    Looks good. Fairly easy to install if you can get the fans rotated in the correct direction. Lighting is excellent underneath. Exhaust fan is average. Control buttons are dark and difficult to see without adequate lighting. As good or better than comparably priced microwaves. Cooks well.

    I prefer GE appliances and although I was unable to receive everything I initially ordered, I did receive this microwave. It was installed as ventless and is very quiet. I’m very happy with this purchase.

    I’ve had a microwave similar to this one for 10 years, so when I moved and there wasn’t an over the range microwave, I knew I needed to get this one. It works great and does everything I need it to do.

    Needed this model to fit the opening from my older version of this same model. Only issue was that the brackets for the new unit are different than the old so I had to remove old brackets and install new ones. Pain in the butt, but no problems.

    Had the older model and it lasted so long. Had to get a new one only because someone in the house screwed up the door by swinging the door too hard for many years. Great microwave

    Does everything an over the range microwave is supposed to do. Fan moves smoke and odors outside, microwaves food very evenly and the light is more than adequate for cooking.

    GE 3160 1000 watt over-the-range microwave in white. Bought to match the range, refrigerator, and dishwasher. It was on sale, checked 4 competitors and your price matched the lowest found. This unit had a good review in a leading consumer testing magazine. It had enough features and pre-programmed buttons. It works.
