Don't Try to Fix If It Is Not Broke
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I could have rated this Microwave oven a 5 if GE had left the express cook (1-6) buttton's program in place as it was with the old model. With This new model the (1-6) express cook buttons can only be used for a particular time, instead of vegies, pasta, soups, etc.

good microwave with one small problem
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far microwave has worked fine, although it's only been a week since it was installed, with one small issue--one of the filters underneath keeps falling out. I've managed to put it back, but apparently not securely so not sure how to make stay in place longer.

No More
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to replace a GE over the range microwave that had the door handle falling off. 1 year and 2 months after installation the handle is now falling off the new GE. 2 months past the warranty expiration of course. Lesson learned no more GE appliances in my home. It functioned very well while it had an intact door assembly.

Plastic trim disintegrated less than 5 years
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After owning for 4 years 11 months the plastic vent trim and control panel disintegrated. Unit would trip the breaker when opening the door. Ordered replacement fuse and switches. Before removing top screws noticed that the plastic trim was brittle and breaking apart. The trim had never been removed prior. The control panel plastic mounts had also broken resulting in it being loose on the bottom right. Unit could not be repaired due to faulty plastic.

I DO NOT Recommend!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Extremely disappointed. I bought two of these for my rental property and in less than two years, the over stove light stopped working in both units. The microwave works fine, but the light that provides a safer night-time cooking environment in now non-functional and it will cost me as much to have Best Buy even take a look at it as it will cost to buy and install a brand new unit. I'm very annoyed and feel like I wasted too much money on these microwaves.

Decent microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this because the handle on my original broke and it was cheaper to buy the whole microwave than just the handle.

I'll Tell You When I Finally Get It Installed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cannot tell you how it works as yet, as I am still waiting to get it installed by your Geek Squad/In-Home Services. I'm sure the product will be fine, as I have owned this make & a similar model before. but I was not satisfied with your in-home installation service at all & continue to await my appointment, which is now put off indefinitely due to Corona Virus related issues.
