    I bought this microwave for two reasons: (1) it got a good rating from Consumer Reports and (2) it was attractively priced, having a $50 discount. Installation was reasonably priced and very quick. I love this microwave for three reasons: (1) it cooks more evenly and better than any microwave I have ever had; (2) the timer can be operated while cooking with the microwave; and (3) it has one-touch express cooking.

  • 80dB while heating up food. Too loud

    Easy installation, looks nice. Extremely load fan when operating though, Sound level was 80dB standing in front of it, like a hair dryer. The fan "automatically" turns on, so its always loud. It should be a whisper unless I turn on the vent, does the electronics really need 300CFM to keep cool? Many people commented how quite it is, while some had same noise complaint. I Replaced a 20year old GE microwave that was very quite, so I either got a bad unit or that's just the noise levels people are used to now... i will talk to GE about this issue.

    Kind of cheap and plastic doors, and weird placement of the logo. It should be centered above the door and not centered above the whole unit. Its functions are OK but the button placement is also not ideal compared to other GE microwaves I've used in the past

    Super oven. Easy to install. We searched for this microwave at several stores and online. Best Buy had the best price and was the ability to find which store in our vicinity had it in stock was quite valuable.

    This is an excellent microwave for a small kitchen. The design provides much more oven space than one would expect. The controls are intuitive. It's quiet, makes efficient use of space and does it's job well.

    The microwave is very efficient and nice looking. The only problem is that the silver screen comes down easily if you hit it at all while cleaning. We payed for insulation, they did a great job!

    This model is a upgrade of my previous microwave.Everthing is same as previous model. The delivery & install went flawless. The installors had to make some minor adjustments for it to fit under my counter. Best Buy price was cheaper than the other big box warehouses.
