Great microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have only had this microwave a few weeks, but thus far I have really enjoyed this microwave. Great heat for cook time and overall easy to use. It is the perfect size and it looks great in my kitchen above the store. I really enjoy the two light settings under the microwave/above the stove and the vent settings are good and strong.

Sleek design & easy to install
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our old microwave of 11+ years crapped out recently & we had to go shopping for a new one. We saw this one on sale & made sure it fit our specifications. It is a sleek design, EXCEPTIONALLY quiet and such a breeze to install & use. My wife & I had it up & running within 15 minutes. We absolutely love it! Great microwave & very, very affordable.

very good microwave and easy to install
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this microwave works great, has all the features we need and the price was right. I installed it myself and it was pretty easy to do. I wish the mounting bracket had been the same as the previous GE microwave that it replaced (very similar), since that would have made it even easier, but spacing was just a little off.

Good microwave for the money.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been using my new microwave for about a month now. It was fairly easy to install and looks good in my kitchen. It's easy to use and so far works like you'd expect. My only negative is the clock isn't easy to see especially from a distance. The digits are close together so they blend into each other.

GE Micro
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We like it because it is similar to the one we already had and knew that the holes to secure the oven would be easier for us to install. What I don't like is that fact that when reheating small items for 30 seconds the item ends up too far in the back of the oven when it is done, like coffee. There are some ovens that always end up close to the front no matter how long/short it is microwaved. For the price it was good.

GE 1.6CF Over-the-Range Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace a similar model that had gone bad after a lightning storm. Best Buy was the only place to have it available quickly. Their online ordering and local pickup was simple, they even helped load it into my vehicle. The microwave has performed flawlessly for over two years now. Highly recommend.

Great Microwave!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was purchased as a replacement for a 12 year old, top-line KitchenAid over-the-range microwave. It was easy to install myself, priced right and had attractive looks that complemented the rest of the KitchenAid and Bosch appliances. Most impressed with the quietness of the unit. Great basic unit with the key features that does all a microwave should.

Great everyday use microwave oven
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very capable microwave. It has many of the advanced features of more expensive models in a compact and powerful case. It is sleek, modern and simple yet precise in its design. At ghis price range, no need to look elsewhere. Use it every day and it never fails.

Basic Unit - limited Convenience Cooking options
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A good, solid but very basic microwave. Doesn’t have any significant Convenience Cooking functions beyond Popcorn and Potato. The unit has a hollow sound when closing the door and the vent is pretty loud. It was inexpensive and fit the opening. It was easy to install but too bad every brand has a different wall bracket and upper cabinet hole locations.

so glad you had this Microwave!!!!! !
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had what looked like the identical MW and suddenly it stopped working or the heating element died. But as it was old and looked built in. This one is so close to being the identical one, so many years later and I am loving it. It has the features I got used to and a couple of welcome upgrades in a couple. Great product

So far...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ordered the microwave oven online for pickup and it was ready to go when I arrived at the Best Buy store. Installation was extremely easy as I was replacing an older version (from 2001) of the same microwave over and the new one used the exact same mounting hardware and mounting holes. Literally, removed the old oven (remove two screws, unplug and remove from the wall/cabinets, then attached the new oven using the old mounting brackets and secured with the top mounting screws. Keeping my fingers crossed that the quality of this one is better than some of the reviews (I purchased the extended warranty just in case..) As far as recommending this oven, after only a few weeks it is working well, the controls are very similar to the model it replaced. I can't make a quality evaluation until a year or two from now. LOL

OK for the Price and Does the Job
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The microwave does the job and operates well. It is not easy to use and the design is clunky. I first notice the time display is hard to read because the light behind the : in between the numbers is so bright the numbers are hard to see. The touch screen requires a hard press to enter the selection. For people who are not strong or who have hand pain this is difficult. The sound when opening and closing the door is loud. I needed to stay with this color and now wish I had spent more. It is OK for the price and does the job.
