    Good Unit for my needs

    I had an older unit that just quick working. It was an over-the-range model and I wanted to get one that fit in the same space without having to do a lot of cabinet work. This unit filled the bill. I was able to remove the old unit and install this unit in the same space with no problems. I really like the stainless look. Great unit for my needs.

    This microwave was purchased as a replacement for our previous one. While it was purchased mainly for its dimensions and price, we were pleasantly surprised at how quiet it was and continues to be. The controls are straightforward and easy to use. It is an attractive addition to our kitchen.

    Excellent Microwave

    Excellent microwave, works flawlessly so far. My favorite feature of this microwave is the quick start (press and hold 1 for 1 minute, 2 for 2 minutes, etc.). I had a previous GE Profile Microwave with this quick start feature and having to press multiple buttons to put in a cook time would be too inefficient for me. Make sure to measure dimensions, also chose this microwave as it was most similar in size to previous one and best fit in the space above the range. My only minor complaint about it thus far is my old microwave had a melt function and this one does not. However, I've read can just reduce power level to melt butter, etc. It is true they could improve the backlighting and/or visibility of the keypad, but as long as there is some sort of light on in the kitchen I don't have any issues seeing the buttons on the keypad.

    Bought this range to compliment my oven. It was a challenge for me to install by myself. Other than the installation. It's easy to clean/wipe down. The stainless steal design is sleek. Has an internal light, 2 speed fan. Easy to open and close. The plus side to this product is that it's quiet.

    Reheat does not give adequate instructions on how to reheat. My former GE microwave did. Door sounds tinny when it closes.

      The Reheat feature reheats servings of previously cooked foods or a plate of leftovers. Place the cup of liquid or plate of covered food in the oven. 1. Press the Reheat button up to six times to
      choose the correct selection.
      Press once for a pizza.
      Press twice for vegetables.
      Press three times for a plate of leftovers.
      Press four times for soup.
      Press five times for meat.
      Press six times for pasta.
      2. Press the 1, 2, or 3 pad to select the serving size. For a plate of leftovers, only one servicing size is valid.
      3. Press Start/Pause. If you have additional questions, the online Owner's Manual is available. Click on the "Features" tab and you'll find a link to the manual at the bottom of the page. -Vikki@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

    Never even thought to look at Best Buy for an appliance but when the big box stores had a 4-5 week waiting period for install and your previous microwave blew up you find other avenues. Got it purchased and installed in 5 days, installer was a great guy, knew what he was doing and wasted no time in getting it done, explained everything to me and cleaned up. Love the microwave, good price and nice look

    We had the older version of this same microwave. It is true like others have said about the mounting holes and extension holes being different than the old version. It was still pretty much plug and play as far as the fit. The additional holes in the wall and cabinetry was unwelcome. Looks great and seems more efficient maybe slightly quieter. The biggest difference is the beacon of bright light illuminated for the clock…alas with no dimmer. Least I’ll be able to see what time it is all the way across from the living room. LOL

    Item was in stock and ready for pickup on the date promised. I arrived to pick it up and a BB Team Member asked me to get my vehicle and park near the doors. That person carted the item out and loaded it for me. Unexpected by me but very appreciated. Great customer service.

    I especially appreciate the brightness of the surface light. The keypad is user friendly. The door properly shuts, yet appears to be very lightweight. The power is sufficient. Have appreciated the efficiency of the microwave thus far. Bought the microwave on sale. It was a good deal!

    Consumer reports recommended and a great price point when on sale at Best Buy. Had to remove the old wall frame (also a GE microwave) and install the one with this unit. Quieter than the old unit and more features. No concerns so far. Did the store pick up - went very well.

    Definitely a great brand and value for the price! The options and controls offered are ideal especially one that sets it apart from all other brands...the express cook feature that allows you one touch cooking from 1 to 6 minutes!! That particular feature along with the GE reputation and the sharp looks of the stainless steel on black appearance was the deciding factor in purchasing this microwave!

    Spacious over the range microwave with powerful two speed exhaust fan and adequate lighting. Prefer a push button open vs. a handle, but overall good quality for a great price.
