No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GE Answers
Posted .Hi, thanks for reaching out. We did want to say that, while the turntable is turning, it is normal for the tray to hesitate, jerk, drag, or pause. If you have questions about the normal characteristics for a microwave, an article on our website titled NORMAL OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS FOR A MICROWAVE may be able to help. If you're still having issues, we'd recommend that you take advantage of your warranty as seen on page 19 of your Use and Care manual, here: https://files.bbystatic.com/0pksMLb6d99gAn8TNKKZqw%3D%3D/Owners%2BManual%2BJVM3160DFBB.pdf - We do hope this is helpful. All the best. -Michael@GEA
