    Purchased this model for a rental property. Very good product for the cost. Wasn't looking for extra features. Just wanted something that looked good at a good value. Check and check. ...And Best Buy installation guy was even better.

    Good microwave, but could be so much better

    This is a good microwave, but with a few minor improvements, it could have been a Great one. First of all, the interior light is totally inadequate. If you are cooking any kind of food that needs observation, forget about being able to SEE it. Also, you cannot see through the window clearly at all. Another problem is that the done signal is very quiet. Some microwaves are too loud, this GE is too quiet unless you are in the kitchen. I like the exterior light and the 2-speed fan a lot. The control panel seems fairly easy to use. For the price I paid, it is a good microwave. I just wish that I COULD SEE MY HOT FOODS COOKING BEFORE THEY WENT OVER THE SIDE OF THE BOWLS. It is too bad because then it would have been an excellent product and a great value

    I don’t ask much out of a microwave, just that all its features perform as advertised and that it lasts a reasonable amount of time. So far, so good. It has performed well.

    I had to purchase a replacement microwave that I have had for 19 hard years. This was a direct replacement and same brand so it made it very easy to decide plus Best Buy was cheaper than all the other box stores. The microwave works great and I do recommend to have a friend or at least a second person to help make the install quick and easy.

    Purchased this to replace burned out older GE Microwave. It had a high Consumer rating and Best Buy had the best price. I would have rated it a 5 except I had to drill new holes to install it. Instructions for installation and use are straightforward.

    Replaced original over the range microwave with this one. Needed some modifications to the way it mounts to allow venting because the older one had front venting and this one did not. Unit performs well and am happy with purchase.

    I just bought this stainless version but had the white one of the same model for years. Controls are easy to figure out. Whenever instruction give two cooking times which depend on the power I've never had to use the longer time. Two people better for installing if you a re DIYer. Even if you can handle the weight of the microwave it's too bulky to see the mounting tabs in back .

    After checking the available Microwave at Best Buy we decided to check other places but ended up back at Best Buy because of the atmosphere and friendliness of the sales dept. Besides the price, we liked the style of the GE 1.6 and the easy to understand control system! Now that we have had it for some time, we are very satisfied with it`s performance and convenience!
