GE quality control is terrible.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got purchase home, found that box said was black, was white. Best Buy ordered a new unit with free pickup and delivery. After delivery, found was missing the bracket that bolts to the wall. Called GE, they "ordered" a replacement part, 2 weeks and still no bracket.

Replaced samed model from 2017!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ok, why would I buy the exact same model as I purchased in 2017 that failed so miserably? Because I did not want to re-invent the wheel. I wanted the new to fit the same footprint as the previous. I originally purchased this model (not from Best Buy) in 2017 and it failed shortly after the warranty expired. The cost to fix and install was almost as much as a new one. So if you buy this model, buy the 5 year warranty.

Product Design and human factors
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Under unit light way too low. Lettering on controls way too light and hard to read. Pressure necessary to activate controls way too hard especially for older people with arthritis. It should be as easy to press as your mobile phone. Handle isn't anywhere near as comfortable to grip as the Kitchen Aid microwave. I was an industrial product designer. Give this product a very poor rating.

Doesn’t last!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It just stopped working. The microwave makes a humming noise, but does not heat anything. The repair cost is equivalent to purchasing a new one. This microwave replaced a KitchenAid microwave which lasted 25 years. My other microwave which is a GE countertop microwave is 19 years old and still going strong. Sadly, this one lasted 2.5 years, and of course it is out of warranty. Very disappointed!

Many defects
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Problems started immediately. It doesn’t make sound when the timer or cooking time is over. The motor gets very loud while cooking and then goes back to normal. The screen doesn’t always display properly, certain parts of it won’t light up. We haven’t had it a year and I don’t think it will last much longer.

Posted .Hello Alaskabob - We are very sorry to hear that your unit required repair after only six months. This is certainly not something we would expect to occur. Our hope is that the unit was quickly repaired under the product warranty, and that you receive many years of good service from the microwave. Thank you for choosing GE Appliances for your cooking needs. - TREY@GEA

Didn't even last 2 years
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm very disappointed. My GE microwave shorted out this week, less than 2 years of owning it. I had the electrician out to make sure it had nothing to do with our electricity and it didn't. My previous microwave lasted over 15 years. I wish I could remember which brand it was as I won't waste my time with GE again. Beware!

Posted .Hello KansasMom, thank you for your review. We are sincerely sorry your microwave stopped operating properly so soon into its lifespan. We truly understand how that would be frustrating. Please know that this is not the ownership experience we strive for. We hope we will have the opportunity to earn your trust back in the future. -Chris@GEA

Excellent value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We use it for reheating beverages and food as well as steaming vegetables. We have had this microwave for several weeks now and it is simple to operate and does a nice job. The fan works well as does the lighting. I'd buy this product again.

Big disappointment
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I brought this to replace one I had for 15 years. This one died 30 days after install. Had to call GE repair. They came and said the mother board went. They have to order it. Will be allegedly one week. Big disappointment to have a brand new microwave die. Had to buy a small counter one until this one is fixed. On another note. The fan runs whenever you use it and it is loud.

Microwave Not Good
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sadly, this microwave broke. It stopped working on 11/10/22. The warranty is not available, because it was good for only a year. I need to find someone to either fix it or buy another one. I would not recommend buying this brand microwave.
