    Unit was purchased to replace near identical 25 year old unit. The new microwave oven has a number of upgraded control features. It reminds me of the feeling one gets when replacing an older auto with a current model and first experiences all the electronic features that now come standard. Installation service was outstanding..

    Microwave does exactly what I need it to do. It's much lighter than my previous one, which had a rack so multiple items could be heated at once. This one does not have a rack. My previous GE lasted 12 years and was replaced due to a kitchen remodel. We'll see if this one lasts as long.

    We love our new Microwave! We purchased it to go with the new range. Our old unit was quickly giving out so we decided to go with this GE unit which has good ratings on Consumer reports. It fits nicely above the range. Our appliances were installed efficiently by a Third Party team.

    After dealing with a mediocre counter top microwave, this is powerful and allows me to cook using bigger dishes. As it fits over the range, I have more counter space again.

    The price was good. We needed to replace an old microwave. The microwave looks good it's a nice size however we have some fogging issues on the door and some of the functions aren't there like I thought they would be. There is no function to Cook vegetables only the function to warm it up. Is the popcorn function that I found

    This is a great microwave option. I like that I can push the 30 seconds or other numbered buttons and it'll just start going instead of having to push start after. It's the small things.

    (I purchased this in 2019, not sure why it says purchased in 2020) This has been a good replacement for a high-end Bosch microwave. When the expensive unit died I made up my mind not to pay premium price for a microwave again. This was on sale and it’s worked great for over a year now. Has all the basic functions we need and a fraction of the price.

    Love this stylish very efficient microwave. Hate the touch panel which is hard to see and know which button is which. Always have to study the panel before selecting function as it’s hard to see what is what. This panel needs to be revised to make it easier to read. We all don’t have 20yr old eyes
