Terrible Design Flaw
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Handle on microwave broke and costs almost as much as the microwave to replace.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .Hello there, we're so sorry to hear that the handle broke off your microwave. This is never want we expect for our consumers so we can expect how aggravating this was for you. We want to tell you how much we appreciate you letting us know so that we can work to prevent this from happening again. We also wanted to let you know pricing can be dependent on several factors. The economic elements include distribution, warehousing, and marketing costs, which account for a portion of the selling price of the part. Other factors like usability (cosmetic vs. functional) and availability also contribute to pricing. Unfortunately, in some cases, purchasing replacement parts can be less cost effective than replacing the appliance, especially with older appliance or small appliances like microwaves. We're wishing you the best and we hope to keep you in our GE Appliances family. - Guy@GEA
