    Our 6 year old Whirlpool microwave failed the day before Thanksgiving. This GE microwave fit perfectly in the space. Our only concern is the brightness of the display. The LED's seem dim. We went back to Best Buy to check the display unit. Best Buy would not allow us to plug in the display unit to see what it looked like. Might as well just purchase the unit from Amazon.

    The clock could be brighter. If I had known it was all white on the inside I may have purchased a different one.

    This is a good microwave at a good price. I like the controls that it offers. It is quiet and simple to use. First thing I did is turn off the auto-lock "feature", which is on by default. I didn't like that, but I understand why it is there. Happy with this purchase.
