Not so good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this because the same microwave at work was very quite, however this one is not; disappointing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDoor opening
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In spite of assurances that the door opening is zero clearance meaning one could open the microwave door 90 degrees out when mounted hugging the kitchen cabinet's side this could not be done. The unit was taken back by installers. Very disappointed. 60 days of waiting!

Posted .Thank you for taking the time to let us know what has happened. We're terribly sorry for the poor experience and understand how annoying this must have been due to the misinformation. The minimum distance from door hinge side to adjacent wall should equal 1/2 an inch with this microwave. We appreciate you choosing GE Appliances for your home. -Gina@GEA

Frustrated
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this GE microwave to replace by existing GE space maker microwave (this one was recommended by GE). Guess what non of the screws matched So needed to place new base board and drill new holes on top Should have bought a cheaper one and it probably would have matched the holes

||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best Buy is selling used items brought in through trade and advertising them as open box items , when the product never even came from their store
No, I would not recommend this to a friend2nd microwave of this type
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have bought 2 of these microwaves only for the fact that I knew this model would fit in the area that it was mounted but after about a year and a half to 2 years it will short out and stop working. Dont waste your money unless you enjoy spending $200 every year and a half or so on a new microwave.
