything I was hoping to find! Similar to the old GE, but more wattage. Most of the controls are similarly placed. It's just perfect!
