    Very nice microwave. Recently it was making very loud noises, but we think it is when turntable glass is unbalanced and trying to rotate. Does not do the loudness all of the time. Otherwise works well.

    We replaced all the kitchen appliances when we bought our house. Ten years later the microwave quit working. I was able to get an exact replacement with Best Buy online. Other local appliance stores could not get this color any more. Thanks Best Buy.

    It has a shortcut I find annoying.I used to hit the three twice for 30 seconds and the five twice for a minute.On this one if you hit the 1 it's a minute but for under a minute it's much more work. I usually set it for at least a minute due to less power than my old one.

    A bit tinny and does not have the control panel backlight we expected. We were told in the store that the unit was not plugged in and this was why it did not have the backlighting. WRONG!

    The first 2 delivered were damage. I have been using the small rival microwave that I bought from Walmart years ago and still working fine. Called best buy they don't repair and the warranty has expired. Told me to call GE. I called GE for a technician to come I have to pay. Now I have to get new microwave plus installation.
