    Purchased this over the range microwave to replace our old one that was about 40 years old. This one is quite nice compared to the previous one and does the intended tasks with ease. We are happy with the purchase and would recommend it to anyone.

    This review is for a white GE 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave. The microwave was purchased to replace an 18 year old Frigidaire FMT144G1W3 microwave. The dimensions provided in the advertisement were accurate and the GE microwave fit within the space previously occupied by the old microwave. The new microwave worked after the initial installation and continues to work as advertised. The installation was fairly straightforward. The manual could be clearer, especially as it applies to the installation of the filter.

    My over the range microwave finally gave up, read online it was the dynamometer or something, cost more to replace than microwave was worth. Bought this and it fit perfectly, a little wider, and taller but it fit right in, COUPLE things, it comes WITH the filter for the fan, ad wasn't clear about that and tried to sell a filter for it, don't need the filter, REALLY QUIET, barely makes a sound, more modern and compact ventilation and lighting system.

    The over the range microwave is an excellent product. It looks good and was easy to install. The only thing I didn't like about it is there was no users manual. Since our last microwave was 20 years old this new one has some features we had to learn on our own.

  • Noisy fan won’t go off

    The microwave works fine, the problem is I can’t get the fan to turn off. I read the directions, followed them, but it still goes on every time I use the microwave. It is loud and annoying when not needed. I was thinking of returning it, but installation is too hard, so I’m putting up with the noise.

    • Brand response from GE Answers
      Posted .

      The fan will operate automatically under certain conditions. An automatic fan feature protects the microwave from too much heat rising from the cooktop below it. It automatically turns on at low speed if it senses too much heat. If you have turned the fan on you may find that you cannot turn it off. The fan will automatically turn off when the internal parts are cool. It may stay on for 30 minutes or more after the cooktop and microwave controls are turned off.
