    Fits just right, works great. Would be even better if the number panel had a light, it is very dark to see it at night time without turning on my kitchen light.

    The only thing I don’t like about this microwave is that the buttons don’t light at night or when they’re depressed. Other than that it’s roomy and smaller height than most

    Nice looking microwave for the price. Doesn’t last more than a couple years though. Had to rebuy the same one so we didn’t have to change the brackets again to hang it. Definitely gets used a lot.

    I really like my GE microwave. I like it best because it heats food up quickly. The panel of choices on the side is hard to read and does not light up at night.

    I purchased this GE microwave to replace the GE that I had for several years. I didn't think it would be as good but it's much quieter and really solid.

    Perfect fit and size for my mothers apartment. I’m glad I went with a full size microwave instead of a smaller version. Perfect lighting and vent.

    very lightweight doors. need to be very careful. Don't bang the door, a high chance the glass will break and even the door handle is very delicate.

    This is an easy to use microwave. The buttons are pretty self-explanatory and everyone in the family figured out its operation in a short amount of time. It seems to heat food evenly at all settings.

    Power, capacity, and features are comparable to or exceed others at a similar price. Installed it myself. Installation directions were a bit confusing, but there were no major issues, and the unit works fine.
