    Love this microwave BUT we bought it again because the first one (Same exact model) kept popping the fuse when you opened the door. Was only 4 years old- bought the same one because the mounting brackets will-of course- be exactly the same so much easier to mount. Everything else on this microwave has been great! Really love the feature of hitting the # and it begins cooking for that length of time - no need to hit Start!

    It is VERY quiet! I bought this as a gift for my parents and after my husband installed it and it was turned on, we all couldn't believe how quiet it was compared to their old one. They love it and are very happy with it!

    Nice looking microwave. The holes for the microwave were just a tad bit off from the holes drilled for our previous GE which was annoying when installing. Otherwise nice product.

    I love this microwave and the size. I only gave it 4 stars as it is very dark and very hard to read the numbers especially at night. No lights come on. Husband said the same thing!

  • Nice Microwave! Expertly Installed

    The microwave was a replacement for my 15 yr old original over my kitchen stove. It looks very similar to my original and fit in the restricted space with only minor adjustments. I was concerned about installation because small differences in bolt locations can make it tough. But it comes with a new wall mounting bracket with paper template for checking hole alignments. That made it a much simpler installation. The multiple speed fan is much quieter than the previous one. The control panel is straight forward and I had no trouble programming it...I am not naturally good at this type thing. It seems to cook significantly more efficiently than the previous one. It rates about 20% less power, but heats water and food in about 20% faster. Wow.

    Nice microwave with good interior size and rotation plate that can be kept on or turned OFF if you have a large plate or pan size that is not too large to fit into microwave but too large to rotate. Fits above stove very nicely even though I have an older home.
