    The Over-the-Range Microwave recently purchased at Best Buy truly was a best buy." I give it the highest rating and recommend it to anyone looking for an efficient microwave that fits perfectly over the kitchen range.

    this is one of the nicest undercounter microwaves we have ever purchased. It looks good installed, the range vents work beautifully and the added features are great. The light under the microwave can be dimmed to a night light if you want. The food comes out beautifully done. This is a fine product. I highly recommend it!

    We did not need anything super fancy, but this microwave has enough bells and whistles to suit our needs. Heats and cooks food efficiently. The exhaust fan works well. Great surface light. Love that I can stop the turntable if I want. Also, like the push button to add thirty seconds, if needed.

    This has been a great microwave. We’ve had it about a year. Only reason I’m giving a 4 is because it instantly dented on the front. I honestly don’t even know how. Great product though.

    The reviews can scare you a little, but this microwave is doing great. It replaced an original appliance that had lasted over 20 years. I don't think this one will make it but you never know. Runs quiet, cooks quick and no issues cleaning.

    This microwave oven is just like the oven that died (after eight or ten or twelve years service.) So I have no issues with it. It's just right for us and our kitchen. Besides, I bet it's made in the same factory that makes a bunch of other microwaves.

    All the Features we wanted, Quality = Price

    6 Express cook buttons, Turn table switch, +30 sec, all features we wanted. Reasonable cost for the quality level. Installation took longer than expected due to having to switch the exhaust fan since we had no vent, and one of the screw nuts popped out. Had to remove the oven, find the nut, and figure out how to get it snapped back into place. Don't try to force the mounting bolts to start! They have continued to improve these models. The plastic door frame is more substantial, and hopefully will be less prone to breaking if the door is occasionally slammed. Likewise, the front venting as been removed from view, so greasy grime will not be as visible.

    Bought an open box over the range microwave at a good price. I had to modify the existing wall mount since the microwave did not come with the wall mount. So with that said it took a little more effort but was worth the savings.

    This was a replacement for the exact model that I'd bought several years go. Stuck with the same model so that I wouldn't have to change the mounting plate. Fit like a charm, even the the top screw holes. Very pleased.

    Basic microwave that works like it should. Easy install. The fan is quiet compared to the last two GE overhead microwaves I have owned. I would recommend if you need a good basic over-range microwave.

    Had the older model and it lasted so long. Had to get a new one only because someone in the house screwed up the door by swinging the door too hard for many years. Great microwave
