    Good Microwave for Price, Just Loud

    Microwave is nice looking. I like all the functions and easy to use. My only complaint is the how loud it is when it's running. We had the same microwave before, and it was much less noisy.

    It took a while to get it but it was worth the wait. We had it vented to outside the house. The 3 speed vent fan pulls everthing right out of the kitchen. My smoke alarm hasn't gone of since I got it. Best microwave I've ever had.

    Upgrading my kitchen with a new microwave

    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 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!

    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.

    Was looking for a smaller microwave for over my range. This came in with a 15 and 1/2" depth and 16 and 1/2" height. which was one of the smaller ones out there. So far the microwave works great, looks great, and has freed up a lot of counter space. Not too difficult to install - had a little trouble getting it into the slots at the back of the frame on the wall but the second attempt was the charm. Definitely a two-person installation job.

    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 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!

    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!

    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.

    Fits well into our cabinet structure, and does look good. Easy enough to use. The buttons are a little hard to read though. It would be nice if the buttons were backlit when you pressed one. Many appliances seem to support this and I just didn't notice till it was in place.

    good looking. good size. easy to install, same mounting as my old Kenmore microwave, so I just took old one down and lift the new one and sit on the old mounting plate. It took me 15 minutes.

    Bought this to replace my old GE Spacemaker. Got the first one with unaligned door and replaced with a new. Build quality is so plasticky not as solid as the old spacemaker. Mounting bracket has only two screws instead of four. Similar operation logic and functions to the old. Hopefully it can last for 15 years as my old one was.

    Purchased this in a hurry to replace a GE profile microwave that broke. This microwave works and looks fine and fit perfectly. It feels inexpensive as far as the door and control buttons but for the price it exceeded my expectations. Best Buy had it in stock and I installed it the same day my old one broke. Great overall purchase.
