I would recommend this to a friendGreat Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This GE 1.6 Cu Ft microwave is the perfect size and power. It matches my other GE Profile appliances just fine without the higher price of the actual GE Profile microwave. Best Buy offered a great price and made the purchase quite simple.
I would recommend this to a friendDO NOT PURCHASE
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this item from Best Buy less than a month ago and this morning, the heating element burnt out and stopped working. Horrendous customer service from Best Buy as they said it was outside of the 15-day return window and my only chance to get my money back was to call GE. I will no longer buy GE microwaves but more importantly, I no longer will buy appliances from Best Buy.

Great Microwave

I would recommend this to a friendThrilled with my GE 1.6 Cu.Ft.Countertop Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This GE 1.6 Cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave was just the right fit for us. Initially, I purchased a larger microwave that I had to return. It was just too big for the space! But this 1.6 Microwave with Sensor cooking is Amazing. The sensor helps us know when the food is ready, and it has a safety lock to keep you from grabbing food that may be too hot. It is very easy to use.
I would recommend this to a friendPerfect size for a small countertop space.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave is the perfect size for my countertop. It's powerful for it's size and cooks very fast. It was a good value and I'm glad that I bought to replace my old, worn out one, which was very big and under-powered.
I would recommend this to a friendIt's fine - does the job
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the microwave - good size, works well, hate the child lock. We're retired. I don't need a child lock. There is some process for removing it - need to get the instructions back out. It's fine. It's a microwave. The pick up process was a giant nightmare, but that's pretty Best Buy typical.

Posted .The Child Lock feature can be disabled by following these steps. 1. Press and hold the “7” key for 3-5 seconds or until you hear a beep. Release. 2. Press the “9” key. Release. 3. Press the “0” key. Release. -- There will be two short beeps and the display will flash “UnLo” to confirm the default condition has been updated successfully.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The GE - 1.6 Cuft. Countertop Microwave does a good job cooking foods such as potatoes or warming previously prepared meals. Spills on the bottom or splashes on the sides or top of the oven can be wiped up with a damp cloth. Cooking operation and troubleshooting tips for the oven are easy to follow.
