    I installed the microwave by myself and found the instructions a little complicated to understand. The door caught in the upper left corner and I couldn't find any on-line help. Loosening some bolts and screws solved the problem. A back-lighted touch pad would get 5 stars.

    I like the fit and operation on the unit. If I could say anything negative would be that it would be nice if there was just a little backlighting on the control panel buttons so you could see them in the dark.

    This over-the-range microwave is so much better built than its two predecessors in my house. Hopefully, this one’s door handle will not break like the last two other brands before it. Quieter running, and happy to have two level surface light and two speed exhaust fan.

    Works great and was easy to install. Love that it does not have all the overly complicated and unnecessary functions that many microwaves have nowadays. I just want to put in my food, enter the time and hit start, not have to take a programming class just to turn it on.

    It's OK. Enough for what you need from a microwave

    I bought this as a replacement for my 10-year-old GE microwave. It does the basic things you expect from a microwave so no complaints there. Some annoyances but not deal breakers: - The layout of the buttons is terrible... well... not intuitive. It wouldn't matter as much if you could read them in the evening but since they are not backlit, and the letters are gray on top of black, it's very difficult to impossible to distiguish them without turning the light on. So either I have to turn the light on and press the correct button, or you memorize where things are. The microwave light SHOULD be at the bottom of the keypad close to the light that will get turned on... well nope, it's in a random place. The "Add 30-seconds" button is Not the same as the "Start" as my old microwave (which now I know was so much simpler/intuitive).. It's also located at a random place. And opening/closing the door is not smooth. I hope it won't break anytime soon... time will tell. But again, it does the basic functionality that a microwave is supposed to do, so everything else while annoying is not that big of a deal.

    GE Microwave . Works great, just as well as any high cost one in my opinion. It has clean clear lines, large capacity, and is very quiet. Best Buys installation specialists did a perfect job installing, removing the precious one, and fitting this is between cabinets.
