    Impossible to DIY handle replacement

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The microwave does everything it’s supposed to. But the handle cracked off and the screws (inside the door!)to replace handle require the door be removed. The cost of repair is more than a new one.

    I have to press the buttons EXTREMELY hard to get them to register. I spoke with a friend who purchased the same oven, and she has the same problem. Also, if you don't press "start" right away, it resets itself and you have to reenter everything.

      We appreciate you taking the time to leave us your review. The buttons on your microwave should not take excessive force to be pushed. If they do, service may be needed. You can schedule that by calling 833-426-3393. One of our Bodewell technicians can investigate thoroughly. -Kacie@GEAppliances GE_Appliances

    Exchange Samsung for GE microwave

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I like this simple model, has one button cook time for minutes 1 thru 6, has 30 second add button. I really like the white interior as makes it nice & bright. My previous model had a gray interior which I dreaded, as so dark. I also like the centered under microwave light for the cooking surface of my stove.

    Bought open box "excellent" -- doesn't work

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this microwave open box, rated "excellent" (which is described as, "Works and looks like new. Includes all parts and accessories. Packaging may vary or be absent.") At the store, we plugged it in and confirmed it powered on -- so I figured the "excellent" label was accurate. Unfortunately, once I got it home, I discovered the microwave was missing its mounting bracket and bolts. I called Best Buy and they said they were unable to locate these missing parts and all they could do was refund ~$17, the equivalent of the price difference between an "excellent" open box product and "good". I considered returning it, but figured it was worth spending that money to get the missing piece from GE. Fast forward a week of waiting for the piece to arrive, and I was able (after almost two hours of work) to get the microwave mounted on our wall. Only issue -- it doesn't heat food. I called GE and they sent a repairperson (under warranty), and we're now waiting for a backordered part to arrive...but I'm very disappointed that a product sold to me as "excellent" working order has been anything but.

    Over the range microwave

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Microwave works good. Had to return the first one because of a nut problem in the top where it bolts to the cabinet. Best buy took it back no question and ordered another one. Just had to wait another 3 days. After that it was all good. New one is quieter than the old one that was the same model but 12 years older.

    GE 1.6cf Microwave

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    GE 1.6cf Microwave works great, but I only give it a 4 star, because the fan is really loud. I would recommend this Microwave, but only if you don’t mind the loud noise the fan makes

    GE over the range microwave.

    I had a GE microwave prior to this one, it is much the same which is great except the options for specific foods on the reheat, which I miss. Otherwise I would give it a 5 rating. It's quick and efficient.

    We've had this Samsung microwave for approximately one month. We have had no electrical or mechanical problems so far. Simply, it works. It does exactly what a microwave should do. Yes, we would purchase it again, giving it an A+

    Noisy

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Turntable is noisy. Other than that, the unit is fine and as advertised. Sadly, the cost for the bezel for cabinet mounting is very expensive. It is more than a bezel, but still is expensive.

    Brought this microwave to replace a 7-year old similar model that stopped working. Great price and works well, but it really leaves fingerprints, and they don’t come out all the way.

    Great microwave for the money! Easy to install and match perfect with the range that we purchased around same time. Quality of materials is lower than 5 yrs ago! But this the quality we get now compared with 10 yrs ago.

    It's a good microwave, but it's definitely not like the previous one I had. It feels cheaper. Other then that it's working perfectly.

    Works great. No issues. Vents work much better than the old one we had. The keys can be a little hard to see at night. Other than that, no complaints

    The microwave has a stove vent and fit into the space we had, measurements were true as stated. It was fairly easy to install but the instructions were a little confusing the way they were written.
