I would recommend this to a friendWorks well, but there is an issue to be aware of
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is our second JVM3160RFSS. The first one died after 4 years - The fuse blew; replacement fuses blew, and then the breaker started tripping. Reading online, there is an issue with the door. With this one, we purchased the 5 year warranty, and now press pause, before opening the door, if the oven is still on. So far so good, after two months. We'll see what happens...
No, I would not recommend this to a friendHappy with this microwave!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great! Fan is loud, but I rarely need it. Cooks popcorn great! My old countertop microwave would burn it before it was all popped. Auto defrost is a bit strong, tends to "cook" the food a bit.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my new microwave. The lighted features are bright and easy to read. I don't understand why the handle is not one smooth piece. The seem in the handle is going to be hard to keep clean.
I would recommend this to a friendNice microwave to replace old one

I would recommend this to a friendDoes the job
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It took me a few months to get this installed but it's performing as expected. No issues to date, everything works as it should. Operation is straightforward. 1 touch express cook is nice feature. Seems to vent from the stovetop w/o issue, 2 speed fan is nice.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the new microwave, it seems a little louder than the old one but I’m getting used to it.
I would recommend this to a friendReplaced 16 yr old GE microwave
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My last microwave kept on going. Pieces around it just kept breaking and was beyond repair. Plus it lost that nice white look. So far this microwave is every bit as good. We had it installed and was worth the service thru Best Buy.
I would recommend this to a friendExcellent Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Microwave is great. Installation took a while but that's because i tried to install it on my own. The only complain i have is that the manufacturers instructions weren't very clear for one step. The accessories provided were optional for my model.
I would recommend this to a friendPerfect!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just needed a basic microwave and if it lasts 20 years like the last one (similar model ) we'll be thrilled. Note this model, 3bb, has a different grill that makes it difficult to install.the charcoal filter. But the GE repair man figured it out!!
I would recommend this to a friendGE over the range microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Working as it should. Seems to be a good microwave. Time will tell.
I would recommend this to a friendalmost as good as out last one
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only thing we don't like is that the buttons on the unit do not light up. If the overhead lights are not on, you cannot see the buttons. This unit would be very difficult for some people to use.
I would recommend this to a friendWorks great and fit perfect in the spot required
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only downside to this is the night light didn’t have a timer on it to turn the light on and off at a certain time of day. The larger area to microwave is very nice change.
