    Pros: the unit heats things up very quickly, has good functionality like the ‘+30 seconds’, and has 2 exterior lights underneath for better lighting. Cons: is noisier than my previous one and the exterior lights get very, very hot.

    We selected this microwave because it was replacing the same basic type, therefore it required less work to install. It works well, and the 30 second timer is convenient. A nice new feature is that it will not allow you to accidentally start cooking if you wanted the timer, not the cooking time, without first opening the door.

    Our previous microwave died (after 13 years) so we selected this GE model as a replacement, mainly because of immediate availability. So far, we are very pleased with it. I do like the "express cook" 1-minute increments, + the add 30 seconds feature.
