    Perfect fit for replacing my 2003 model GE Microwave, didn't even have to change brackets. Works very well lots of nice features, and got a good price on it here on Best Buy. Great upgrade in our kitchen.

    Looks great and is rather easy to install. Easy to use and performs well. Fan is very quiet. The downlight really illuminates the cooking surface below. The only concern is that the door fit and latch seem flimsy (no problems, however.)

      Hello DCM2 - this is Nancy at GE. We are glad to hear that this microwave is working out great for you, especially since it performs well, the fan is quiet and the surface light works well. It is normal for the microwave door to have a little give in it, either up or down or in or out, up to 1/8". Further, the microwave door has a firmer spring in the door latch. This may be why the door seems different to you. I hope this helps! We hope you enjoy your new GE microwave for many years to come! GE_Appliances

    Aftyer about 20 years my son's GE Microwave finally gave up. With other priority items they put off replacing the microwave till after Christmas. That gave me the idea to replace their microwave with a new one in time for the Holiday Season. We live over 900 miles apart so after consulting with my son he said he would install it himself if he could use the same predrilled holes as the old one. Over the internet we discovered the Best Buy had the GE model that fit that requirement. It was then easy for me to buy it in Fargo and have him pick it up in Norman, OK. The installation and use have been completed and the whole family is very happy with the new microwave.

    Extremely quiet and easy to install. Definitely needed two people to hold up and put in but if you've put one in before, you'd know. So far so good, works great and has a lot of options. I do wish it has the codes for reheat posted but it's. Qr code.

    So far so good. Fairly easy install. It was to replace an existing range microwave so the new braxket just went in place of the old one. I did have to open the anchor holes a bit more because the microwave was a couple centimeters bigger other than that it’s working beautifully

    I recently got the GE 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave in stainless steel installed to replace a 20+ year old microwave, and it’s been a kitchen game-changer. Here’s the lowdown: • Sleek Stainless: Let’s start with the looks – it’s stainless steel, and it’s gorgeous. Adds a touch of sophistication to my kitchen. • Efficient Heating: When it comes to microwaves, you want one that heats things up quickly and evenly. This GE microwave does just that. No more cold spots in my leftovers! • Spacious: With 1.6 cubic feet of space, it’s roomy enough to handle large dishes. Perfect for reheating dinner plates or popping in that oversized bag of popcorn for movie nights. • Easy Controls: The controls are user-friendly, and I love the convenience of the presets. It’s like having a personal chef at the push of a button. • Exhaust Fan: It also has an exhaust fan, which is a bonus. Keeps my kitchen smelling fresh when I’m whipping up something aromatic. So, there you have it – the GE 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave. It’s sleek, powerful, and adds a dash of style to your kitchen. If you’re in the market for a microwave that’s as good-looking as it is functional, this one’s a winner!

    Microwave was easy to install and runs quietly. It has many options compared to our old GE microwave which lasted for 12 years. The only issues is the buttons are hard to see when the room is dark.

    Bought this to replace a similar model that had gone bad after a lightning storm. Best Buy was the only place to have it available quickly. Their online ordering and local pickup was simple, they even helped load it into my vehicle. The microwave has performed flawlessly for over two years now. Highly recommend.

    Good basic unit, buttons are not great

    I bought this because the dimensions are relatively small for 1.6 cubic ft unit and I despise microwaves that hang below the cabinets or stick out 6 inches in front of the surrounding cabinets. I was replacing a GE Profile from the mid-90s and it fit into the existing cabinet cutout perfectly - does not protrude below the cabinets, and the depth expanding out in front of the cabinets is minimal - only a couple inches. I installed with the recirculating fan option as we do not have exterior vent ducting. Usually microwave fans have 2 speeds - loud, and just as loud but moving less air. On this GE the low fan speed is much quieter than the high speed, which is rare and appreciated. My only complaints are that the worksurface light could be a bit brighter, and the buttons sometimes require more pressure than expected. Overall, it does everything I need it to, nothing I don't, and has held up fine for 6+ months now. Would recommend to anyone who isn't looking for bells and whistles.

    Great Microwave for this price range. It looks beautiful, very well made. Installation and mounting were mostly simple and by the manual. Very easy to clean. Love it!

    The overall quality this microwave is good, but some of the cosmetics fall short. The digital numbers are too close together and too blocky. The time is hard to read from farther then 3 ft. The arrangement of the buttons is not intuitive. The over head light button is located in the middle level of the keyboard. Considering how dark the keypad is it would have been nice to have something lit. It is very hard to see buttons in the dark (see light button). I do like the construction and the quick press of a number to start cooking (press 2 and it quick starts at 2 min).

    Got this to replace a GE Profile that finally died after 20+ years. I decided to go with the GE after reading a lot of the reviews and GE's responses indicating that the bracket and the cabinet holes would be the same, so it should be quick and simple plug and play installation. It was late in the day and I wanted this to be an easy replacement. IT WAS NOT. The outer tabs on the existing bracket did not align with the holes on this new microwave. Had to Dremel the ends of the outer tabs to fit the new microwave slots on the back of the unit. The existing bracket was very sturdy and very secure, so I wasn't interested in figuring out where to drill new holes in the studs for the new wall bracket. Also they changed the location of the holes on top of the unit. <angry!> So we had to futz with the template to figure out where to drill new holes in the cabinet above and finally get this installed. So what should have taken no more than an hour to take down the old one and put up the new one became a 3 hour ordeal. The good: Microwave appears to work great and is much quieter than the old Profile unit. The bad: Couldn't rely on GE's responses to previous reviews and questions. If your GE microwave is several years old, or is part of the older but excellent Profile series, you can't just plug and play this new unit. You'll have to shorten the outer tabs on the existing wall bracket, and you'll still have to drill all new holes because they changed the location of the screws on top of the unit. Also, they changed the location of the range light and +30 seconds buttons. You know, the two buttons we use the most. Also, it does NOT have a fingerprint resistant finish. I think some websites might list it as fingerprint resistant.
