    We only wanted a basic microwave in stainless steel; no bells and whistles this time as we've never used the advanced M/W features in the past. The only complaint we have is that the control panel is not illuminated. So if the kitchen light is not on, it's hard to read the buttons. Only the clock is lit.

    It replaced an older GE microwave. The lower bracket holders matched on two brackets, newer model didn’t use the 4 holder brackets. Had to drill new holes through the top cabinet to match the threaded openings for the newer model, using the template that comes with the microwave. Microwave works fine. The hole through the cabinet for the power cord matched the old hole. It was already set up for the exhaust fan to blow out through the top, front.

    Awesome Mircowave! Ended up getting an open box one and it still worked perfect. Had an older version of this exact microwave that lasted several years and finally quit working. This is a wonderful upgrade. Very happy with it!

    I usually buy higher end appliances like Bosch, but when my microwave died and I read that they typically only last a few years I decided to get a budget replacement microwave. That said, this one matches nicely with my other stainless steel appliances and is working great. Buttons are sensitive, the machine has great reviews on multiple websites, and it looks great in person. Happy with my purchase.
