No regrets
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall good price for the money spent, took away a star due to not being able to see the numbers panel when the kitchen is dark, no backlit. Surprisingly most are not, my old one was white and was easy to read with low light from the stove, also old bracket was different than the new one, easy switch but I thought being my old one was 2018, I assumed it would be the same.

Nice Microwave Overall
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does what it is designed to do. Definitely read the manual. The reheat option caused a few headaches until we found out you have to open and close the door to get rid of the "FOOD" message on the screen. Defrost works well and the other functions are fine. It's a good value.

Excellent Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this microwave! It replaced another GE microwave of the same size. I was able to use the old microwave hanger on the wall. However, I had to drill new mounting holes in the cabinet that is over the microwave to line up with the hole pattern on this microwave. It comes with a hole template, but read the instructions on the hole template carefully.

Average quality
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this one instead of the old GE JVM 1630 that I had, which finally gave up the ghost and repairing it would cost more than this model. This one is, in a word, disappointing. Pros: it's about the same size so it fit ok in the existing space. It also has 2 vent fan speeds and placement of the vent is about the same as on the old one, so I did not have to change the duct. But otherwise I think it doesn't stack up to the 10+ year old model. It seems flimsy, LED display is smaller than on the old model, turntable is also smaller. It's a lot louder when it's running and seems to not be as powerful - heating up a cup of water in the old oven took 1.5 minutes, but this one does not get it hot enough on the same amount of time. It looks and feels cheap. I bought this one after reading the online manual thinking that I can reuse the holes from the old mounting, but the unit I got has a 'new installation' kit, which only has small horizontal bracket, instead of a large rectangular bracket that I expected. So I still had to drill 3 new holes in the wall. Placement of top retaining screws is also different, so 2 more new holes had to drilled in the bottom of the cupboard. So overall lots of work for quality and looks that doesn't compare to a 10 year old model.

Excellent customer service
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I placed this order online for store pick-up. I received a call within an hour that the item was ready for pick-up, but there was an issue with the last one in stock and asked that I come by the store to inspect. The salesperson who called and the department manager handled everything in an efficient and satisfactory manner, rewrapping the item after inspection, and delivering it to my car. The microwave is working fine and was easy to install because I was replacing a similar older model.

Like the Product, BUT
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I REALLY like the microwave! It's quiet, efficient and convenient. No problems there. I appreciated that given the wide window of the appointment, the installers came early. However, they seemed to be in such a hurry to accomplish their mission that they left a mess of sawdust and didn't even wipe out the cupboard above the microwave. They were finished in less than 40 minutes but left a mess behind.

Great microwave!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this microwave to replace the same model we'd had for about four years whose door handle broke off. Hoping that won't happen to this one, but so far, so good. It's easy to use and cooks the food well. My only complaint about this model, and this is our third one in 17 years, is that over time, the lights over the stove burners below stop working. I'm assuming this is due to being constantly exposed to heat and steam. Other than this, it's a great microwave and my husband installed it by himself in less than 30 minutes! (It helps to use the same model so that the holes line up...)

Microwave purchase and installation.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been well pleased with the purchase of the Microwave. I was even more pleased with the installation. The person who installed the Microwave had to overcome some obstacles regarding the structure of my house and he did a remarkable job of overcoming the obstacles resulting in a great installation and he did the job himself without help from anyone else. I was very impressed.
