Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice and quiet microwave. The only issue is you need to use a soft cloth to clean. Surface scratch easy.
I would recommend this to a friendInstallation is a nightmare
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one of the worst things I have ever tried to install in my life. Im sure the microwave is fine, but the installation is a nightmare. I would rather kill myself than ever have to deal with this again.

||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don’t understand why California gets all the crap models but this one is neutered with all the idiot features. You can’t turn off the beeping and mute this microwave.

dissapointed
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased my second GE - 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave because I had a very good experience with the first and it lasted 4 years with no issues until a power surge fried it. My second purchase only has 6 months of service and already has started making very strange and scary noises in the time that we have used it.

Second one in less than 2 years
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First microwave died after a year and 3 months. Purchased a replacement because I did not want to deal with new brackets. Hopefully, this unit will last longer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDied After 2 Years
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave completely died...right after the 2-year mark. So, we basically paid $200/year to use this piece of junk. What a waste of money. We will never buy a GE product again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendOpen box is really smash and dent, damaged produc.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't buy open box. Bought a supposed "like new", open box microwave. Found out after installation was started that the bottom was smashed like a soda can. This GE microwave is made of paper thin sheet metal. Huge hassle to save 50 dollars. Wasn't worth it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendMicrowave Installation Is Lacking
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the microwave on May 10, 2020 and picked it up at the store. I requested installation and on the day I was to meet at the store to schedule an installation date, the appointment was cancelled. Went to the store and was told to call the Geek Squad to set an installation date. I did. It was scheduled for June. No one called or came. So On June 30, 2020 I have an unopened microwave sitting on the kitchen floor.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendAfter 7 months, it quit heating.
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have only had this product for 7 months and it has stopped heating. Have tried everything and now it’s too late to return. We paid more than $300 for it and now it’s $233
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot as good as I thought.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave went out 2 months 6 days after purchase. of course the warranty was for 1 year. I was very disappointed that I have to pay 109.00 plus parts and labor to have it repaired. Says it was made in 2020 amazing to me it broke down in 2021. I thought GE was a good brand. : )
