Horrible experience
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Horrible experience, microwave was missing bracket and screws, installation was scheduled 3-4 times, brackets were never delivered, finally ended up returning back to best buy. Worse customer service experience as these department don't talk to each other
No, I would not recommend this to a friend2nd microwave of this type
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have bought 2 of these microwaves only for the fact that I knew this model would fit in the area that it was mounted but after about a year and a half to 2 years it will short out and stop working. Dont waste your money unless you enjoy spending $200 every year and a half or so on a new microwave.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot the old GE quality
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If this oven is on more than three minutes it starts to make a groaning, buzzing sound. From decades in IT and around electronics this sounds like bad caps or power supply in a unit that is only a month old. Not happy and I wish I'd bought another brand. We'll see if I can get a replacement or repair.

||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Stopped heating after about 15 months of owning very disappointed
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDO NOT BUY
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.absolute junk. I knew taking it out of the box it was flimsy and cheap. It died in 90 days. GE support makes repairs beyond difficult to the point you just throw it out and buy something else that's NOT GE.

Posted .Hello there, we're so sorry to hear that your microwave died after just 90 days. We'd never want this for any of our consumers so we can only imagine the level of disappointment you felt. If you're still needing it repaired, we recommend taking advantage of your warranty and scheduling service with a certified GE Appliances technician that will be able to accurately diagnose and repair your appliance. You can do so by calling GE Appliance Service at 1-800-GECares (1-800-432-2737). We're wishing you the best and we appreciate you reaching out to us. - Guy@GEA
Crap
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quit working after 3 weeks. Best Buy sent me to manufacture who gave me a whole new level of the run around. Still find it hard to believe all of this nonsense over a microwave.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The time display is too small and close together, very difficult to read time. Also I saw a print of this and the numbers were green, which is the color I want. They are blinding white on the one I got.

Posted .Hi there, and thank you for taking the time to reach out to us - we hate to hear you're not satisfied with your microwave. This model's clock display is not designed to have a space between the numbers and colon, so the numbers are indeed closer together than with some other models. Regarding the color, the pictures on our GE website show the model with both a white light display and green light display; we regret that you didn't receive the color you were wanting, and are dissatisfied with the microwave's display. Your feedback will certainly be sent to our Microwave Design team for future review; we appreciate you sharing your insight, as we always want to be aware of our consumers' concerns. If you have any other concerns or questions, we're glad to help. -Sarah@GEA

Only lasted two years
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had this microwave two years and it just started tripping the circuit every time I use it. It would be $200 to repair when the microwave only cost me $200 to purchase. I will be buying a new microwave and it will not be GE.
