    Decent microwave for the price. However. I noticed the lettering/writing on the control panel or keypad is not easy to read. It would be helpful if they used brighter/whiter lettering.

    The microwave I ordered JVM3160DFWW was correct on the box, The actual microwave was JVM3160DF9WW. The 9 obviously makes the microwave cheaper as it only has one surface light and the display had 2.

    • Brand response from GE Answers

      The model number on the microwave itself may include an extra digit, when compared to the model number on the box. This is an engineering digit, and is there in case a technician ever needs to examine the appliance and identify specific manufacturing information. This extra digit does not mean you received the wrong model. If the microwave you received is different than a display you saw and you still believe you received a different unit than what you originally ordered, we recommend contacting Best Buy at 888-237-8289 to address this issue.

    This was a great purchase from Best Buy. Old old microwave burned out after 18 years. This one is perfect for us and the installers from Best Buy were the best! They were clean and did not leave a mess in my home as I have experienced in the past with other companies.

    For the price, you cannot beat this microwave. It’s quiet, efficient and the exhaust is pretty strong. Lots of “speed” buttons that makes things a little easier when microwaving. For the price, you just can’t get a better microwave or deal.

    If you need an over the stove microwave, this one is wonderful. This is our second time purchasing this model, both for remodeled kitchens. Easy to use, responsive and looks good installed. Have never had a problem with either one we purchased.

    Great product and simple to operate. Standard size that fit right into my cabinets without any struggle. Durable housing and handle that won't break or crack with shape and how it is attached to the door. Love the price.

    I previously had a GE microwave; in fact, I had it for 21 years without having any problems. I only bought a new one to match my new stainless appliances. Luckily, I was able to find the same size microwave as my previous one. Great delivery men!

    I wanted a microwave that would use the same bracket already mounted on my wall. I selected the same brand as previous, different model since old one was no longer available. Was able to minor adjust to fit. Installed myself. A bit tricky with cabinet configuration. Love it! Works great!

    We needed to get a microwave as a replacement and for it to fit exactly. It is one of the smaller over the counter units available. We had Best Buy install it and it fits perfectly and works great. It was highly rated by Consumer Report and is more quiet than our old one.

    In all honesty, I bought a different microwave which I carefully researched and thought was best for me and my home. When the installers arrived with it, it would not fit into the space. This GE was the only one Best Buy carried that would fit my space. The whole experience was a blessing in disguise. The GE fan is much quieter than the one I had ordered but seems to be just as strong. It is easy to use. I am really happy with it.
