Simple easy to install sleek and quiet
I recently bought his to replace my old microwave because it was getting very loud and old, super easy to install, sleek, just wanted I needed and super quiet! Everything I was looking for for a great price

We love our new microwave (replaced a 22 year old GE Spacesaver). Looks sleek and works great. We’ve had it for about a month and it gets used daily. Also really like the bright lights underneath to brighten the range top - Didn’t realize how poorly lit the stove had been until we turned these on! We also installed it ourselves (we are not technical people so I was scared) but just read the instructions a few times before you start and you’ll be fine! Hope this one lasts as long as the last one! Now I need new stainless steel stove and oven to match :) **Pictures show with surface light off then on.
Thank you for putting your trust in GE Appliances and choosing our microwave unit for your home. We think you’ll be impressed with the features on this unit. We hope you continue to enjoy it for many years! Dianna@GE Appliances

Great microwave oven. It replaced an 8 year old GE microwave and it matched my appliance package perfectly. Tons of great features at an entry level price point.

I bought a microwave that went above my stove. It’s very nice. It works great… they promised me that BN and installed by Wednesday and then they canceled to the following Monday bit of an inconvenience but oh well

Fit easily above the stove to replace the previous microwave. Stainless steel color stays clean and matches our refrigerator. Works great!

Over the range microware was perfectly measured and fit perfectly. Delivery and Install was seamless. Beautiful from the outside and internally works awesome. Easy to use!

Very reasonable price for a great product. I’m a pretty text savvy person but when it comes to a microwave I just wanted to warm up or cook my food. I give this microwave five stars. Not a lot of bells and whistle‘s but works great and looks great as well. Works just as good as a convectional microwave and only half the price

Great micro, great price. Only wish that the panel was backlit so you could see it in the dark. But i chose the bottom model because the swap was necessary and it was in stock at the store. Timing was an issue. It wouldnt have been too long to get it, like 4 days, but personal timeline dictated immediate in hand. I strongly recommend this otr micro

Finally I have a microwave with a working turntable. I’m very satisfied with my purchase. My son and grandson installed it with minimal problems. Microwave is easy to use and I got it for a good price.

I ordered this microwave because mine had died. When I was ready to install it, I took it out of the box and the front glass was completely smashed and unusable. I took it back to the store and they were so helpful in returning it, but unfortunately, had no other "open box" units that they could replace it with. So, they returned the money for the microwave to my credit card and told me that the nearest store that had the same product was a little over an hour away. So, I went online and I reordered they same exact product from the other store. When I returned home with the new microwave and unboxed it I discovered that even though the model numbers and the SKU numbers were exactly the same on both microwaves the new one I received was not as nice as the original microwave I had purchased. The holes I had already drilled for the first microwave did not line up with the new microwave and overall it just felt like a cheaper version on what I had originally purchased. At this point, I had already taken out my original microwave that had died, drilled new holes and had everything ready for the new microwave I had purchased, but then had to take it all out because the microwave was broken, and now had drilled and installed new hardware for the microwave I currently had in my possesion...so, I just decided I could live with this microwave. But I am still disappointed that both units were different.

Love my new microwave! I have an older kitchen in my condo which is getting a total rehab next year and the microwave was tiny and old and on the counter. I went ahead and got this one and installed some cheap cabinets overhear because there wasn’t a space for one yet. I love the microwave. It does everything I need a microwave to do. It’s a basic microwave. Perfect for my needs and such an upscaled version of that old microwave on the counter.
