Perfect bisque color and BRIGHT light on stove top

My old Maytag brand microwave quit cooking. I thought it would be difficult to match the bisque colors of the old microwave since it would be right over the Maytag stove and beside the Maytag fridge. But this GE was the perfect light color. The second great thing is that the lights of this microwave are so bright! I love it. There is high and low light. Low light was the brightness of my previous microwave. I put it in myself and my only trouble was that I had put some other holes in the upper cabinet with the original microwave. This new one would add an additional 3 holes. I ended up putting down a 1/4" piece of plywood in the cabinet and drilling the three new holes through that. The only problem I had besides that was with the glass turntable. It was much larger than the previous one and on the first day, I hit and CHIPPED the glass turntable as I was lifting a casserole dish into the oven. Am considering contacting GE.

Great price with all the easy to use features for all of us in the house. Popcorn button actually popped all the kernels in the mini-bag wuthout having to add time.

I bought the matching microwave to go with the electric stove. The microwave is large and rotates when cooking. The popcorn feature requires the size of the bag which I like. Plus it looks awesome over my stove.

Fast installers
Works fine. Quiet when operating.
(Clock display not as clear as older model.
It’s bright enough but numbers are too smashed together looking).
I would recommend this to a friend

Product was delayed after ordered. It was in good condition and had easy directions. We had ero change to recirculating air before install. It fit on existing wall mount but had to drill new holes in cabinets. Nice big handle, easy to operate, like the 1 touch program buttons. Door is a little noisier, white display is harder to read.

Bought this as a replacement for the 20 year old version that came with our house. This model is the current direct replacement from GE. The look is refreshed, newer model seems to be more powerful, features are similar. The only downside is that the door hinge is a little different on this new one and it actually rubs against the wall when we open it. The original one did not do this.

I love everything about this purchase from the price, product, delivery and installation. I am a very satisfied customer at the moment. The microwave looks amazing in my kitchen. My delivery window was 9-11 I got a call around 8:30, the delivery guy was in around 9am and out the door around 9:30. The tech was very professional and polite.

When I was looking for a new above the range microwave, I looked at many out there. I wanted one that didn’t break the bank and also did its job. Great microwave! I like the different options to choose from when reheating food and also the choices of the nightlight.

Overall the GE microwave is great. Does everything I need it to and more.
The install sucked. I have awkward cabinets which made it impossible to use the provide template for install. Also the provided hardware is not the highest of quality. I work in a construction field so I was able to make several measurements and get the holes drilled where I needed them.
If you are not familiar with tools, or comfortable drilling into your cabinets and walls, I would highly recommend paying for the install package.
