    This was a replacement for an older GE over range microwave that died. It fit perfectly and installation was relatively simple. It helped that the previous oven was also a GE, though the vent was slightly different so required a bit of work to connect. Overall it was simple to install. The features and performance are what I would expect. Water heats up quickly and food splatters if you don't cover it. The latter is an operator issue not the microwave! For the money it was well worth it. Just hope it lasts for a while!

    For the money it's a good value!. Works well, no issues. Even mounted easy using the same mounting bracket. Replaced a GE space saver that finally failed at 15 yrs.

    Purchased this to replace a broken one in a new to us condo. This met size and color requirements and was available for pick up in two days. I had ordered one somewhere else and after two weeks they called to tell me it was back ordered. Installation was straightforward and it is really quiet. For some reason the vent fan comes on automatically on some settings which is a kind of loud. So far it works well.

    Very Good Value

    A very good value for the price. Minor comments re: the keypad. Its layout is a bit counter-intuitive, and one also has to really press the keys (no light touching here) to get them to work. Also, the contrast of the lettering, etc., of the keypad against the background is not strong, making the keypad difficult to read in dim light. In the next iteration of the product, I would strongly encourage the manufacturer to give this aspect of the product more careful attention. Otherwise, the microwave itself works fine.

    Does what it supposed to

    Does it's job. Good enough for daily use. The front door needs frequent cleaning as it attracts figure prints easily. The price is way more now than I purchased last year for the same unit. So not sure what is going on with best buy and GE. The surface light the unit comes with is yellow so had to purchase a day light white aftermarket bulb. After sale customer service is questionable so do you research before buying. There are better options available at current price point.

    Old GE Microwave died after 13 years. Got another GE microwave which was easy to install. Looking forward to years of use from our new microwave.

    bad installation instructions

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

    The manual instructs you in how to position the fan before installing, but apparently there are 2 different manuals for it--I learned through reading through a bunch of FAQs when my fan didn't work right after first installation. The customer service agent who responded to that customer included a link to the correct manual. Taking it down, repositioning the fan, and reinstalling it to the cabinet was a pain, but it made the fan work. Be certain the directions make sense, given how you need it to exhaust, and realize it may not be correct. I think the picture may have been right in my manual but the text was definitely wrong. Recently, however, the fan on low speed sounds funny some of the time; we'll see . . . But finding a trouble free microwave seems a problem, given reviews I've read. At least this one wasn't expensive. I like its features fine. It throws better light on my rangetop than my last 2 micros and runs very quietly if not using the exhaust fan.

    Shopped around for best price and known brand. Read customers remarks, and looked for local store. Made my decision, and got a G.E. on line. BEST BUY sent a E-Mail to pick it up the next day with curb service. The G.E. works better then the old one and it is so quite, you can hardly hear it running. I recommend Microwave and Best-buy, very easy experience.

    Replaced an older model of the same make and model. Pleased overall with performance and build quality. Sensitivity of the touch pad is much less than the old model so has taken some time to get use to. Original model lasted 8 years, though we did pop a lot of popcorn, which is not recommended by many reviewers. Also, we mainly used the burner under the control panel in the stove below without turning on the exhaust fan, also not recommended. We are being more careful with the new model and hope that it will last at least the predicted 10 years, hopefully longer. We had it installed by Best Buy, will not do this again due to a bad experience with their contracted installer.

    Bought this to replace the same model we purchased 3 years ago to make mounting installation easier. Old one just suddenly stopped working completely. Even the clock stopped working. I suspect it might have been an easy repair but a service call would be close to the price of a new unit so we oped for the new unit. Warranty is only 1 year but not worth the price of getting an extended warranty. We were happy with the unit until it failed and is attractive looking.
