    Happy with Microwave

    I had to unexpectedly purchase this microwave during the Covid-19 Pandemic stay at home restrictions, following multiple Earthquakes that hit my area during the stay at home restrictions, If the pandemic itself was not enough to worry about. The earth had to shake things up a bit more! I believe my other one, which was not that old, must have had a power surge during the initial 5.7 earthquake. fortunately that my only real damage. And this was not a good time to be without a microwave, for sure. you can not be at stay at home restrictions during a pandemic and NOT have a microwave! I got online, ordered this microwave and had my brother help me install. I chose GE because I was replacing a GE and hoped all the mounting hardware would match up. The bracket did, but had to drill new holes for the mounting screws. all in all, it was installed in about a half hour. It is quieter than my old one, which I am very happy with. The old one had more features but this one has plenty for my needs. The only thing I can say I wish was different, is.. My old one had green digital lights for the time and such, that matched all my other appliances, but this one has white digital lights. wish it had the same display lights, but I will get used to it. I would recommend this microwave. It looks good, installed easily for my situation and is quiet. The last thing I want to say is THANK YOU Best Buy for being open for curb side pickup during a very different time in the world and being open and available to me when I need this item. Thank you!

    Exactly what I expected

    I read lots of reviews. So fair to post one. Works great. Quiet. Fan option is nice. I installed by myself. Looks great. Most folks don't use any of the features. They just toss in the food and pick a time, but I had some leftovers today, chose "reheat", chose the type of food, chose the approximate amount (1.5 cups) and my food was heated perfectly. Time will tell, but so far I picked a good one.

    Great GE Microwave

    This GE microwave has been awesome so far. I set it up myself! It heats food evenly and way faster than my old one. The presets work really well and make it easy to warm up leftovers, defrost meat, or cook simple meals. It’s quiet, the inside is spacious, and the controls are simple to use. Installation was straightforward and it looks clean and modern in my kitchen. For the price, the quality is excellent and I’m really happy with how well it performs. Definitely recommend it.

    So far am really happy with this microwave. Have been only using it for about two and a half weeks. Has worked well and is very spacious. Was easy to install by my son in law. Looks good over the stove. My kitchen is in the process of being remodeled so this over the stove microwave was an upgrade. A very welcome one! Also was a good price.

    It really is a nice unit for the price. We were replace a unit that went bad after 12 years. Install wasnt too bad but you need an extra set of hands during some parts of the install. The microwave is a lot quieter than our old one and seems to take less time to cook the same items. Has some nice features and would buy again!

    Brought it home and spent most of the afternoon taking out the old one, putting in the new wall bracket and installing the new unit. Instructions were easy to follow. Unit operates well, is much more quiet than the old unit. Have to listen to make sure I pushed start. Seems to be a good value.

    It is easy to install, easy to start and easy to operate. Cleaning is simple. Heat is uniform. Overall, a very solid item at a very nice price, complete with installation and haul-away of the old one. Looks sharp, too!

    This is a replacement for an older GE microwave that failed after 15 years. It was easy to self-install and has all the features we wanted. Best Buy's price and home delivery were very competitive. The appearance of this newer GE unit actually is a better match for the old GE fridge that we still have. Controls are easy to understand. Would buy it again.

    Purchased this microwave to replace a previous model that is now discontinued (JNM3151DFBB). This model easily installed in the place of the older model. The vent grill is on top vs the front which gives it a more sleek and modern look. Buttons are intuitive and super easy to use. Great microwave and a great price!

    Bought as a replacement for an earlier model of same brand/range, which I had for over 12 years. Exactly what I needed, and relatively easy to mount, even though the brackets were different (seems a poor design decision). I brought this brand because I am a fan of its functionality and look.

    It’s a solid product. We understood that it wasn’t top-of-the-line when we purchased it but it meets our need. The only concern we have at this point is it would seem that we have some mild peeling of the film on the control plant panel.
