Amazingly quiet microwave oven
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave was purchased as a replacement for our previous one. While it was purchased mainly for its dimensions and price, we were pleasantly surprised at how quiet it was and continues to be. The controls are straightforward and easy to use. It is an attractive addition to our kitchen.

Excellent Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent microwave, works flawlessly so far. My favorite feature of this microwave is the quick start (press and hold 1 for 1 minute, 2 for 2 minutes, etc.). I had a previous GE Profile Microwave with this quick start feature and having to press multiple buttons to put in a cook time would be too inefficient for me. Make sure to measure dimensions, also chose this microwave as it was most similar in size to previous one and best fit in the space above the range. My only minor complaint about it thus far is my old microwave had a melt function and this one does not. However, I've read can just reduce power level to melt butter, etc. It is true they could improve the backlighting and/or visibility of the keypad, but as long as there is some sort of light on in the kitchen I don't have any issues seeing the buttons on the keypad.

APPLIANCES & MORE
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never even thought to look at Best Buy for an appliance but when the big box stores had a 4-5 week waiting period for install and your previous microwave blew up you find other avenues. Got it purchased and installed in 5 days, installer was a great guy, knew what he was doing and wasted no time in getting it done, explained everything to me and cleaned up. Love the microwave, good price and nice look

Nice and simple design
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this microwave as a replacement for an old GE appliance. The new device looks much better. It is slightly smaller than the old unit. Unfortunately, the wall mount was completely incompatible, so it wasn't just a simple replace.

Great Range... difficult to install
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this range to compliment my oven. It was a challenge for me to install by myself. Other than the installation. It's easy to clean/wipe down. The stainless steal design is sleek. Has an internal light, 2 speed fan. Easy to open and close. The plus side to this product is that it's quiet.

Nice fit and look
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had the older version of this same microwave. It is true like others have said about the mounting holes and extension holes being different than the old version. It was still pretty much plug and play as far as the fit. The additional holes in the wall and cabinetry was unwelcome. Looks great and seems more efficient maybe slightly quieter. The biggest difference is the beacon of bright light illuminated for the clock…alas with no dimmer. Least I’ll be able to see what time it is all the way across from the living room. LOL

Fantastic OTR Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Definitely a great brand and value for the price! The options and controls offered are ideal especially one that sets it apart from all other brands...the express cook feature that allows you one touch cooking from 1 to 6 minutes!! That particular feature along with the GE reputation and the sharp looks of the stainless steel on black appearance was the deciding factor in purchasing this microwave!

GE Microwave Uncertainty
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Associate planned to give me a dented and torn box that looked repackaged. I said I won't accept this one because inventory showed 5 pieces in stock. He wasn't happy about going back and getting me a better looking carton. As for the microwave, I'm hoping to get at least 5 years out of it. The same previous model lasted 6 1/2 years. I had a Panasonic Microwave prior to purchasing GE and that one gave me 16 wonderful years of service. Engineers are now hired to make new units fail right after the warranty expires. This is the new norm. Get ready for it. That's all I can say.

good product!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just got this microwave and it’s awesome! Heats up my food evenly, no cold spots. The defrost feature? Total game-changer. And those preset modes? They’ve got my back for whatever I’m cooking. Cleanup’s a snap, too—nothing sticks! Plus, it’s super quiet. Honestly, it’s made my kitchen life way easier. Totally recommend it if you’re looking for an upgrade!

Reasonably priced over the range microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I especially appreciate the brightness of the surface light. The keypad is user friendly. The door properly shuts, yet appears to be very lightweight. The power is sufficient. Have appreciated the efficiency of the microwave thus far. Bought the microwave on sale. It was a good deal!
