    We bought this to replace the one that came with the house. We wanted something powerful enough to cook, filter smells, etc. This does the trick. This isn't a reflection on the product itself, but the installation instructions were a little difficult to follow. It took about 2.5 hours from start to finish.

    Purchased this to replace burned out older GE Microwave. It had a high Consumer rating and Best Buy had the best price. I would have rated it a 5 except I had to drill new holes to install it. Instructions for installation and use are straightforward.

    Got 10 years out of my last GE microwave, but hurricane blew water down the roof vent and fried the control board. This one fit perfectly in the same location, but had smaller hanger bolts - scary since it weighs the same. Only wish it had backlight buttons, hard to see unless I turn on all kitchen overhead lights.

    Been using this microwave for nearly a year now and it hasn't given me any issues. It heats as directed and is easy to clean. The door is a little bit loose-fitting and seems fragile to close but it's lasting this far. The price range was budget- friendly. No major complaints here.

    I just bought this stainless version but had the white one of the same model for years. Controls are easy to figure out. Whenever instruction give two cooking times which depend on the power I've never had to use the longer time. Two people better for installing if you a re DIYer. Even if you can handle the weight of the microwave it's too bulky to see the mounting tabs in back .

    I was having a party at the house, And one of my buddies put Queso in the microwave for 10 MINUTES. He must've thought it was a fancy microwave... Little to say it ruined my microwave and he bought me this one! AMAZING PIECE OF WORK. Aerodynamic, Good gravity load. Perfect microwave

      Hello and thank you for writing your review. Oh my goodness! What a mess it must have created when doing Queso that long. We could not have stated any better! Queso Meso. Your friend chose wisely. We appreciate the comment of it being the perfect microwave. Enjoy your future parties. Geoff@GEA GE_Appliances

    After checking the available Microwave at Best Buy we decided to check other places but ended up back at Best Buy because of the atmosphere and friendliness of the sales dept. Besides the price, we liked the style of the GE 1.6 and the easy to understand control system! Now that we have had it for some time, we are very satisfied with it`s performance and convenience!
