    This is super easy to install and has a very smooth look. I am glad we chose this model. Great power and not super loud. The exhaust fan is perfect as well. No complaints here on this.

    Unit is exactly same dementions as last GE! Made the overhead instal a breeze! Hope this unit holds up better than the last. It is very probable that last unit had help by being sprayed by an exterminator that destroyed all of our other appliances!

    Paid $179 through pricematch. Was the top rated model in Consumer Reports. Works well, very powerfull - wish the vent fan was more effective - seems my old Samsung did a better job venting.

    This microwave is very quiet. Heats well. Star deducted for the handle. It heats up crazy fast when you use the stovetop below then makes cracking and popping sounds. The handle gets too hot to touch.

  • Perfect Functionally, Not Truly 'Finished' Sides

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Easy touchscreen design with a quick start - you only have to push the number 1, and the microwave immediately starts. No need to pysh a start button. Only issue is that I needed one with a finished sides. Well, the finished side is really not as the BB agent described. It's not really designed to be exposed on a side, which is what I needed and asked for. But it had to be installed that day, so I am stuck with it.

    We’ve owned a GE microwave for years and when it wore out we decided to purchase the same unit. But this new updated unit is even better. More power and more accurate cooking.
