    So far, so good. Easy install and has the right amount of features. It's kind of loud when it first turns on or if you use a decreased power setting. At the sale price it's a good value.

    This was a replacement microwave for us, and we're pleased with its efficiency and how quiet it is. Minor quibbles are that the lower power settings seem to drop off pretty quickly, and the display can be a little hard to read. But we're satisfied with how it works.

    On the plus side is that it is very quiet. This applies to the cooking fan as well as the vent fan. The turntable is larger than most and allows a better arrangement of dishes to heat up. What I don't like is the control panel. The LED time display is very bright and the digits are too close together. I find it difficult to read. The lettering on the buttons is also hard to read because it is very faded looking and not distinct. Further, my wife has great difficulty in getting the buttons to respond when she presses on them. Overall, a nice machine for the price, but look at the control panel to see if you like it.

    A replacement for a 19 year old GE model. Fit perfectly in the old built in space. Quieter than the last one, but very similar in many regards. Only thing I don’t like is white numerals after having green for so long, but I’m sure I’ll get used to it.

      We are sorry to hear about the film covering the control panel coming off. We recommend checking to make sure that this isn't a layer of protective film leftover from manufacturing. If you require assistance with the control panel, we recommend contacting our Bodewell team for assistance. You can do so by calling 1-833-426-3393. GE_Appliances

    The microwave oven is attractive, efficient and has many features like reheating, cooking potatoes and popcorn and defrosting. It's much easier to use than the old one I had before purchasing the GE. It's stainless steel and will not crack nor will the handle fall off like plastic models sometimes do. I'm very satisfied with its performance and its sturdiness.

    Great Oven Check Warranty Coverage

    This is not one of those microwave ovens that have all imaginable bells and whistles on them. All it does is microwave food and it does a great job of it. In my case it replaced a name brand microwave that did not reach full cooking temperature. If you wonder why I did not attempt to repair our former microwave, which happened to be under warranty, it was because I would have had to take the microwave off the wall for repair and then be responsible for putting it back on the wall. If you decide to buy the warranty, make sure you are not responsible for removing it from the wall.

    Bought this to replace an older GE model that had many issues and had many service calls. Bought another GE for the look and pre-programmed buttons and hoped that it would fit in the existing wall mount. New wall mount and new LED colors. The old unit and the matching stove had green LED displays and the new one is a white-ish color. So far it is performing well. I did buy a three year warranty because the price I paid was the lowest it had been for several months so I considered the warranty as mostly free. Over the range microwaves take a beating so I hope this one holds up and if not, I know who to call.

    Works like a charm. It has some features that my old one did not have and a doesn't have one that I do miss. My old one had a Hold Warm feature that this one does not have, but I don't miss it that much and the new one works much better.

    Bought this microwave to replace our old over the stove one. It is amazingly quiet! Has lots of pre-programmed quick touch options for ease of use. Dimensions are exact as stated in the description so no issues fitting this in where the old one was.
