      We are glad to hear that your microwave was fixed and working well now. It is normal for the unit to make sounds while operating. Normal sounds can be produced by the appliance as well as the food being heated in the appliance. Please review the article titled “Microwave - Arcing or Making Sounds” on the GE Appliances website.

    The microwave is great; however, it took Best Buy way longer than promised to have it available for pick up.

    I have found this microwave to be very noisy when opening and closing the door. Plus if you want to cook for less than 1 hour you have to perform several steps.

    We replaced a Samsung microwave that was over 13 years old. I did not recognize how loud that thing was until we got this. I have to double-check it sometimes because I cannot believe that it is running. Another bonus for this microwave is the light while it is cooking. It heats items evenly, and the quickset timing buttons are a great feature. I see some have said that the handle is flimsy, but I have not found that to be the case. Overall, I am extremely happy with this purchase AND the Total Tech Support membership that gave us a discounted install with free haul away of our old microwave.

    I was able to order online and pick up on the day I was to be in Victoria. It only took a couple of days. I was in and out in 10 minutes with help to load it in my car. The only thing I didn't understand was being enrolled in a program that would save me each time I ordered, and they charged me $1.97 initially, so I had to cancel in order not to pay $12.00/month membership fee. I don't remember the name and Best Buy employees didn't know about it either.

    I chose this microwave to replace one that was falling apart. It had to fit in a certain space and that was why I chose it. It installed very easily, and works great.
