    I love my new GE microwave! It’s easy to use and it looks nice in my kitchen. I like the features included. The add 30 seconds button and the express 1-5 minutes are very convenient and they were not included in my old microwave. I was lucky enough to buy it on sale which made it a good value.

    Avoid it if you can. Trips breakers and eventually dies. Buy extra warranty! I’ve been through 3 of these and they last couple years at best. The only reason I buy this model is because of not having to drill additional holes in the cabinet. 1) 2018 purchase: this one lasted for 6 months and then spent 3 months in repair (under warranty) and finally died in 2020 Issue one: door switches faulty Issue two: sensors died Issue three: High Voltage transformer died 2) 2016 purchase: door switches died, keypad died 3) 2014 purchase: Turntable motor died, keys stopped working GE space maker: 2000- 2014! Zero issues!

    I replaced my Maytag over stove microwave with this GE microwave. The Maytag had cost me twice as much and broke twice within 2 years, The GE is much quieter and heats more evenly.

    This microwave is a piece of crap. The control panel keeps freezing up. GE sent someone out to repair it and he charged me $125. So much for a warranty. I had it only a couple of months when it failed!!!!

    We have just installed the microwave and it works great. The only issue I have is with the installation instructions. I recommend a 1/16 of an inch gap between the bottom of the cabinet and the microwave hanger rather than flush with the bottom of the cabinet. Also, the diagram to locate the screw holes is misleading as to placing the diagram against the wall. The line that goes against the wall is 1/4 inch in from the outside line on the diagram. The reason is because of the raised imprint on the hanger.
