A basic microwave. Easy to open and close one handed. Has common convenience cooking buttons such as popcorn and reheat. Good power level as it cooks in allotted time recommendations of frozen items. Has rotating turntable with ability to turn it off.

I installed this unit to replace an existing GE microwave that failed after many years. This matches our other GE appliances and is a brand we trust. I had just a few issues with this model.
1 - I was replacing a very similar GE microwave, yet GE insists on changing the mounting bracket and the location of the overhead mounting screws, requiring a much more labor-intensive installation. Instead of being a 15 minute swap out, I had to remove the existing bracket and install the new bracket, drilling additional holes in the wall, and new holes had to be drilled in the overhead cabinet to accommodate the mounting screws, leaving the old holes in the cabinet. I don't understand why GE makes it so complicated to replace an existing GE microwave.
2 - The buttons on the control panel seem to be a little harder to "push" than our previous model. The old control panel required just a touch of the buttons, but these actually require a little push.3 - The location of the 30 second button is awkward, in the middle of the other command buttons. The 30 second button is the most used button and should be located at the bottom of the control panel where it is easy to find!
4 - The time display is white and the time display on our matching stove is green. Not a big deal, but when you walk into the kitchen at night, it looks strange.
Otherwise, this is a good microwave.

Installer was excellent...professional in time management...explaining this new machine to me ...checking to see all was well before his departure.

Great product and simple to operate. Standard size that fit right into my cabinets without any struggle. Durable housing and handle that won't break or crack with shape and how it is attached to the door. Love the price.

For the price, you cannot beat this microwave. It’s quiet, efficient and the exhaust is pretty strong. Lots of “speed” buttons that makes things a little easier when microwaving. For the price, you just can’t get a better microwave or deal.

My 17 year old GE microwave finally failed and I felt it was a great product so I replaced it with the updated version and I have been very satisfied so far

If you need an over the stove microwave, this one is wonderful. This is our second time purchasing this model, both for remodeled kitchens. Easy to use, responsive and looks good installed. Have never had a problem with either one we purchased.

This unit replaced a 10 year old GE with similar specs. This one is quieter and should last awhile. The only problem I had with the last one was the keypad that started failing at the 10 year mark. The cost to replace it was about half the price of this new model, so it was a no brainer. This keypad seems very stiff, so I'm hoping it can last 10 years also. This unit was priced very competively so that also had a big factor in getting this one.

This was a great purchase from Best Buy. Old old microwave burned out after 18 years. This one is perfect for us and the installers from Best Buy were the best! They were clean and did not leave a mess in my home as I have experienced in the past with other companies.

I previously had a GE microwave; in fact, I had it for 21 years without having any problems. I only bought a new one to match my new stainless appliances. Luckily, I was able to find the same size microwave as my previous one. Great delivery men!

I needed a new microwave that would fit over my cooktop. I wanted the latest version of what I had. The installers did a great job taking out the old one and putting in the new one. What I noticed right away was that the door opened so easily. I make pots of tea the old fashioned way. But the next day I reheat my tea in the microwave. I want this microwave to last a long time
