    What I can say about this GE over the range microwave is it wasn't to difficult to install and it works well and the appearance is what I was looking for.

    I rated this 4 stars because compared to the unit we replaced, which was a Kenmore Elite that cost $900 in 2011, this unit's fit and finish along with the overall build quality is less than 5 stars. But otherwise, for the price, this unit works very well and is easy to install. The mounting holes on top weren't in the same place as our Kenmore so I had to do more drilling, but other than that it was easy to install. BEWARE - it takes two strong adults to install this or any other Over-the-Range microwave. I would definately recommend this unit if you need something in this price point that works well and looks good.

    I gave 4 out of 5 stars because I have only had the microwave for almost a month to date of purchase and install. This unit replaced a Magic Chef unit. This was an open box item, yet still retained the factory sealed tape on the unit itself. This unit goes for over $300 new. But I got it for $170 out the door, including a 3yr extended warranty.

    Easy enough to install, works great. Replaced our old microwave with this one. Heats well, easy to clean. Door clicks open and shut fairly loudly which is my only concern. Otherwise a sturdy machine so far, we have used it for four months.

    This microwave is lovely, I love it! It was super easy to install with the help of a friend. Works very well. It has a light that has low & high for brightness, i absolutely love that. The fan also has low & high. Its just an overall perfect change for my tiny kitchen and I am extremely pleased with it

    So far, so good. Our last GE Microwave's handle broke out of the door and the glass shattered so we purchased this one. It closes and opens much easier but the carousel is smaller. Only owned it for a few months now so no telling how long it will last. Hopefully for a decade or more.

    Surprised at how quiet this is while in use. Like the "reminder" feature if you don't remove your heated food from the oven right away. Has all the things we were looking for in a over the stove microwave, plus was not difficult to install.

    After a power surge took out my 15-year-old over-the-range GE microwave, it seemed too good to be true that this replacement would be quieter and less expensive. It even fit on the existing wall mount. Great value.

    Item was in stock and ready for pickup on the date promised. I arrived to pick it up and a BB Team Member asked me to get my vehicle and park near the doors. That person carted the item out and loaded it for me. Unexpected by me but very appreciated. Great customer service.

    Keypad is illegible!!!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We just got this microwave as a gift from our children. Compared with our ancient microwave this is great! BUT the keypad is hard to read when the lighting in the kitchen is bright and impossible if the lights are low. I have to turn on the lights to turn off the under light at night. I understand that adding back light to the pad would add cost, but just make the graphics white instead of dull gray. Too bad this one flaw ruins an otherwise solid product.

    Very easy to install with the supplied templates. Although it doesn't have a cooking probe, I never used it with the last one that I had. It is for the guest house, and more than sufficiently replaces the unit that cost three times as much before.
