I would recommend this to a friendAwful warehouse products!!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awful!! Service in the appliance section was very good. However the microwave must have been in some kind of flood, and sold anyway. The box itself was dry, but inside the plastic wrapping was soaking wet ,and the bottom of the microwave was completely corroded. When we returned it, the person sitting minding the front door laughed, and I was not amused!!!!! I returned the microwave and promptly went to Lowes! This is the 2nd time I have had trouble with an appliance I purchased from you, and I will never do so again.

Posted .Hello funluvncrmnl - this is Nancy at GE. We are sorry to hear that your microwave is louder and harder to clean than your previous microwave. Normally, just wiping the microwave with a soapy wash cloth, and then rinsing and drying well is all that is necessary. The microwave may have a difference in the door noise due to a firmer spring in the door latch; this is a normal condition for the microwave. You can lift up on the latch to feel the tension. I hope this helps! Thanks for providing your feedback!
Purchase different brand. Do your research.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not recommended. Purchased this based on the model in the store, and had it installed. Does not look the same, GE changed the model but use the same sku number. So beware of a purchase based on demo's in the store. The one that came, is cheaper looking and sound like a tin can. I cant give it more than two stars, since I was duped. Do better GE.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendVery good product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very solid microwave. Only minor complaint is the location of the surface light button is less intuitive than I’d like. Harder to find in the dark than it could be.
