    This over the range microwave replaced one from another manufacturer that failed after 6 years of use. This one had all the features that we wanted at a reasonable price. It is attractive and seems to be well made. It meets all of our needs and works well so far.

    The microwave I ordered JVM3160DFWW was correct on the box, The actual microwave was JVM3160DF9WW. The 9 obviously makes the microwave cheaper as it only has one surface light and the display had 2.

      The model number on the microwave itself may include an extra digit, when compared to the model number on the box. This is an engineering digit, and is there in case a technician ever needs to examine the appliance and identify specific manufacturing information. This extra digit does not mean you received the wrong model. If the microwave you received is different than a display you saw and you still believe you received a different unit than what you originally ordered, we recommend contacting Best Buy at 888-237-8289 to address this issue.

    I purchased this microwave to replace my previous one, manufactured by another maker, but in the same price family. This microwave performs the basic functions of heating and defrosting quite well. No frills, no extras, but it gets the job done!

    A solid budget friendly microwave. It may be missing some of the bells and whistles of some more expensive models, but it gets the job done. The glass turntable is remarkably larger than many of the high-end brands.

    Microwave has good power for its size. Aesthetically pleasing and display is easy to use. One annoying feature is that the microwave will ask you to “insert food” again, if you leave food inside and attempt to re-heat it without opening the door.

    This replacement is very cheaply made! Very thin; inside not as deep; inside gets extremely hot when night light is on; missing convenient food cycle recommendations. The only pro is that the price was reasonable.

      We would like to address the issue you're having with your microwave being hot. It is normal for the bottom of the microwave floor to be warm because of the light but not hot. If this is the case, we recommend that you have one of our Bodewell technicians out to asses. Service can be set up via the GE Appliances website or by calling 833-4BODEWELL (833-426-3393) Monday – Friday: 8 a.m. – 8 p.m. ET. GE_Appliances

    my old GE microwave grill burned out at screws and it fell down. I want to replace that Grill but it was costing me around 130 dollars. Instead of replacing the Grill thought I can buy a new one. I saw this microwave in the deal and immediately grabbed it. So far no issues with the microwave. works like a charm
