    Very happy with my choice of this "mid-level" GE microwave! It has all the features I cared about - one-touch cooking, competent fan, convenient light placement, and the right form factor to replace my old microwave - without anything flashy or unnecessary. I did a fair amount of research, but some unexpectedly-nice bonuses have been the very-readable display (can tell time across the room now!), and a much-less-obscured stovetop because this microwave isn't nearly as deep as its more-expensive cousins.

    Replaced a unit in which the control pad failed. Searched for something of similar dimensions so as to avoid the space issues. This lined up quite well, though did need to drill new support holes. Outside of this, the microwave works great; may even be slightly more powerful. Bonus was many of the keys were in a similar location. Stove lights are very bright, which has been helpful for seeing our stove more easily. Price to value can't be beat!

    This was bought for a friend who was replacing her 29 year old Kenmore microwave. I recommended this model as I have installed 3 before this one and they all are working well. I love the express cook feature and all the other features and it works well.
