    We replaced the over the range microwave in the home we bought and although the old microwave still worked it was ugly with a broken plastic handle. This stainless steel microwave makes the whole look of the kitchen look new. It works well and is a lot more quieter than the old one. Love it.

    Piece of junk

    This piece of junk didn’t even last 2 years. It never worked great to start. The vent doesnt work. Heating takes a long time. The sounds for the buttons and finishing stopped working in under a year. The display numbers started flickering also. But just under 2 years it stopped doing its one job - heating food. Best Buy Geek Squad charges $104 to come diagnose problem, which i already knew what it was. Then it was going to be over $300 for them to repair it. That’s more than the microwave cost new!!! GE couldnt have cared less since warranty only for 1 year. Absolute junk.

    I had to purchase one quickly & Best Buy had this in stock. Looks nice, fairly basic but great price. I had it installed almost 2 weeks ago and so far it works fine. The film over touch controls looks a bit less clear in places but so far hasn’t affected use.

    Easy to install (need two people, these things are heavy!) and works as expected. Decent features for an inexpensive over the range microwave. I would buy this again for the price.

    GE Microwave . Works great, just as well as any high cost one in my opinion. It has clean clear lines, large capacity, and is very quiet. Best Buys installation specialists did a perfect job installing, removing the precious one, and fitting this is between cabinets.

    This unit is simple to use. Price was good. The only con would be the popcorn setting. Although you can increase the time it still limits the time. May have to add a few seconds. Other than that it is a good unit. Installation did not match up holes with last unit. That would have been a big plust.

    bought the matching microwave to go with the electric stove. The microwave is large and rotates when cooking. The popcorn feature requires the size of the bag which I like. Plus it looks awesome over my stove. Highly recommend!

    We purchased this unit to replace the original GE over the range that stopped working after 5 years. The instructions to install this unit was very easy and we were able to do it on our own. It's been a over 6 months and is working fine.

    This stainless steel model was affordable and looks stylish in my kitchen . It is easy to operate . The only thing I would change would be the button color , because in dim light the buttons are hard to see .

    No issues in the 5 months we've had it. Fit into our space nicely. Be aware that while the front is stainless steel, the sides are black. Might not matter if the sides are not going to be exposed (one side in our kitchen is open to view.)

    Microwave performs great. It was easy to install however the template was a little off. If the bracket is mounted as per the template, the microwave is about 1/8 inches high. It was an easy fix though simply by loosening the screws and let the bracket slide down the wall and retighten. I hung it by myself also, so it isn't too heavy to work with.

    I was worried it would not fit in since i was replacing an old microwave but it was perfect. I like the option of turning off the turntable. i don’t like the way the numbers are displayed when in use, you can barely see the number 1. Overall good purchase for the price.
