    I have a small gally kitchen so I was looking for a small microwave. Best Buy is the only place that I could find it at let alone walk out the door with it right after I walked in the door for one. Exactly what I was looking for, thanks Best Buy!

    Microwave replacement for a prior version that lasted over 10 years. This is a great value microwave - especially given all the inflation we have seen since COVID - this was not overpriced.

    This microwave replaced the same model that only lasted 3 years. The decision to stay with the same GE model was because it being an easy fit over the range and we did like the former one but-unfortunately it just completely stopped working . The newer one doesn’t seem to be exactly the same there are some changes, only slight ones and the microwave doesn’t seem as sturdy either. Hoping this will last a bit longer, since when it was replaced it was like brand new. Wondering if there was a defect. As far as recommending this product I probably would have to wait and see if this Microwave has a longer life before doing any recommending

    The microwave does the job and operates well. It is not easy to use and the design is clunky. I first notice the time display is hard to read because the light behind the : in between the numbers is so bright the numbers are hard to see. The touch screen requires a hard press to enter the selection. For people who are not strong or who have hand pain this is difficult. The sound when opening and closing the door is loud. I needed to stay with this color and now wish I had spent more. It is OK for the price and does the job.

    It is a very good model with straight forward controls. I replaced a previous model that looked identical but found that the location of the top mounting bolts were in a different location so I had to drill new holes in the cabinet above. Other than that I am very satisfied.

    Got this new microwave as a replacement for my 15 year old microwave. This model and stainless steel body is shining all over. Very good features that you will find in most of the microwaves. I would definitely recommend this one to my friends. Right now it’s on sale at Best Buy. Too good for its price.

    We bought this for my mother in law since she no longer has sufficient motor skills and a difficulty pushing buttons. Totally simple operation, good heating of food and has this model has enabled her to once again use a microwave, which is so helpful for independent living.

    I installed the microwave by myself and found the instructions a little complicated to understand. The door caught in the upper left corner and I couldn't find any on-line help. Loosening some bolts and screws solved the problem. A back-lighted touch pad would get 5 stars.
