    Need 2 people to install but fit my cabinet opening perfectly. It was good that it used the same wall brackets as the previous GE model. It has good power and the controls are easy to use.

    Much quieter than the earlier model I replaced this with and food heats up evenly and much faster. This replaces 2017 model GE.

    This is an easy to use microwave, installation was very quick because it fit in previous installation from another diffrent brand microwave. U to this point we are happy with it.

    This microwave does the job and looks attractive in my kitchen amongst all my other slate-colored GE appliances. I purchased it to replace an older version of this same model that stopped working. It looks almost identical to the older model, at a glance, but some of the buttons have changed location, and they're actually slightly less sensitive to touch (which I see as a negative). I preferred the older model, if I'm being honest, but this is still a good microwave.

    On my second one of these after the original lasted 5 days short of a year. (Thank goodness for basic product warranty and geek squad protection as a back up) If not for it matching my range, would have switched to a new brand.

    Takes a little getting used to with the new buttons but it cooks food evenly and is a huge improvement over the last one. Very satisfied so far.

    GE has always been the leader in appliances. This OTR microwave is no exception I love everything about it and we are pleased with the quality. Bestbuy had a lower price than anyone else and has a great warranty. My purchase was easy. I ordered it online was told it would take 2 days but it arrived a day earlier. I went to the store parked at the curbside are. Notified them via the app and within minutes they brought my item to the car. Install was a snap as I had a GE one before. I just took off the old one and placed this one. Cooks quick.
