Terrific microwave

Posted .Hello janmont - this is Nancy at GE. We're glad to hear that your new GE dishwasher was easy to install and that you believe this microwave is terrific! We appreciate you choosing GE and for providing your feedback!
Great oven, not easys to install.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very good oven operationally. Simple, trim, looks good. Installation more difficult. The hold up screws are spaced to far apart, meaning that your upper cabinet cannot be too small or there is no place for edge hole on right. Both times I have done one, I end up recutting holes and having to get washers for screws. I am NOT a professional, just a nuclear engineer. The top vent mounting bracket is too flimsy and tends to bend. Using the template in a tight cabinet space is a nightmare.
I would recommend this to a friendVery Good product; excellent installation.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We wanted something to replace our 3 year old top of the line Whirlpool which had died. This model of GE doesn't have as many bells and whistles but is simple to use and promised to last much longer than the Whirlpool. The people who installed it we're fast, effecient, polite and cleaned up everything when they were done.

A microwave so nice, I bought it twice
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I liked this microwave enough that I bought it twice, in two different colors - one for one kitchen and one for the other. Of the options available, I feel this is a great choice for virtually any kitchen, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for an over-the-counter microwave.
I would recommend this to a friend Easy to use and program. Good value for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We chose to have this installed due to its size and weight. It’s been easy to use and program. One major issue is how dark the control is. I’m rating it fair and would not recommend because of this issue

I would recommend this to a friendPerfect fit
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We are extremely pleased with our purchase. Our old over-the-range microwave died without warning. It was far more expensive than this GE model, and slightly larger, and I didn't want to spend a lot of money on the replacement. This GE fit the bill perfectly. It was easy to install and has worked like a charm.

I would recommend this to a friend Cheaply built. Not as good as older models
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace the same model from 10 years ago. Thought it would be the same or better. Turned out to be cheaper and worse in terms of quality. Also, the bolts are not in the same spots and the mounting plate changed. I thought it was going to be a simple swap, but it required a bit more effort than expected. The touch pad is cheap. Pressing certain buttons make a cheap plastic creaking sound which didnt happen my old unit. The blower unit also makes a high pitch noise that didnt exist on my old microwave. If you're sensitive to noise, you may want look elsewhere. The door is very light and feels cheap. The top edge of my door was grinding against the adjacent edge of the microwave housing or cover. It made a popping sound every time I opened the door. I had to get a screwdriver and hammer to reshape the metal housing to fix the problem. Bad QC by GE. There is only one light bulb instead of two found on older models, so this one is dimmer but still ok. Otherwise, the microwave works fine.

Easy!

I would recommend this to a friendGreat microwave on a budget
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a bottom of the line microwave. It is very loud when it runs. Also GE used a halogen bulb as the surface light. Why not LED? Great microwave if you are on a budget and don't mind the noise.

I would recommend this to a friend Great Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this to replace the one that came with the house. We wanted something powerful enough to cook, filter smells, etc. This does the trick. This isn't a reflection on the product itself, but the installation instructions were a little difficult to follow. It took about 2.5 hours from start to finish.
