    After one year of purchasing this product, it broke down. It had a 2-year warranty. When the service team came to my house, they saw a cockroach next to the microwave and said that the warranty did not cover it because there were cockroaches in the house. They left without performing any service.

    Depth of microwave unit is too short leaving the top vent too close to cabinet doors just above the microwave. Thus when hot vapor escapes from the top vent reaching the cabinets which will ultimately be compromised by the hot vapor,

    Does its job and heats food properly but the motor is obnoxiously loud. Then GE charges $99 to send a tech out to diagnose the issue. Not worth the cost of this microwave.

    I would have given it 5 stars as I have no complaints with the appliance. Looks and works well, I took away 2 stars because they lost the mounting screws and its very hard to get replacements.

    The display started flashing 10 months after purchase but before that we noticed how flipping loud the exhaust fan is and it comes on automatically when ever you use the oven.
