    Very powerful microwave. Has worked well. Easy touch buttons are cool (touch 1 for one minute touch 2 for two minutes etc.) Only complaint is the door doesn't open as wide as I would like. Good micro though.

    This is by far the best Microwave I've owned. The preset programs are almost perfect. Want a baked potato put one in and hit the preset. Reheat leftovers put it in hit the preset then the serving size. I couldn't be happier.

    Looks great. I like that the light stays on when door is opened. Cooks popcorn great. Don’t like that there seems to be no pause and resume. When you stop the timer resets to 0.

    I purchased this microwave after reviewing Consumer Reports ratings. It replaced a KitchenAid that lasted 19 years! It works great, has plenty of features, is quiet and has a large turntable. Plus it was very reasonably priced.

    This microwave exceeded our expectations. Microwave is very easy to use and appears to heat food as well as or better than a microwve with more wattage. Will look at other GE products in future as need arises.

    This is the least expensive microwave we've had since we moved into our house. The two previous microwaves were from high end brands. Neither lasted very long but this unit seems very well built and very quiet.
