So far so good!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When my Maytag microwave died after nearly 19 years (yeah, no kidding), I naturally decided to replace it with another Maytag. It was a big mistake because it was actually much bigger than the measurements in the specs, it was noisy and inconsistent in operation. I knew this within 24 hours and arranged for the return. That meant I had to go on a hunt for a new one. I finally settled on this GE over-the-range microwave. Now let me sing its praises. The size is exactly as expected. It fits perfectly over my range without being overwhelming. It has a handle to open and the many features (express cook, add 30 seconds, time cook) though more than I am used to all turned out to be great. I actually LOVE this microwave. There will be no returning this one!

Great microwave with plenty of room
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was in need of a replacement microwave for over my stove because my other one had stopped heating. After searching Best Buy website I came across this one it was a perfect fit and a great price. I made the purchase and chose to pick it up in store the next day. After getting it home I began to install it and had minor issues with the template as I needed to re drill new holes. Took a little time to get it in place but once everything was drilled it was pretty quick. This microwave has plenty of room and is very quiet when operating. Cant beat it for the price. Well worth it.

GE Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Finally got it installed on 13 July 2020. It is easy to install but 2 people are needed to do the uninstall of the old one & the install of the new one. This one replaces the older model (same Manufacturer). The design of the door on this one is slightly different so it touches the cabinet door about 1/64 on an inch. Needed to install the hanging bracket and drill new holes through the cabinet above the microwave It took just under 1 hour from unpacking & complete install. It operates much like the older model, but keypad buttons are in different locations. When doing Express Cook, Keys 1 through 6, there is a slight delay when pressing the start button. I operates exactly like its' predecessor model. And for the cost of the unit I am very happy with it.

Good Microwave, Good Venting, Great Cooking.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had this Microwave just a few months and so far we are pleased. Easy Install, Great Cooking, and Good Venting. The door is a little clunky with plastic catches so be careful and the Control panel needs to be back lighted. All and All....Have to give it an Excellent rating.

Basic Unit - limited Convenience Cooking options
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A good, solid but very basic microwave. Doesn’t have any significant Convenience Cooking functions beyond Popcorn and Potato. The unit has a hollow sound when closing the door and the vent is pretty loud. It was inexpensive and fit the opening. It was easy to install but too bad every brand has a different wall bracket and upper cabinet hole locations.

Disappointed
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The unit delivered was noticibly different from the one in the showroom. I had one of this model for years and then it broke when someone accidentally put a metal cup in the microwave. I wanted to replace it with one just like it. The one in the showroom was exactly like the one I had - same model number too. The one that was delivered also had the same model number except was very different. It was cheaply made and seemed to have no or very little insulation - very loud, door very light weight. The two small, incandescent lights underneath the orignal model had been replaced with one small hallogen bulb. The bulb was dim and produced so much heat that I nearly burnt my hand on the floor of the microwave after the light had been on for only 30 minutes. There were other cosmetic changes as well. I was so dissappointed in the numberous changes that cheapend the product that I sent it back and bought the Whilpool microwave. GE made so many changes that they should have given it a new model number and the old model in in the showroom should have been replaced with the new one.

Fantastic for the price!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave works well and the buttons are easy to figure out without having to break out the manual. If you leave time on the clock, it will flash "FOOD" after a while which is a little jarring when making a fridge raid for my midnight snacks. This microwave meets all my expectations but didn't blow me away in any way. It's a great performer for the price and well worth it for me.

Great Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very pleased with our new microwave. It was easy to install and very easy to use. Most of all, we were surprised how quiet it was when running. Has all the features that we use on a microwave and you can't beat the value for your money!

No backlight on control panel
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love appearance and performance of microwave. HOWEVER, the control panel has no backlighting therefore you cannot read the words or numbers. I have to keep a flashlight on the counter in order to use the microwave. This is definitely a flaw. Had I found these kinds of comments in the review I would not have ordered. It is extremely inconvenient to use but performance is exceptional; way better than our old one which was 17 years old but still working. It was a GE also.

Good replacement for old Spacemaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace my old GE Spacemaker. Got the first one with unaligned door and replaced with a new. Build quality is so plasticky not as solid as the old spacemaker. Mounting bracket has only two screws instead of four. Similar operation logic and functions to the old. Hopefully it can last for 15 years as my old one was.
