    I chose this microwave because of its simplicity in style and features. It was a replacement for a 20-year-old one and fit precisely in the space. Also, the delivery and installation was perfectly conducted.

    Love appearance and performance of microwave. HOWEVER, the control panel has no backlighting therefore you cannot read the words or numbers. I have to keep a flashlight on the counter in order to use the microwave. This is definitely a flaw. Had I found these kinds of comments in the review I would not have ordered. It is extremely inconvenient to use but performance is exceptional; way better than our old one which was 17 years old but still working. It was a GE also.

    We needed this exact size and color. This was the only model, of any brand, still offering the chosen color. Controls are easy to use. The microwave cooks well. Vent fan works well. Love it.

    Easy install, the hardest part was installing screen filter for internal venting. Microwave is easy to use and has numerous one button push functions. I’m very happy with my purchase and Best Buy had the best price.

    This microwave does all the basics we want -- heating at various levels; timed heating, a timer, a reminder. You can make instant oatmeal, a mug of tea or cocoa, heat corn on the cob for a minute before much-easier shucking. The turntable rotates so that the flood is heated evenly. It has a clock that's easy to set. It has a night light that can go on daily automatically. Ours is set to vent to the outside through the wall behind it. You can watch the food being heated through the window. This microwave is quieter than the similar GE model we had purchased 15 years ago that we replaced because of a broken door,. This is a good microwave.

    Was looking for a microwave that was not too big since our previous one was a very old model and was not that big. This was the closest one i could find. Installation instructions were easy to follow. Fit perfectly in the space of our previous Microwave. Easy to operate and we’re hoping this would last as long as well as our old one ( more than 15 years in use).

    Bought this to replace a similar model that had gone bad after a lightning storm. Best Buy was the only place to have it available quickly. Their online ordering and local pickup was simple, they even helped load it into my vehicle. The microwave has performed flawlessly for over two years now. Highly recommend.

    Best Buy is the BEST BUY! Customer service really is customer service; I was in good hands and was HELPED from the minute I entered the store. As I entered the store I was directed to the product I was looking for and within minutes a sales person met me and assisted me with my purchase AND saved me $100.00. After my experience at Best Buy I returned my IPad at a different store and I’m now going to Best Buy for an IPad. Thank you BEST BUY,

    Perfect fit for replacing my 2003 model GE Microwave, didn't even have to change brackets. Works very well lots of nice features, and got a good price on it here on Best Buy. Great upgrade in our kitchen.
