No, I would not recommend this to a friendVery good product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very solid microwave. Only minor complaint is the location of the surface light button is less intuitive than I’d like. Harder to find in the dark than it could be.

Microwave is a DUD
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Microwave straight up died after 1 month of light to moderate use. It didn’t trip the breaker or anything. The plug it was plugged into still works just fine. We are on the phone with GE now, but I don’t know how helpful they will be. I don’t think I’ve ever bought an appliance and gotten 1 month out of it. Makes me nervous about the oven we bought with it!

Bad purchases
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only 3 months of use and it breaks down, didn't get extended warranty from best buy so i will have to try GE limited warranty, if you buy this get the extended warranty
No, I would not recommend this to a friendPurchase different brand. Do your research.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not recommended. Purchased this based on the model in the store, and had it installed. Does not look the same, GE changed the model but use the same sku number. So beware of a purchase based on demo's in the store. The one that came, is cheaper looking and sound like a tin can. I cant give it more than two stars, since I was duped. Do better GE.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendJust ok
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A little flimsy. Wasted space inside. No rack. On the cheap side.
