    This GE microwave has all the features I was looking for. The alarm isn’t as annoying as the Frigidaire microwave that was replaced. I like the defrost by weight option. This microwave was a reasonable price compared to other choices. I hope this GE microwave will last longer than the Frigidaire that lasted only 6 years. Our competent repairman recommended GE for availability of parts for future repairs. Also, this microwave was in stock and installed after a 2 week wait for delivery.

    Looked at several options for a replacement microwave for our kitchen. The GE over the range unit was perfect. Has essentially the same features of our old unit, was easy to install and works great.

    Only had this GE microwave a few days but it has exceeded my expectations. Quiet and efficient. Performs as well as many priced much higher. Takes a little while to convert to non-outside venting, but once installed looks and works great.

    We researched for a new microwave after our 19 year old microwave died. We choose this model at Best Buy based on reviews and price. Excellent customer service received in the small appliance department.

    Nice looking stainless steel microwave. I like that it has two fan vent speeds and two lighting settings. Perfect as a night light. Easy to operate and quiet running.

    GE Microwave Uncertainty

    Associate planned to give me a dented and torn box that looked repackaged. I said I won't accept this one because inventory showed 5 pieces in stock. He wasn't happy about going back and getting me a better looking carton. As for the microwave, I'm hoping to get at least 5 years out of it. The same previous model lasted 6 1/2 years. I had a Panasonic Microwave prior to purchasing GE and that one gave me 16 wonderful years of service. Engineers are now hired to make new units fail right after the warranty expires. This is the new norm. Get ready for it. That's all I can say.

    Replacement Microwave/Exhaust Hood

    Replaced a GE Profiles Microwave (8 years old) with another GE microwave. New unit was a little flimsy compared to old unit - door seems a little flimsy and closing the door seems a little less firm, if that makes sense. Otherwise all the other features seem about the same. The new unit must be lower wattage, but otherwise works fine. Note - the mounting bracket is the same, so hanging GE on an old GE bracket works, but the mounting screw locations on the top through the upper cabinet are not in the same area, so you have to use the paper template to make new screw holes.

    I never have any issues when purchasing from Best Buy. My new microwave looks great in my kitchen. I had to wait a few days to pick up, it was worth the wait. My next purchase will be a new stove. Maybe a washer and dryer. It's about that time, out with the old in with the new.
