Microwave is a DUD
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Microwave straight up died after 1 month of light to moderate use. It didn’t trip the breaker or anything. The plug it was plugged into still works just fine. We are on the phone with GE now, but I don’t know how helpful they will be. I don’t think I’ve ever bought an appliance and gotten 1 month out of it. Makes me nervous about the oven we bought with it!

Broke after a few weeks. Warranty repair sucks
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It started to spark a few weeks after it was installed. GE sent a repair person out, made an appointment to come back in 2 months was necessary parts would be in for the repair. TWO MONTHS!

I would recommend this to a friendGood microwave, poor installation instructions
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced old unit with this new one. Either installation instructions are incorrect or product is mis-designed. No one available at GE Customer Service competent enough to resolve problem. Problem not corrected.

Good Quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good Product / Nice and sturdy / delivery went well. Installation took place in a timely manner. Overall process went well and staff were very professional.
I would recommend this to a friendZero quality
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very cheaply made. Door does not line up correctly. I already paid to have it installed above range in rent house otherwise would return it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendReplaced samed model from 2017!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ok, why would I buy the exact same model as I purchased in 2017 that failed so miserably? Because I did not want to re-invent the wheel. I wanted the new to fit the same footprint as the previous. I originally purchased this model (not from Best Buy) in 2017 and it failed shortly after the warranty expired. The cost to fix and install was almost as much as a new one. So if you buy this model, buy the 5 year warranty.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGreat microwave!
