    This item works fine so far. It is not as solid as the one it replaced; it feels slightly tinny The control panel is not visible in low light, very aggravating. These issues were not apparent from the reviews I found. Recommend to buy a more expensive model if the shortcomings can be identified beforehand.

    Pretty basic microwave. Overall I've been happy with it. My only real criticism is that it only has two vent settings, and the popcorn sensor doesn't go for long enough. Happy with it for the price tho

    This was the only white microwave available at Best Buy. Have used it for only 10 days. But for the price, it is doing the job I expected.

    microwave works mostly fine except for the whistle noise it makes every time . I had a contractor install it and it made the noise the second day , removed it and checked everything and it still makes the noise. I need to contact GE to see my options.

    Good 'over the range' microwave. Fits well in our kitchen. The only thing missing is the ability to select number of seconds less than 30 which we used frequently.
