      We appreciate your loyalty to our brand, and we'd like to assist with the issue you're having with your microwave not heating. We recommend disconnecting the microwave from power for a couple of minutes before reconnecting, to reset it. Information about what to try when the microwave is running but not heating is available in an article on our GE Appliances website titled "Microwave - Runs But Does Not Heat"; that can be viewed when you look up the title and click the 'Support' tab. Troubleshooting is also available on page 18 of the manual, which can be viewed on our GE Appliances website when you look up the model number, go to the product's page and view the 'Owner Support' section. If you aren't able to solve the issue with troubleshooting, our Bodewell service team is available at 1-833-426-3393, Monday – Friday, 8AM – 8PM ET. A technician would be glad to examine the microwave for any issues. GE_Appliances

    Works fine but hate that fingerprints get everywhere. Soooo annoying. Keypad doesn’t light up at night so that’s also inconvenient. Would not purchase again.

    The microwave works well enough, it's easy to clean. The big issue is the display is cheap and it flickers. Kind of irritating.
