    I like the microwave but the clock on it isn't very good, but it does the job so I won't complain about the clock. Other than that it is a very descent basic microwave.

    This is my second unit. First one lasted over five years. Easy to install. Easy to operate. This was first time I used curbside pickup, it was quick 5 minutes and I was out of there.

    The entire process from purchase to install was really seamless. The sales person was helpful without being pushy, and the install team did a great job including cleanup. The microwave works as advertised.

    GE is not what it used to be. Microwave having keypad issues, can not use. Our GE dishwasher also is making loud buzzing noise and occasional clicking noise. Both 2 years old. Both flimsy and cheaply built. Be very cautious.

      If you have not already done so, we recommend disconnecting the power to the microwave for 2-3 minutes to reset the electronics. If the issue persists once power is restored, we'd like to review your situation. Please send us a private message via Facebook, Instagram, X, or TikTok with your contact information, complete model/serial numbers, service history, and a copy of this review. GE_Appliances

    We have had it for 2 years. No issues other than the fan is very loud. Currently replacing with the exact same one to reuse the bracket. Not the microwaves fault, we had a kitchen fire. Microwave still worked fine.

    The microwave works well and everything but I don’t like that the fan automatically turns on (loudly) every time you microwave something. The old version of this microwave did not do that and I don’t believe there is anyway to turn off this feature.
